FAQs
What are Appeel Sterile Wipes?
Appeel Sterile Wipes are a sterile, silicone based medical adhesive remover presented in a single use wipe. They are specially designed to remove adhesive residue where pain and the risk of infection are a concern. With a no sting formula, they are ideal for removing adhesive tapes, small dressings and adhesive residue without damaging skin.
How do Appeel Sterile Wipes work?
When the silicone wipe comes into contact with the dressing it temporarily changes the surface energy of the skin, disrupting the adhesive properties between skin and dressing/device. This facilitates gentle removal of the dressing or adhesive residue.
Why use Appeel Sterile Wipes?
Appeel Sterile Wipes are ideal for use within a Hospital setting where many infection control teams have adopted a single use policy for hospital consumables. The Appeel range of medical adhesive removers reduce the pain and trauma so often associated with dressing change and won’t damage skin. The sterile presentation of Appeel Sterile Wipes makes them safe for use around wound sites and prevents the spread of infection. The wipe format is very easy to use and perfect for smaller areas. If you require sterile removal of large dressings, see
Appeel Sterile Sachet.
Are Appeel Sterile Wipes cost effective?
The single use formulation meets infection control policy requirements, minimises product waste and reduces overall wound care costs. Preventing skin damage and reducing pain and infection leads to better quality of life for patients and long term cost savings. The air tight packaging ensures sterility throughout the product’s three year shelf life.
