Description
Molnlycke Healthcare Mepilex Border Flex Lite Dressing is a sterile, thin bordered foam dressing designed for non- to moderately exuding wounds. It combines a polyurethane foam pad with a soft silicone Safetac contact layer and a film backing to create a low-profile dressing that is comfortable to wear and suited to areas that can be difficult to cover securely.
The dressing is intended for use on abrasions, blisters, skin tears, cuts, and other hard-to-dress areas. Its self-adherent design helps it stay in place without sticking to the wound bed. This supports easier dressing changes and may help reduce wound trauma and stress on the surrounding skin.
Key Features
- Thin, bordered foam dressing with sterile construction
- Soft silicone Safetac contact layer designed not to adhere to the wound
- Flex Technology helps the dressing conform to body contours
- Moves in multiple directions to support wear on active areas

Materials and Design
The dressing is made from polyurethane foam and silicone. Its flexible structure is designed to follow body curves while maintaining contact around the wound area. The film backing adds protection while the absorbent layers manage exudate from light to moderate drainage.
