Gauze Swabs

Gauze Swabs

Gauze swabs are the everyday absorbent square for cleaning around a wound, applying pressure, and prepping skin before a dressing goes on. They sit in almost every first aid kit and treatment room because they are simple, low-cost, and versatile. The choice usually comes down to ply and pack size: higher ply means more bulk and absorbency, while pack size depends on whether you're restocking a single home kit or a clinical space that goes through swabs daily.

Choosing the right pack size

For high-use settings, the Gauze Swabs 8 Ply - Aero (100) bulk box keeps a treatment room or busy workplace stocked without constant reordering. For a home or vehicle kit, the Gauze Swabs - Aero (3) small pack covers occasional use without overbuying. Both are sterile gauze swabs suited to general first aid and wound cleaning.

For help matching swabs and dressings to a specific injury, see our wound care and injury guidance. If you need a fuller dressing once the wound is cleaned, the absorbent dressings range covers heavier exudate. FAD is Australian owned and run from East Bendigo, so call the team on 03 5443 2239 if you're not sure which pack size suits your kit.

Always read the instructions for use.
