Universal drapes
BARRIER universal drapes and sets
Comprehensive range of impermeable and adaptable draping solutions for almost any procedure
BARRIER® Universal drapes and sets are easy-to-use and can be combined to meet most surgical needs.
The drapes are absorbing all over and completely impermeable to support infection control. The critical areas, closest to the wound, are also reinforced with a special material that is stronger and more absorbent (read about our zone-draping concept below). For even better fit, some of our BARRIER® universal drapes and sets are also available with BARRIER Flex stretchable, conformable adhesive edges. The designs and folding are made to ensure optimal aseptic handling and easy application.

BARRIER Flex
BARRIER Flex transparent, stretchable and conformable adhesive edges, allowing effective draping of the body contours. They maintain a secure seal when the abdomen is inflated during laparoscopic interventions or when head is moved or turned during neck surgeries. The adhesive provides a secure and strong seal even when in contact with excess liquid.
The Zone-draping concept means that the products are divided into three zones, with different characteristics depending on the distance from the surgical wound and the patient's skin. The performance is concentrated to where it is needed the most. Zone 1 is the critical zone near the surgical wound with a reinforcement material for extra strength and absorption. Zone 2, not far from the wound, consists of a three-layer material, with absorbing non-woven, an impermeable layer and a comfort layer towards the patient. Far from the wound, outside the part covering the patient, in zone 3, the drape offers both absorption and impermeability.
