How it works

Three layers that protect against dirt and fluids, prevent infections and allow your skin to breathe

Sorbact Secure is designed according to a three-layer principle. The three layers protect the wound, prevent infections, and ensure that the plaster stays firmly in place, even when you are training or showering. The plaster’s unique bacteria-binding surface contains no antiseptic substances.

  1. Bacteria-binding surface

    The unique Sorbact surface binds bacteria from the wound, helping it to heal and preventing infection.

  2. Waterproof membrane

    A thin, self-adhesive film that follows the contours of the skin. The material ensures the plaster stays firmly in place, prevents moisture from entering the wound, and allows your skin to breathe.

  3. Absorbent pad

Instructions for use

How to apply Sorbact Secure

  1. Clean the wound. Remove the white protective film.

  2. Apply the plaster to shaved, dry skin with the green surface in direct contact with the wound. Press around the edges.

  3. Remove the top layer of film with the green border. The plaster can stay on for several days depending on the state of the wound.
