Further information
Duramax S offers an excellent balance of adhesion, flexibility, and absorption . The cross-linked silicone surface ensures that the dressing does not adhere to the wound bed, reducing the risk of pain and tissue damage during dressing changes. The dressing can also be used under standardized compression therapy (up to 40 mmHg) without losing its absorbency.
