The open mesh design sits directly on the wound and allows exudate to pass through to a secondary absorbent dressing above. This means the secondary dressing can be changed without disturbing the wound itself, reducing pain and protecting newly forming tissue. Mepitel can remain in place for up to 14 days. It is designed for a wide range of exuding wounds including skin tears, skin abrasions, sutured wounds, partial thickness burns, lacerations, skin grafts, diabetic foot ulcers, and venous and arterial leg ulcers. It can also be used as a protective layer on non-exuding wounds, blisters, and fragile skin. Available in 4 sizes, sold in boxes of 5 or 10 sterile dressings. Ships across Canada.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003e\n  \u003csummary style=\"font-weight:600; font-size:14px; cursor:pointer; color:#2563eb;\"\u003eRead More ▾\u003c\/summary\u003e\n  \u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:10px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eMepitel consists of a transparent, flexible polyamide net coated on both sides with Safetac soft silicone adhesive. The two-sided adhesion means it stays securely in place on the wound bed while also adhering gently to the surrounding dry skin. Because Safetac does not stick to moist wound surfaces, Mepitel can be lifted and repositioned without damaging the wound or causing pain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eThe open mesh structure allows wound exudate, topical ointments, and gels to pass through the dressing. This makes Mepitel compatible with a wide range of secondary dressings and topical treatments. It can also be used under compression bandaging and in conjunction with negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eMepitel does not dry out, does not leave residue on the skin, and maintains its properties over time. The transparent material allows visual inspection of the wound during wear without removing the dressing.
