Description
Medical-grade burn dressing saturated with a cooling gel. This gel is made according to a patented scientific formula. The wound is cooled immediately upon application of the Burnshield dressing and prevents further damage to already affected tissue.
Burnshield is a first aid treatment option for the initial phase of burns. It is a so-called hydrogel made from pure demineralized water, disinfecting Tea Tree oil, and a medicinal gel-forming agent. It is thicker than water and does not evaporate.
Burnshield can be used as an alternative in locations where no water is available and as a complement to cooling with (preferably) lukewarm water. The principle of heat extraction is applied in Burnshield.
The burn is cooled by transferring the heat from the damaged skin to the hydrogel. The heat is then released to the environment and not retained in the gel. The heat from the burn is therefore quickly dissipated. A layer of WaterJel dressing shields the burn from harmful bacteria, thus preventing infections.
Burnshield burn gel does not contain chemical or analgesic agents, but is based solely on natural products, achieving a safe and effective action in the treatment of thermal burns caused by fire, steam, hot liquids, radiant heat, or other non-chemical heat sources.
