The No. 13 Compressed Dressing is a highly absorbent emergency dressing engineered for managing critical haemorrhage and moderate wound care. Commonly known as a "mines" dressing due to its extensive use in the mining sector, this sterile pad compresses into a remarkably small package while expanding to provide substantial wound coverage when deployed. Ideal for trauma kits, workplace first aid supplies, and emergency response packs where space is at a premium.
