Alginate Dressing

GLORY MEDICAL’s Alginate Dressing is a specialized wound care product derived from natural seaweed fibers, designed to handle highly exudative wounds such as venous ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, and partial-thickness burns. The unique structure of alginate allows the dressing to absorb up to 20 times its weight in wound fluid, transforming into a soft, gel-like substance that maintains a moist healing environment while preventing leakage. This gel formation also helps to protect the wound bed from trauma during dressing changes. A key benefit is its hemostatic property—alginate promotes blood clotting, making it effective for wounds with minor bleeding. The dressing is sterile, latex-free, and hypoallergenic, ensuring compatibility with sensitive skin. It can be left in place for 2-7 days, reducing the frequency of changes and minimizing disruption to the healing process. Available in various forms, including pads, ribbons, and ropes, it’s suitable for cavity wounds, tunneling wounds, and irregularly shaped wounds. Whether used in hospitals, long-term care facilities, or home care, GLORY MEDICAL’s Alginate Dressing provides reliable, effective management of challenging exudative wounds.
