Non Adherent Dressing 5cm x 7.5cm - Aero (50)

The Aero non-adherent dressing is a low-adherent pad for covering cuts, grazes and minor burns, sized 5cm x 7.5cm and supplied in a box of 50. The pad has a non-adherent contact layer on both sides, so it can be applied either way up and is designed to lift away with less pulling at the wound when the dressing is changed. An absorbent inner core draws fluid away from the surface of the wound, which makes the pad a practical choice for weeping or lightly bleeding wounds.

A non-adherent dressing is the layer that sits directly against the wound. It keeps an absorbent pad from sticking to the wound bed, which is why this style is often chosen for grazes, skin tears, post-surgical wounds and minor burns where a standard dressing would catch on the surface. Secure it with a retention bandage, tape or a film dressing to hold it in place.

When to use a non-adherent dressing

Reach for a non-adherent pad when a wound is moist, weeping or healing and you want to avoid disturbing it each time the dressing is changed. For deeper, heavily bleeding or infected wounds, or any wound you are unsure about, see a doctor or call triple zero so a clinician can assess and treat it. Browse the non-adherent dressing range for other sizes, plus retention bandages, tapes and absorbent dressings to pair with this pad, read the essentials of wound dressing if you are choosing a dressing for the first time, and see our wound care and injury guidance for help matching a dressing to a wound.
