- No strike-through: No fear of garments or bedding being stained and reduces cross infection
- Waterproof and bacteria-proof outermost layer

Instructions
The dressings should not:

- Be used in wounds that extend to reach bones or muscles
- Be used with oxidising agents such as hypochlorite solutions or hydrogen peroxide solutions, as this can break down the absorbent hydro-cellular component of the dressing
