Steroplast Paraffin Gauze for Minor Burns and Wounds
Steroplast Paraffin Gauze is a sterile, low-adherent dressing designed for use on minor burns, scalds, abrasions and other superficial wounds. Impregnated with white soft paraffin BP, it helps maintain a moist wound environment to support the body’s natural healing process.
Suitable for clinical use and first aid kits, this dressing can be used for wounds healing by secondary intention, including donor and recipient graft sites and cracked nipples. The paraffin layer helps reduce the risk of the dressing sticking to the wound, helping to minimise discomfort during dressing changes.
Each pack contains ten 10cm x 10cm sterile dressings supplied in a protective plastic case for practical storage.

Application Guidance
When to Seek Medical Assistance
Steroplast Paraffin Gauze is designed for use on minor wounds, but professional medical advice may be needed if:
- The wound worsens, becomes larger or deeper, or causes increasing pain.
- There are signs of infection, such as yellow discharge, persistent redness, warmth around the area, or an unpleasant smell.
- The dressing becomes soaked with fluid or exudate at a high or ongoing level.
- A minor wound shows no signs of improvement within a week, or a larger wound appears to be healing slowly.
- You experience signs of sensitivity or an allergic reaction, such as itching or a rash after use.
- The wound area becomes numb, changes colour, such as turning bluish, or shows significant swelling.
