Mepilex^® Border Comfort combines innovative Flex Technology with our proven Safetac^® technology to create a dressing that stays on and is still gentle.

Designed to conform and stay on

Our proprietary Flex Technology creates greater conformability, and a dressing that is more flexible than comparable bordered foam dressings ¹ . A dressing that moves with the patient and stays on even in the shower ² . Gives more time back to nurses to focus on care, not unscheduled dressing changes.

Smart exudate management

The 5-layer dressing absorbs, channels and traps exudate and allows you to track exudate progress. Keeping exudate away from the wound bed, and preventing re-entry, even under compression ³ .It has better exudate handling capacity than comparable dressings and can handle both normal and viscous exudate ^4  5 .

Reduced pain and trauma

Our proven Safetac^® technology means less pain ⁶  and trauma ⁶  during dressing changes, and reduced risk of maceration than traditional (adhesive) dressings ^7  8.

Areas of use

Mepilex Border Comfort can be used to treat a wide range of exuding chronic and acute wounds ⁹  such as diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, pressure ulcers*, skin tears and traumatic wounds. Available in five sizes in both square and rectangular shapes, it can be used on a wide range of wounds and can be considered your ‘go to’ all-in-one dressing.

Easy application

Our new proprietary three-part release liner makes it easy to apply Mepilex Border Comfort** ¹⁰ . So you can place your dressings accurately and securely – avoiding wrinkles, rolled edges and re-applications. Which could save time and reduce waste, too.
