Alginates & Other Special Dressings

For the treatment of heavily exuding wounds

Alginates are polysaccharides that occur in the cell walls of brown algae and can also be produced by some bacteria.
They are salts of alginic acid and have a wide range of applications, among them they are used as special wound dressings in Wound Care.

Alginates (with and without silver) are some of the Special Products used in Wound Care as they are able to absorb wound exudate and create a moist wound environment. They are particularly suitable for the treatment of deep and heavily exuding wounds.

Alginate Dressings can support autolytic wound cleansing and are often used under compression dressings.

Strip wound closure are topical, adhesive strips for small wounds and cuts. Offering atraumatic, non-invasive wound closure without any of the damage of stitches, these strips are well tolerated by skin. They are very flexible and durable, adapting to the wound as it heals.

RCA Bignami has the appropriate technical capabilities for the manufacturing and packaging of these products.
