Foam dressing

Foam dressing

A moderately to heavily exuding wound needs a dressing that pulls fluid away from the surface while keeping the wound bed moist. Foam dressings do both, which makes them a workhorse across pressure injuries, leg ulcers, and post-surgical wounds.

Foam selection by exudate and skin

Within the category, the choice turns on exudate level and skin fragility. Allevyn and Biatain cover standard adhesive and non-adhesive foams for moderate to heavy drainage. Aquacel Foam adds a Hydrofiber layer beneath the foam for wounds that need extra fluid handling. Where the periwound skin is fragile and removal trauma is a risk, a silicone-faced foam is the safer pick.

Silicone-faced options sit in the silicone dressings collection. Our wound care resource walks through matching foam type to drainage and location. Allevyn, Biatain and Aquacel are all in stock here, so the foam gets matched to exudate level and skin type, not to a single supplier's catalogue.

Always read the instructions for use.
