JELONET WOUND DRESSING 5CM x 5CM
Tulle gras (thin light cloth) dressings have been used for many years for the management of wounds of all types. Structurally they comprise a gauze cloth impregnated with paraffin for non-traumatic removal or antiseptics such as chlorhexidine for prevention or treatment of infection. Tulle gras dressings are not absorbent and therefore require a secondary dressing.
Non-Medicated Paraffin Gauze Dressing
Jelonet is non-medicated, leno weave tulle gras dressing impregnated with soft paraffin, making it ideal for use with topical antibiotics or antiseptics. It is soothing and low-adherent, and allows the wound to drain freely into an absorbent secondary dressing. Jelonet is available in a wide range of sizes, the largest of which is suitable for use in burns units.
Features
- Soft paraffin base
- Sterile leno weave presentation
- Comprehensive size range
Benefits

- Jelonet is soothing and low-adherent and allows the wound to drain freely into an absorbent secondary dressing.
Maintains shape, resists fraying
- Jelonet is a sterile paraffin tulle gras dressing made from open weave gauze. The gauze has interlocking threads which minimise fraying when the dressing is cut to shape.
Can be combined with topical medication of choice
- Jelonet is not medicated and so is ideal for use with the topical antiseptic or antibiotic of choice.
Contraindications / Precautions
- Change dressing daily or more often according to the condition of the wound
