The Burnaid range consists of sterile gel impregnated burn dressings and sachets and tubes of gel, for the immediate first aid treatment of burns. Burnaid rapidly cools the burn helping to prevent further tissue damage and aid the healing process, and offers the patient rapid and ongoing pain relief. The Burnaid Dressing consists of a 3mm thick pad of open cell foam impregnated with the Burnaid gel. When placed on a burn, a 3mm layer of gel is held on the skin. The cooling property of the dressing helps to halt the burn progression and minimizes further tissue damage. Furthermore being in excess of 90% water, the Dressing re-hydrates the burn. Burnaid Dressings are sterile and exhibit mild biocidal properties – helping to prevent secondary infection.
