Askina® SilNet

Askina® SilNet is a thin, porous, soft silicone wound contact layer, consisting of a conformable non-woven material, coated on both sides with a soft silicone layer. Askina® SilNet is designed to protect the wound site from the mechanical disruption during dressing changes. It prevents adhesion of the secondary dressing to the wound surface and minimises the trauma associated with dressing changes. Its porous structure allows vertical passage of exudate into the secondary absorbing dressing, which should be changed as requiered. Askina® SilNet can be left in place for several days, as long as the exudate passes freely into the secondary dressing.
