Mepilex® Up is a new and innovative non-bordered foam dressing designed to minimise the risk of leakage. Inspired by patient needs and clinician perspectives. Despite its thinness, Mepilex Up can effectively manage high volumes of wound fluid thanks to its capability to evenly spread and distribute wound fluid in all directions within the dressing. These unique spreading properties can contribute to long wear time and fewer dressing changes. 

Safetac®  is a soft silicone wound contact layer that adheres gently to intact skin but not the wound itself, thereby preventing damage to the peri-wound skin (e.g. skin stripping) and the wound bed.  As a result, it minimises associated pain on removal               . Safetac seals the wound edges, preventing wound fluid from leaking onto the surrounding skin, thus minimising the risk of maceration.

• The innovative dimpled foam improves the capillary action, allowing fluids to spread in all directions, even against gravity. 
• Absorbs and spreads both high- and low-viscosity fluids. 
• Designed to minimise leakage.
• Minimises the risk of maceration     
• Its low profile makes it highly conformable and easy to handle.
• Can be used on a wide range of wounds and locations.
• Can be cut to suit various wound shapes.

Mepilex Up is intended for a wide range of acute and hard-to-heal wounds with low to high wound fluid such as leg and foot ulcers, pressure injuries and traumatic wounds.

Mepilex Up can be used by lay persons under supervision of Healthcare Professionals. If you are concerned about your wound, please contact your Healthcare Professional
