When caring for cuts or surgical wounds, preventing infections is a major concern. A vulnerable wound needs an environment that both protects against bacteria and promotes recovery without adhering. Advancis Actilite offers an advanced mesh dressing that combines science and nature to give your skin the calm and care it needs for a speedy recovery.
- Provides powerful antibacterial protection through the combination of Manuka honey and concentrated Manuka oil.
- Prevents adherence to the wound, making dressing changes more comfortable and protecting new tissue.
- Supports an optimally moist wound environment, which accelerates the natural healing of granulating tissue.
- Effectively neutralises odours without using masking perfumes.
How it works
Actilite is a light viscose mesh dressing coated with 99% Manuka honey and 1% Manuka oil. This synergistic combination has been shown in vitro to be effective against various infection-causing organisms. The open structure of the mesh allows wound fluid (exudate) to pass easily to a secondary dressing, while the osmotic action of the honey helps draw harmful tissue out of the wound bed. It is an innovative solution for infection prevention in various wound types.

Use & Dosage
Apply Actilite to the wound bed. The dressing can be placed side by side to cover large wound surfaces or cut to size with sharp scissors. Depending on the wound bed and the amount of exudate (wound fluid), the secondary dressing may be a wound film or dressing. Actilite can also be used under Negative Pressure Therapy (NPT) or as a primary layer to reduce the bacterial load.
Safety & Disclaimer
Although honey is not absorbed into the bloodstream, we recommend monitoring glucose levels in diabetic patients. Do not use if the patient is allergic to bee venom. Some discomfort may occur when applying the honey. This depends on the sensitivity of the wound and can be relieved with the appropriate level of analgesia. The initial discomfort generally subsides on its own. If the discomfort persists, application of the honey should be discontinued and the wound should then be rinsed with a saline solution.
