AQUACEL® Ag+ dressings: a single solution that combines revolutionary AQUACEL®Ag+ Technology with proven Hydrofiber® Technology to fight the three key barriers to wound healing.

Ag+ dressings feature two powerful technologies working synergistically to manage the barriers to wound healing.

Ag+ Technology is a unique combination of silver and anti-biofilm agents that disrupts and breaks down biofilm slime to expose bacteria.
Kills a broad spectrum of bacteria, including antibiotic-resistant superbugs, with its reservoir of silver.
Prevents biofilm reformation.

Hydrofiber® Technology creates an ideal environment for healing and for Ag+ Technology to go to work;

Locks in excess wound exudate, bacteria and biofilm to help minimise cross infection and prevent maceration.
Micro-contours to the wound bed maintaining an optimal moisture balance and eliminating dead space where bacteria and biofilm can grow.
Responds to wound conditions by forming a cohesive gel, while helping to minimise pain associated with dressing changes.
