Product Overview
Dermarite - Aquarite Extra CMC - 40450 - Cellulose Dressing 4 x 5 Inch Rectangle
The Dermarite Aquarite Extra CMC is a highly absorbent cellulose dressing designed for effective wound management. Its soft, nonwoven structure is made from sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and reinforced cellulose fibers, providing superior conformability to wound bed surfaces. The dressing forms a gel upon contact with exudate, trapping debris and bacteria within the fibers while maintaining structural integrity even when saturated. This feature ensures easy removal without disrupting the wound.
With high vertical absorption, the dressing efficiently manages exudate, protecting the wound and surrounding skin from maceration. Its enhanced conformability allows it to adapt seamlessly to wound contours, promoting optimal healing conditions.

- Gel formation traps debris and bacteria within the dressing
- Maintains structure when saturated for easy removal
- Soft, conformable nonwoven material for wound bed adaptation
- High vertical absorption to prevent maceration
- Made from sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and strengthening cellulose fibers

Suggested Use:
Ideal for moderate to heavily exuding wounds, the Aquarite Extra CMC dressing is suitable for pressure ulcers, surgical wounds, and traumatic injuries.
