With its soft silicone adhesive on one side and a vapor permeable waterproof film on the other, Askina DresSil Sacrum combines the absorption capacity of the foam with the soft adhesion of the silicone contact layer:

• Protective polyurethane film: highly breathable – waterproof - bacteria barrier
