Drawtex Hydroconductive Wound Dressings

Wounds that stall — heavily exuding ulcers, dehisced surgical sites, infected or sloughy beds — need more than a dressing that simply absorbs. Drawtex works by hydroconductive action: it actively draws exudate, bacteria, and cellular debris away from the wound bed and moves it laterally through the dressing, both horizontally and vertically. That mechanism, powered by LevaFiber technology, is what sets Drawtex apart from standard absorptive pads and makes it a go-to for chronic and complex wounds.

Because it lifts contaminants and slough off the surface, Drawtex supports a cleaner wound environment and can help prepare the bed for healing without disturbing new tissue at dressing changes. It manages exudate across the full spectrum — from moderate to very heavy — and is frequently chosen for venous leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, pressure injuries, and post-surgical wounds.

The collection covers the sizes clinicians actually reach for. Sterile squares and rectangles like the 2 x 2 inch (00300) and 6 x 8 inch (00303) suit smaller or shallow wounds, while the 3 x 39, 4 x 39, and 8 x 39 inch rolls (00305, 00306, 00307) let you trim and pack larger or irregular areas and tunneling wounds. For lower-limb swelling paired with wound drainage, the Drawtex Edema Wrap (00352) combines hydroconductive dressing with compression support.

Drawtex is non-adherent to the wound bed and can be layered or used under compression, and it works alongside a secondary cover dressing to secure it in place. Choose a size close to the wound dimensions, or cut sheeting to fit and pack cavities loosely.
