ABS Cotton Wool 500 gms (Pack of 5)

Surgical Cotton Wool – High Absorbency & Superior Quality

Absorbent cotton wool is one of those basics every clinic, hospital ward, salon and home first-aid kit relies on, and the quality of the cotton itself — how absorbent it is, how clean the edges are, whether fibres shed — makes a real difference in everyday use. This ABS Cotton Wool comes as a 500gm roll, packed 5 rolls to a case, and is manufactured using a fully automated bleaching process that gives it consistent whiteness and dependable absorbency batch after batch. Every batch is checked in in-house laboratories for consistency and purity, and reports from government-approved labs can be provided upon request, which is useful if your facility's procurement process needs documentation on file.

Special Features:

• Highly absorbent with low absorbency time, so it takes up fluid quickly and evenly for effective wound care.
• Consistent layering ensures even application and use, roll after roll.
• Smooth edges reduce the risk of irritation against skin or a wound margin.
• No loose fibers to maintain safety in medical applications, where shedding fibres are unwelcome.
• Free from foreign particles to uphold hygiene standards throughout handling and storage.
• High whiteness of over 85% (customizable as per requirement), a direct result of the automated bleaching process.

Key Benefits:

• Multi-purpose use for surgical procedures, beauty care, and baby care — the same soft, low-lint, highly absorbent cotton suits all three.
• Sterilization required before use for maximum safety (see the important note below).

Non-Sterile vs. Sterile: Why This Distinction Matters

This is a genuinely important point, and it is worth stating plainly rather than leaving it buried in a specifications table: as the product specification confirms, this cotton wool's sterility status is Non-Sterile. That means it is supplied as a bulk, general-purpose absorbent cotton — not as a pre-sterilized, ready-to-use wound-contact dressing straight out of the pack. Sterile dressings are individually processed and sealed to remain sterile until the pack is opened at the point of use. This ABS Cotton Wool is a different category of product: a high-quality absorbent base material that needs to be sterilized, following your facility's standard sterilization protocol, before it is used in any procedure where sterility is required. Treating a non-sterile product as though it were sterile would defeat the purpose of using surgical-grade cotton in the first place, so this step should never be skipped in a clinical setting.

Typical Uses:

In hospitals and clinics, absorbent cotton wool of this kind is generally used for routine wound care and first aid — cleaning around a wound site, absorbing fluid, and general dressing support — always after appropriate sterilization where the application calls for it. In home first-aid use, similar general-purpose cotton wool is commonly kept on hand for everyday cuts, grazes and general cleaning needs. Its multi-purpose grade also extends to beauty care and baby care settings, wherever a soft, highly absorbent, low-lint cotton is needed rather than just any cotton wool. As with any absorbent cotton product, it should be used appropriately for the setting, and sterilized first wherever the intended use requires a sterile product.

Storage Guidance:

Like most absorbent cotton products, this cotton wool is best kept in a cool, dry place, in its original polyethylene packaging, away from direct moisture and contamination, until it is needed. Keeping the roll sealed until use helps preserve its cleanliness and the qualities — whiteness, absorbency, and freedom from loose fibres — that this product is manufactured for.

Uses:

• Wound care
• First aid
