Silicone Fibre Overlay
Silicone overlay for superior pressure relief
This silicone‑fibre overlay provides low‑level pressure redistribution for users who spend extended time in bed or on a mattress. It benefits people with spinal cord injury, elder care residents, and post‑surgical patients by reducing shear and improving skin ventilation. The silicone‑coated hollow‑core fibres create a breathable, cushioned surface that maintains loft and reduces friction. Clinicians can recommend it for clients at risk of pressure injuries, and it is machine‑washable for easy care.
The overlay uses silicone‑coated hollow‑core fibres that create a low‑friction, breathable surface. This technology promotes airflow and moisture management, helping to keep skin dry. The result is reduced risk of pressure injury for high‑risk users.
One side features a soft, breathable cotton top for comfort, while the opposite side has a water‑resistant polyurethane underside for durability. Users can flip the overlay to suit individual needs or preferences. This flexibility extends the usable life of the product.
Elasticised corner straps hold the overlay securely in place on any standard mattress. The straps prevent movement during transfers or repositioning, enhancing safety for both users and caregivers. This design reduces the need for frequent adjustments.
The silicone fibre overlay is fully machine‑washable, allowing easy cleaning without degrading performance. Regular washing helps maintain hygienic conditions for vulnerable skin. Clinicians can recommend it as part of a comprehensive pressure‑care regimen.
