Non Adhesive Dressings

Non Adhesive Dressings

Melolin is the low-adherent dressing most Australian first aid kits and clinics already know: an absorbent pad with a film face that lifts off a wound without pulling at new tissue. It sits in a wider group of non-adherent, or low-adherent, dressings that act as the contact layer directly on the wound.

These dressings protect the surface and absorb light exudate while coming away cleanly at the next change, which matters most on grazes, skin tears and healing wounds where the new surface is fragile. FAD carries Melolin from Smith and Nephew alongside Interpose and Adaptic, so the choice comes down to the wound and the dressing size rather than the one brand a supplier carries. These are plain contact layers.

For a silicone face that releases even more gently on fragile skin, see the silicone dressings range; foam and island dressings cover different absorbency and fixation needs. Our wound care guide explains how to match a contact layer to a wound. That breadth of contact layers, plus the advanced ranges, is why clinics consolidate their dressing supply with FAD.

Always read the instructions for use.
