Cotton Wool
Absorbent medical-grade cotton wool for wound cleaning, dressing padding, and general clinical use.
Overview
Medical-grade cotton wool is a soft, highly absorbent material used for cleaning wounds and skin, padding under dressings and splints, and general swabbing tasks around a clinic or ward. Its high absorbency draws up blood and fluid without leaving fibres in a wound when used correctly, and it’s supplied in rolled or folded form for easy tearing to the size needed.
It’s a basic, high-turnover consumable stocked across nearly every department of a hospital or clinic.
Medix East Africa supplies the cotton wool in facility volumes with scheduled restocking, so departments are not left improvising between deliveries. Pricing is issued by formal quotation against your required quantities and delivery schedule.
