These wound plasters are made from a clear polyurethane film, allowing you to monitor the wound without removing the dressing. These dressings are highly flexible and can conform to body shapes, making them ideal as primary dressings. They can be used to protect sutured areas post-surgery and for easy self-application during dressing changes. Additionally, they are waterproof, enabling the comfort of showering during the healing process.

Main Ingredients & Their Benefits:
-Adhesive Layer: The adhesive used in the Octacare Waterproof Wound Plaster is typically a medical-grade adhesive that provides strong adhesion to the skin while being gentle enough to minimize irritation. This ensures that the plaster stays in place even when exposed to moisture, which is crucial for maintaining a sterile environment over the wound.
-Waterproof Material: The outer layer of the plaster is made from a waterproof material, often polyethylene or similar polymers. This feature protects the wound from water, dirt, and bacteria, allowing the user to wash hands or engage in activities without compromising the integrity of the dressing.
-Absorbent Pad: Inside the plaster, there is usually an absorbent pad made from materials like non-woven fabric or cellulose. This pad absorbs exudate (fluid that leaks out of wounds) and helps keep the wound dry while promoting healing by preventing maceration (softening and breaking down of skin due to prolonged exposure to moisture).
