What is Hydrofiber Technology?
Hydrofiber Technology is a patented technology in which fibers of high-quality cellulose are carboxymethylated altering its structure to allow better absorbency and retention of fluid. When it is exposed to fluid, the fibers swell to form a clear, soft, cohesive gel structure that closely conforms to the wound bed. In addition, the gelling action prevents the lateral spread of fluid through the dressing to reduce the risk of maceration and promote a moist wound-healing environment
