The military BurnTec hydrogel burn dressing is designed for environments where rapid, reliable, and practical use of first aid supplies is essential. The dressing consists of a non-woven material coated with hydrogel. When applied to the affected area, the hydrogel provides a cooling effect, helps absorb wound exudate, and maintains a moist wound environment.
The dressing does not adhere to damaged tissue, allowing it to be removed without causing additional mechanical trauma to the wound.
The military BurnTec variant uses the same hydrogel and non-woven backing technology as the civilian version, while its packaging and labelling are adapted for field and tactical environments. Its compact packaging makes it convenient to carry in an individual first aid kit (IFAK), medical bag, or other emergency medical equipment.
BurnTec is designed to protect and cool the burn area during first aid until further casualty assessment or professional medical care can be provided. <\/p>\n

\nThe differences are being confirmed – likely packaging markings and colour. <\/p>\n
Is the composition the same?
\nOn available information, yes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
