Askina® Carbosorb

Activated charcoal super absorbent dressing

Askina® Carbosorb provides a combination of a superabsorbent wound dressing and activated charcoal. Most wounds have a slight odor, and malodor is the most distressing and socially isolating symptom associated with wounds. With Askina® Carbosorb, you can manage excess exudate and malodor at the same time and have therefore more time to care for your patients.

Box of 10.

Advantages

  • High exudate control: Moderate to heavy exudate is absorbed.
