ZMZPA 7 x 7-Inch Sacral Silicone Foam Dressing with Border, 40 Count

At 7 x 7 inches, this sacral silicone foam dressing provides broad coverage for the sacrum and buttocks. Its 5.3 x 4.3-inch absorbent pad is set within a bordered dressing, making it useful for managing wounds in an area that benefits from cushioning and fluid absorption.

The four-layer design combines a foam core, a fluid-lock layer, gentle silicone adhesive, and a semi-permeable waterproof film. That mix suits wound care needs where absorbency and a protective barrier matter more than the simple coverage of gauze.

What you’ll notice day to day

The foam dressing adds a cushioned layer over the affected area, while its absorbent core is designed to hold up to 15 times its weight in wound fluid. This can be useful when caring for sacral wounds or other areas with higher fluid output. The silicone adhesive is designed to attach to dry surrounding skin without sticking to the wound itself, helping make dressing changes gentler for delicate skin.

A semi-permeable film helps block liquids and contaminants while allowing oxygen and moisture vapor to pass through. In day-to-day care, that combination offers a practical alternative to gauze when a wound needs both absorbency and a protective covering. Customers also describe the dressing as comfortable and well cushioned, feedback on how easily it handles and how firmly it adheres is mixed, so careful placement on dry skin is useful.

What matters most

The 7 x 7-inch outer size gives the dressing a broad footprint, while the smaller absorbent pad focuses coverage over the wound area. Its four layers serve different purposes: the foam absorbs fluid and cushions, the SAF layer helps lock fluid in, the silicone border adheres to dry skin, and the PU film provides a waterproof, breathable barrier. The stated absorbency is up to 15 times the dressing’s weight in wound fluid, which may help reduce change frequency compared with traditional gauze.

The dressing is intended for sacral wounds, including pressure sores at stages 1–4, and is also suitable for surgical incisions, burns, skin tears, and arterial ulcers. For example, a caregiver managing a sacral wound at home can use the broad bordered format to cover the area while the absorbent pad manages fluid and the foam provides cushioning. It is also used in hospital, hospice, and home-care settings.

Practical tips

Position the absorbent pad over the wound and apply the silicone border to dry surrounding skin. The adhesive is designed to stay on the skin rather than the wound, supporting removal with less trauma during repeat dressing changes. The waterproof, breathable film offers a practical barrier in care situations where liquid protection and airflow are both useful. Follow the care plan provided by a healthcare professional for wound dressing changes.
