Acticoat Silver-coated antimicrobial barier dressing - 5cm x 5cm - Pack of 5

ACTICOAT Dressings use silver technology to create an effective barrier to bacterial penetration and optimal wound environment. The barrier function of the dressing may help reduce infection in partial and full-thickness wounds. The sustained release of silver also means fewer dressing changes, resulting in less exposure of the wound bed to the environment reducing the risk of infection

ACTICOATs antimicrobial technology is able to produce silver-coated polyethylene films that can release an effective concentration of silver over several days. As silver ions are consumed, additional silver is released from the dressing to provide an effective antimicrobial barrier. This patented silver-based antimicrobial technology can be applied to a wide range of medical devices including wound dressings.

Laboratory studies show that ACTICOAT dressing kills micro-organisms faster than conventional products such as silver sulfadiazine (1 percent cream) or silver nitrate (0.5%) solution. It has also been shown in-vitro to provide protection against more than 150 pathogens. The pathogens tested in the lab include resistant strains of bacteria such as antibiotic-resistant strains of Pseudomonas, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus and fungi. These pathogens have been known to infect many patients with already weakened immune systems. Infections contracted during hospitalization caused by these so-called superbugs and other organisms cost North American taxpayers an estimated $18 billion a year in additional hospital care.

Gets the job done, not sure for how long
Color: Rustic Wood
These were hard to assemble due to the screw needing to go behind a metal bar, meaning all of my shelves are wobbly and one is starting the cave in the corner some. Overall not too bad for the price (got it on sale, wouldn’t recommend paying full price. Also didn’t realize the wood was unfinished so it’s splintery (be careful, I got several splinters when assembling and putting up).

A great $30
Color: Grey, Color: Grey
The wood is cheap particle board (probably better bc they are very light weight) but the brackets are plenty strong and sturdy. Advice on the install: your walls may not be exactly 90 degrees. Install one bracket after the other is holding the shelf up. Super pretty.

Great shelves but be warned.
Color: Grey
These shelves are great for small items and can definitely hold up to their advertised weight if mounted in a stud. However, DO NOT use the longest screws at all. All the screws are low quality and are likely to break. The medium length ones are sufficient for everything. If your wall faces an exterior concrete wall: break off the tips on the dry wall anchors, they are too long.

These are a great corner option
Color: Rustic Wood
Was looking for something to set in some corners, and these fit the bill greatly. They are nice looking and easy to assemble and then put up. They hold a plant and some rock items nicely. A good purchase.
