Askina® DresSil Sacrum

Foam dressing with silicone adhesive and additional adhesive border

Askina® DresSil Sacrum is a self adherent foam dressing with a 1,5 cm border for simple use and more security. Its triangular shape suits well to sacral area.

With its soft silicone adhesive on one side and a vapor permeable waterproof film on the other, Askina® DresSil Sacrum combines the absorption capacity of the foam with the soft adhesion of the silicone contact layer:

  • Protective polyurethane film: highly breathable – waterproof - bacteria barrier
  • Hydrophilic foam layer: regulates moisture - soft and conformable - excellent absorption capacity
  • Silicone adhesive layer: atraumatic - open structure to let exudates pass into the absorbent foam

  • Minimized trauma during dressing changes(1)
  • Significant absorption capacity
  • Easy to use
  • Good adaptability on difficult-to-dress areas and skin contours
  • Repositionable: can be cut to shape
