What is a Cotton Wool?
Cotton Wool is a material made from soft and fluffy cotton fibers, widely utilized for its absorbent and gentle properties. It is commonly used in wound dressing to provide a cushioning and protective layer for injuries. Available in various sizes, cotton wool can be tailored to fit different wound sizes and shapes.
In wound care, cotton wool serves multiple purposes. Its absorbent nature helps to manage wound exudate, preventing excessive moisture build-up and maintaining a moist healing environment. The cushioning effect of cotton wool helps to protect the wound from external contaminants and provides comfort to the patient.

Our production facilities in India, China, and the USA are ISO and CE certified, and we adhere to all applicable healthcare and regulatory guidelines.
