What is Flaminal Hydro Alginate Gel 5 x 15g?
Flaminal Hydro Alginate Gel is an advanced wound care gel supplied in five convenient 15g sachets. The sachet format provides hygienic single-use wound management and is particularly useful for clinics, community nursing teams, care homes, veterinary practices and patients requiring regular dressing changes.
Designed for mild to moderately exuding wounds, Flaminal Hydro supports wound healing by helping maintain moisture balance, encouraging tissue regeneration and assisting the body’s natural wound cleansing processes.
Flaminal Hydro Alginate Gel is a hydroactive alginate wound management gel designed to support moist wound healing and wound bed preparation. It helps facilitate autolytic debridement, the body’s natural process of removing dead or damaged tissue, while promoting healthy granulation tissue formation and skin repair.
The product is particularly suitable for wounds producing low to moderate amounts of exudate.
How Flaminal Hydro Works

The gel helps:
✓ Maintain a moist wound healing environment
✓ Support autolytic debridement
✓ Assist wound cleansing
✓ Promote healthy tissue regeneration
✓ Encourage granulation tissue formation
✓ Support wound bed preparation
