Skin health is mission critical

You need and expect solutions that work as hard as you do to prevent infection. As pioneers in skin protection, our AMD antimicrobial dressings—with the power of proven, affordable PHMB (polyhexamethylene biguanide)—helps arrest bacterial action while staying gentle on the skin.

Hard on bacteria. Easy on skin. 

Our line of antimicrobial dressings (AMD) is injected with 0.2% PHMB, a broad spectrum bacteria-killing polymer. PHMB provides protection against 15 gram-negative, gram-positive and fungi/yeast microorganisms1. It resists bacterial colonization and reduces bacterial penetration within the dressing. Proven to perform without negatively impacting epithelization and low to minimal cytotoxicity, it protects your work and your patients’ skin health.
