The CURAD Sterile Plain Packing Strips (1″ width × 5 yd length) are premium wound-packing gauze crafted for open, draining, or tunneled wounds. Made of sterile, tightly-woven 100% cotton gauze, these strips resist fraying and linting — essential when managing complex wounds or sinus tracts.
Each strip is contained in its sterile packaging (commonly one strip per bottle or roll) for simplified, hygienic access. Ideal for use as a drainage conduit in open/infected wounds, boils, abscesses, fistulas, and sinus tunnels.
With a width of 1″ (~2.54 cm) and a length of 5 yards (~4.6 m), the design allows clinicians to cut to required lengths appropriate for wound depth and configuration. The lace-free, low-lint surface helps maintain wound bed integrity at dressing change.
