The only multilayered silicone foam dressing powered by Hydrofiber® Technology

AQUACEL® Foam Pro is designed to promote wound healing in chronic and acute wounds through effective exudate management, and enhanced patient comfort – even those with fragile or sensitive skin.1,2

  • Designed to help heal wounds and protect against maceration
  • Adhesive does not stick to gloves or itself 1
  • Max recommended wear time 7 days
  • Soft, gentle, flexible and conformable *2
  • Can be cut to shape †
  • Viral and bacterial barrier *2
  • Easy to apply and remove *2
  • Water/shower proof *2
  • Effective under compression *5

Two proven technologies work together to manage the key challenges of wound management

Hydrofiber® Technology

Helps create an ideal environment for wound healing, and complements the skin's natural healing function.

  • Locks in wound exudate, helps protect peri-wound skin and reduces irritation. 2,3
  • Balances wound fluid levels, maintaining a moist wound-healing environment. 4

Unlike traditional foam dressings, the unique vertical gelling action absorbs, retains and locks away harmful components such as bacteria and excess exudate directly into its fibres which prevents lateral spread and creates an optimal environment for wound healing. *2,3,5

Silicone Technology

Protects against pain and trauma at dressing change with an all-over gentle silicone adhesive wound contact layer, helping to support patient compliance and comfort.

  • Helps minimize pain and trauma on removal – even for patients with fragile, friable and sensitive skin. *2
  • Designed to provide improved adhesion for typically hard to dress anatomical areas (e.g Heel, Sacral). *2
  • Does not stick to itself or gloves during application or removal. †

A versatile foam dressing to promote healing with the Hydrofiber® difference

Protective Top Layer

Breathable PU film helps manage moisture vapour transmission and protects the wound from external contaminants and risk of infection. *2

Dressing Core

Multilayered silicone foam dressing, powered by Hydrofiber® Technology, vertically wicks and locks away exudate to prevent lateral spread. The foam layer absorbs excess moisture. This helps reduce the risk of leakage and maceration of peri wound skin, even under pressure. *1 5

Gentle silicone adhesive wound contact layer

Provides secure and skin-friendly adhesion2, designed to stay in place for 7 days. †
