- Breathable film that lets oxygen in and moisture vapour out
- Picture-frame delivery makes placement accurate and easy, minimising the potential to stick to gloves or to itself
- Breathable film, allows oxygen in and moisture vapour out
- Sterile, waterproof dressing that provides a breathable bacterial and viral barrier to outside contaminants and allows the patient to shower*
