The Burnshield Sterile Burn Dressing is an open-cell foam dressing that is designed for optimal heat dissipation and gel retention. The dressing conforms to the wound area and acts as a natural covering, which keeps the burn area moist and clean. It cools and soothes the wound, minimising pain relief, shock and infection. The Burnshield Sterile Burn Dressing is non-toxic, non-adherent and non-irritant. The Burnshield Sterile Burn Dressing is made from a fibreless elastic open-cell foam sheeting. It contains 1% Melaleuca alt. (Tea tree oil) and 96% purified water.
