When you or a family member sustains a wound, you want to treat it immediately in a safe and hygienic way to limit discomfort. Untreated wounds can attract dirt, which disrupts the natural healing process. The Heltiq Gauze compress offers the reliable support needed to effectively clean and cover both dry and moist wounds, so you can continue your daily routine with peace of mind.
- Individually sterile packed for hygienic treatment directly from the packaging.
- Manufactured from 100% cotton, which ensures a soft structure that helps prevent skin irritation.
- High absorption capacity due to the fine woven structure, ideal for absorbing wound exudate.
- Fray-free design retains its shape, ensuring the compress remains comfortably on the wound.
How it works
This woven compress is designed as a versatile tool in the first aid kit for the whole family. The cotton material acts as a barrier against dirt and bacteria while maintaining breathability. Due to the specific weave, the compress can hold large amounts of fluid, which is essential for moist wounds, while for dry wounds with a scab, it forms a soft protective layer against friction from clothing.

Use & Dosage
The gauze compress can be applied to the clean wound immediately after cleaning to absorb wound exudate (if it is a moist wound) and to protect the wound. Clean and disinfect the wound with a wound disinfectant. You can use a gauze compress to apply this disinfectant. Only remove the gauze compress from the packaging at the last moment. Hold the gauze compress between your thumb and index finger in a small corner or use tweezers. Cover the wound with the gauze compress. Then bandage with a self-adhesive bandage or an elastic fixation bandage and secure it with a HeltiQ Adhesive Plaster. Check the wound regularly for leakage or adhesion and change the compress daily or more often if necessary.
