Key Features of Urgocell Adhesive Dressings

Urgocell® Adhesive is a super Lipido-colloid (TLC), exclusive patented innovation by Urgo Laboratories. It is an absorbent lipido colloid adhesive dressing which is composed by three layers:

* Non adherent lipido colloid interface (hydrocolloid-petroleum jelly-cohesive polymers and a polyester mesh) on contact with the wound.
* Expanded super absorbent polyurethane foam pad
* Non woven, semi permeable 100 % polyurethane backing with an excellent cutaneous tolerance

Absorption of exudates

The super-absorbent polymer is characterised by a high capacity for vertical absorption of exudates are rapid kinetics.

Retention capacity of exudates under pressure

High vertical absorption and exudates retention capacity guarantees healing without maceration under compression. Formation of the Lipido-colloid gel on contact with exudates The hydrocolloid particles (CMC-Na) of the dressing in contact with the wound exudates hydrate to form a moist interface enabling healing in a moist environment. The petroleum jelly component increases non-adhesion to the wound Semi-permeable structure of the dressing’s non-woven backing The permeability of the external backing is responsible for the dressing’s extremely high permeability. Painless and atraumatic renewal
