Experience the gentle protection of Cuticell Contact silicone wound layer
Cuticell Contact is an innovative wound contact layer made of silicone, designed to optimize your wound healing. This thin, transparent layer provides one-sided adhesion and protects the wound bed without disrupting the healing process. Thanks to the skin-friendly silicone adhesive layer, Cuticell Contact only adheres to dry skin, ensuring that the wound bed and wound edges remain optimally protected against softening.
The open, perforated structure of Cuticell Contact ensures efficient drainage of exudate to a secondary dressing, allowing your wound to breathe properly. You can easily inspect the wound due to the transparency of the product. In addition, the one-sided adhesion makes it easy to apply Cuticell Contact, even when wearing gloves, and adapts effortlessly to the contours of the wound.
Cuticell Contact does not need to be cut to size and can be applied outside the wound edges without any problems. It does not stick to the secondary dressing, making it painless to remove. This makes its use very comfortable for both you and the patient.
