Easy application, gentle and secure fixation and discreet design make Mepore Film & Pad the ideal choice.
30 years of being there for you
Since 1979, more than 1.5 billion original Mepore dressings have been sold. Perhaps because Mepore was the world's first self-adhesive dressing*. Perhaps because of the continual performance updates, keeping up with the needs of patients and professionals and setting the standards for all conventional dressings along the way. But mostly, we think, for one simple unsurprising reason: dependable performance, shift in and shift out. Since day one.

How to use
Product description
The Mepore Film & Pad consists of a transparent polyurethane film coated with a polyacrylic adhesive and a wound pad. The wound pad is an absorbent viscose pad with a low-adherent wound contact layer. The vapour permeable film is water resistant and provides a barrier which protects from fluid strike through and bacterial contamination. Mepore Film & Pad conforms well to body contours.
