What Is Allevyn Non-Adhesive Foam Dressing?
Allevyn Non-Adhesive is a hydrocellular polyurethane foam dressing designed to absorb wound exudate and help maintain a moist wound environment. It uses a trilaminate structure consisting of a perforated wound contact layer, an absorbent foam core, and a breathable outer film that allows moisture vapor exchange while helping prevent leakage.
The dressing is commonly used in clinical and home care settings for wounds requiring sustained exudate management and protection of fragile skin.
Indications — Wound Types

- Venous leg ulcers
- Diabetic foot ulcers
- Surgical wounds
- Skin tears
- Donor sites
- First and second degree burns
- Traumatic wounds
- Moderate to heavily exuding wounds
How Allevyn Manages Wound Fluid
The hydrocellular foam core absorbs exudate and retains it within the dressing structure, helping reduce leakage and strike-through. This supports a controlled moist wound environment that is widely used in modern wound care protocols.
- Absorbs and locks in wound exudate
- Helps reduce maceration risk to surrounding skin
- Breathable outer film allows vapor transmission
- Non-adherent layer minimizes wound trauma on removal
- Conformable structure adapts to body contours
The dressing is designed to be left in place for extended wear time depending on wound condition and clinical protocol.
Application & Use
- Cleanse wound according to clinical protocol
- Select appropriate dressing size (can be cut if needed)
- Apply non-adherent side directly to wound bed
- Secure with secondary dressing or fixation wrap
- Monitor exudate level and change as needed
Important: Always use a secondary dressing for fixation and fluid control.
When to Change Dressing
- When exudate approaches dressing edge
