Elastoplast Antibacterial Fabric plasters have a wound pad containing antiseptic silver to help prevent infections. The fabric plasters are suitable for covering all types of smaller wounds. The material stretches with the skin's movements. The non-stick wound pad with antiseptic silver protects and cushions the wound. The strong adhesion ensures that the plaster stays in place. The plasters are available as strips which seal all around the wound.The use of silver has one big advantage: it reduces the risk of infection from the very beginning. Wound infections are the major cause of wound healing disturbances. And wound infections are not rare - up to 50% of acute wounds become infected! With a silver wound pad, you do the very best to prevent infection from occurring. Silver is a clinically proven, broad spectrum antimicrobial agent.
It kills nearly all relevant bacteria and fungi.
