3M Actisorb Silver 220, Activated Charcoal Dressing

3M Actisorb Silver 220 Activated-Charcoal Odour Dressing – Antibacterial Wound & Odour Management

A sterile, single-use activated-charcoal wound dressing designed to provide broad-spectrum antibacterial protection while helping manage wound odour and exudate. Its highly absorptive micropore foam structure wicks and retains fluid while remaining soft and flexible when moistened, with high tensile strength for reliable handling.

The dressing is made from polyvinyl alcohol foam and is non-cytotoxic. Its advanced formulation supports wound management through broad-spectrum antibacterial protection and autolytic debridement while helping preserve growth factors. It is suitable for a wide range of wounds, including pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, venous stasis ulcers, arterial ulcers, superficial burns, donor sites, postsurgical incisions, trauma wounds, abrasions, and lacerations.
