Features and Benefits

Tegaderm Transparent Film Dressings (Sterile)

3M™ Tegaderm™ Dressings consist of a thin film backing with a hypoallergenic, latex-free adhesive that gently, yet securely, adheres to skin. Tegaderm™ dressings are breathable, sterile, transparent, and waterproof, providing a barrier to external contaminants. Specially designed Tegaderm™ dressings, with unique shapes and securing tapes, provide solutions for difficult-to-dress wounds and I.V. catheters.

Tegaderm™ transparent dressings can be used to cover and protect catheter sites and wounds, maintain a moist environment for wound healing, act as a secondary dressing, protect at-risk skin, secure devices to the skin, and serve as a protective eye covering. They also provide a moist wound environment to facilitate autolytic debridement.

Tegaderm Transparent Film Roll (Nonsterile)

3M™ Tegaderm™ Transparent Film Roll offers maximum versatility and affordability for waterproof protection of skin and cover dressings. It protects at-risk, intact skin to help prevent skin breakdown caused by friction and bodily fluids. Non-sterile Tegaderm™ Film Roll is an affordable choice compared to separate sterile dressings, where appropriate. It can be significantly less expensive than traditional transparent film dressings and should be considered a lower-cost option for many applications.
