HS heading 3005.90; sterile dressings are CE-marked under MDR with Notified Body assessment.
Modern wound care matches the dressing to the wound. Island dressings — a sterile pad with an adhesive border — suit minor wounds and post-operative incisions. Foam dressings absorb moderate-to-heavy exudate and cushion the wound. Hydrocolloid dressings maintain the moist environment that supports healing in lightly exuding wounds. Transparent film protects superficial wounds and IV sites while staying waterproof and breathable. A buyer building a wound-care range stocks across these to serve different wound types and care settings.
Sterile dressings are EO- or gamma-sterilised to SAL 10⁻⁶, with sterilisation validation records and SAL certificates per lot — part of the regulatory file your device registration requires. As higher-class sterile devices, they carry CE marking under MDR with a Notified Body certificate, supplied before order.
Minimums start at 10,000 pieces. Own-brand sterile-barrier packaging with ISO 15223 symbols is supported.
A foam dressing — high absorbency and cushioning for moderate-to-heavy exudate. For moist healing of light-exudate wounds, hydrocolloid is preferred.
