Description
Smith & Nephew ALLEVYN Gentle Border Lite Silicone Foam Dressing – 5 Configurations – Sold as 6 bx/cs is a silicone foam dressing from Smith & Nephew that absorbs and locks away exudate behind a gentle silicone contact layer that lifts without stripping skin. The line covers sizes from 2 1/8" x 4¾" to 6" x 6" across 5 configurations, so wound care and prevention teams can match the exact size to the wound and the protocol. Each configuration is sold as 6 bx/cs with its own item number and price.
- Pressure Redistribution – Suitable for lightly exuding wounds and to help prevent medical device-related pressure injuries (MDRPIs).
- Silicone Contact Layer – A versatile silicone adhesive foam dressing suitable for acute and chronic wounds, featuring a highly breathable film, absorbent hydrocellular foam core and a silicone adhesive-coated wound contact layer.
- Full Size Range – Configurations span sizes from 2 1/8" x 4¾" to 6" x 6", which keeps one item-number system across the whole range.
- Department Packaging – Sold as 6 bx/cs, so supply rooms can stock at the level each department actually uses.
Silicone Foam Dressing Built for Exudate management and pressure injury prevention protocols
For exudate management and pressure injury prevention protocols, the silicone foam dressing is specified around control, consistency and a setup the team can repeat. Triple-action technology maintains a moist wound environment. Suitable for use on patients with fragile skin, with a gentle silicone adhesive minimizing pain on removal. Easily conforms to body contours - even on hard-to-dress areas - and stays in place without the need for secondary retention. Allows the patient to shower with the dressing on, which may help to enhance quality of life. That consistency is what wound care and prevention teams feel first: the silicone foam dressing sets up fast and works as expected.

Why Choose This Silicone Foam Dressing
The ALLEVYN Gentle Border Lite earns its place on the par cart because every configuration is documented and priced on one listing. Buyers verify the specification once and reorder by item number after that. Staff open a familiar package each time, which keeps the setup consistent.
- Trained-In Behavior – Because the silicone foam dressing is consistent across sizes from 2 1/8" x 4¾" to 6" x 6", new staff learn one setup instead of several.
- Visible Stock Picture – A single listing shows the whole range at once, which makes gaps in the par cart easy to spot and fix.
