The ‘any time’ wound dressing

Copper is non-toxic and can be used throughout the wound care process. Don’t wait for a wound to become chronic or infected. Apply MedCu copper wound dressing from the first day.

Harness the power of nature

As a natural essential mineral for the human body, copper has been used for centuries to care for wounds. Today, copper is at the forefront of a revolution in advanced wound care.

The dressing patients ask for

MedCu copper dressings are non-adherent, with no need to pre-wet, and can be cut to ensure optimal fit for patient comfort.

Antibacterial

Copper exhibits the same or greater antibacterial properties than silver, in addition to being antiviral. Offering protection against even antibiotic-resistant pathogens makes copper the perfect choice to combat infection in wound care.
