Description
The DermaRite DermaBlue+ Foam Dressing colors its antimicrobial action right into the foam with methylene blue and gentian violet. Those ingredients, plus silver zirconium phosphate, work against a broad spectrum of wound bacteria. The foam needs no hydration, so it goes on straight from the package.
- Blue Antimicrobial Actives – Methylene blue and gentian violet work inside the foam.
- No Pre-Wetting – Ready to use without hydration, straight from the package.
- Micro-Pore Wicking – Fine pores wick exudate vertically away from the wound.
Antimicrobial Foam with Methylene Blue and Gentian Violet
DermaBlue+ Foam is an antimicrobial foam dressing that uses methylene blue, gentian violet and silver zirconium phosphate with no added surfactant. The micro-pore foam wicks exudate vertically while providing moist wound management and thermal insulation. Its antimicrobial ingredients provide broad spectrum protection in the dressing for up to 3 days. The foam is ready to use without hydration, stays breathable against the wound, and can be cut, fenestrated or layered to fit the wound. It manages moderate to heavily exuding partial and full thickness wounds, including diabetic foot ulcers, pressure injuries, venous stasis ulcers, arterial ulcers, surgical wounds and traumatic wounds.

Why Choose DermaBlue+ Foam
Most antimicrobial foams rely on a single active ingredient. DermaBlue+ Foam combines three, methylene blue, gentian violet and silver zirconium phosphate, in a foam that needs no pre-wetting. For exuding wounds where bioburden and drainage arrive together, that combination is the point.
- Triple Ingredient Action – Three antimicrobial ingredients work in the dressing against a broad spectrum of wound bacteria.
- Ready From the Package – No hydration step means faster application and no wasted activation time.
- Vertical Fluid Lock – Micro-pores pull exudate upward into the foam, away from the wound surface.
- Shapeable Foam – Cut, fenestrate or layer the foam to match the wound geometry.
