The Gran Cruz compress is a medical device used to absorb the exudate that is generated during the wound healing process. This can take the form of a clear or yellowish, foul-smelling fluid (pus). It all depends on the level of salubrity of the injury.
It also facilitates the cleansing of blood when minor surgery is performed or in cases of blows. These characteristics make it an indispensable item in the first aid kit. It is made of a hydrophilic material that stands out for its high level of absorption. It is a tubular knitted cotton fabric, sterilised and white in colour. It contains no grease or sizing and is notable for its soft texture.
The dressing contains 8 layers of hydrophilic cotton. It has been produced in accordance with the standards required for medical products. Its efficacy is guaranteed by the CE certificate, which proves that the essential health and safety requirements have been met.
To preserve the sterility of the gauze, it is packaged in individual sachets. This reduces the risk of them coming into contact with contaminants or impurities before use.
