Compression Gauze Sterile Tzmo 17 ply, 12 layers, Matocomp 5x (sterile wound dressing)

Matocomp 5x sterile compression gauze by Tzmo is a multilayer sterile wound dressing designed for absorption, compression and mechanical protection of acute and chronic wounds, postoperative sites and traumatic injuries. Constructed with 17 ply threads across 12 layers, this dressing provides a balance of absorbency and structural strength suitable for use as a primary contact layer or as a secondary absorbent and stabilizing dressing in medical and first-aid settings.

Advantages

The 12-layer construction with 17-ply yarn increases tensile strength and resistance to tearing while maintaining flexibility for conforming to body contours. Sterile packaging reduces infection risk and allows immediate use on open wounds. The gauze’s absorbent structure manages exudate, supports gentle compression, and helps maintain a protected wound environment during dressing changes.

Suitable for

• Absorption and protection of acute wounds and lacerations
• Management of chronic wounds and slow-healing ulcers
• Postoperative wound dressings and incision coverage
• Primary contact layer under secondary dressings or cast padding
• First-aid kits for emergency compression and stabilisation

Key specifications

• Sterile multilayer woven gauze construction
• 17-ply thread count for enhanced strength
• 12-layer design for increased absorbency and stability
• Designed for use as primary or secondary wound dressing
• Size suitable for localized wound coverage and bandaging

How to use

Open the sterile pack using aseptic technique and apply the gauze directly to the cleaned wound surface or over a primary contact dressing. Ensure the gauze covers the wound with adequate overlap on surrounding healthy skin. Secure the gauze with an appropriate secondary dressing, adhesive fixation, or compression bandage to achieve required pressure and immobilisation. Change the dressing according to wound condition, exudate levels and clinical guidance.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the wound regularly and follow local clinical protocols for dressing frequency. For heavily exuding wounds, consider combining this gauze with additional absorbent layers. Do not reuse; discard after single use. Seek professional medical advice for deep, infected or non-healing wounds.
