Product Overview
The Hartmann-Conco Sorbalgon Silver Calcium Alginate Dressing is a sterile, latex-free wound dressing designed for effective exudate management and infection control.

- Contains silver ions for antimicrobial protection against bacteria.
- Made from calcium alginate, which forms a gel upon contact with wound exudate to maintain a moist healing environment.
- Highly absorbent, helping to manage moderate to heavy exudate.
- Non-adherent and easy to remove without causing trauma to the wound bed.
- Sterile and latex-free, reducing the risk of irritation or allergic reactions.

Use Suggestion:
Ideal for partial- and full-thickness wounds, including pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, surgical wounds, and traumatic injuries. The ribbon shape is particularly suited for packing deep or irregular wounds. Change the dressing as needed based on exudate levels, typically every 1–3 days. For optimal results, cleanse the wound before application and cover with a secondary dressing if required.
