dressing to prevent exudate
from soiling clothing.
The interactive
Avelle™ NPWT Dressing
The Hydrofiber® Difference
The Hydrofiber® technology interface and inner layers within the Avelle™ NPWT Dressing are specially engineered into an apertured design to allow negative pressure transmission through to the wound.*
1. Perforated silicone adhesive borders
Specifically designed to secure the dressing in place while being gentle to the skin during
removal.
2. Hydrofiber® Technology wound contact layer
Stitch-bonded Hydrofiber® wound contact layer gels on contact with wound fluid and is
designed to maintain integrity on removal.11
3. Hydrofiber® Technology (8 layers)
Gel on contact with wound fluid and locks in bacteria within it.11,12* Fenestrations in the
Hydrofiber® Technology layers are designed to promote vertical fluid movement throughout the dressing.
4. Foam layer
Aids distribution of negative pressure across the dressing and to the wound bed.
5. Soft port
Designed to minimise the risk of pressure damage.
6. Film layer
The backing film permits evaporation of exudate, aiding overall fluid handling while
providing a bacterial, viral and showerproof barrier.11
