Smith and Nephew's Durafiber dressing is a soft sterile non-woven pad or ribbon dressing composed of cellulose ethyl sulphonate fibres.

This highly absorbent and conformable dressing is designed to rapidly form a clear, cool gel on contact with wound fluid. This gel absorbs excess fluid, locks exudate away from the wound, provides a moist environment to support autolytic debridement and conforms intimately to the wound bed.

The high integral wet strength of Durafiber facilitates easy one-piece removal from moist wound beds and cavity wounds; minimizing trauma to the wound and pain to the patient on removal.
