3M™ Kerracel™ Gelling Fibre Dressing is a primary wound contact dressing with a high absorption capacity^{1*^{for the management of moderately to highly exuding, acute and chronic, deep or shallow wounds.}}

Made from 100% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) fibres, Kerracel Dressing absorbs and retains high levels of exudate^{2*^{forming a gel^{2*^{which conforms to the wound bed and supports a moist wound healing environment. As fluid is absorbed vertically and locked away², peri-wound skin is protected helping to avoid maceration⁴. The unstitched design aids micro-contouring to the wound bed^{3*^{, minimising dead space where bacteria can proliferate^{*^{. Conformability aids ease of application1, whilst its ability to retain integrity when wet^{2*^{helps to facilitate integral removal. ¹ Cook J.
