• Provides a sustained release of silver ions for up to seven days
• Effective against a broad spectrum of wound pathogens
• Effectively prevents biofilms in vitro
• Manages low to highly exuding wounds
• Helps maintain a moist wound environment beneficial to wound healing
• Allows intact and pain-free removal, thus minimizing the risk of dressing adherence to the wound bed and fibers shedding
