Sterile Gauze Swabs 100x100mm 8-Ply Ster (5)

Sterile Gauze Swabs 100mm x 100mm x 8-Ply are one of the most widely used consumables across every clinical setting — from operating theatres and emergency departments to GP surgeries, community nursing, and first aid stations. Supplied 5 per sterile pack, they are individually sealed for aseptic use and ready to open directly onto a sterile field or procedure tray. The 8-ply construction delivers generous absorbency, structural durability, and a smooth surface suitable for wound cleaning, irrigation, debridement, and dressing application. The WHO Essential Medicines and Health Products guidelines recognise gauze swabs as a fundamental surgical and wound care consumable.

The 100x100mm format is the most commonly used swab size in general clinical practice, providing enough surface area for most wound dressing tasks without wasteful oversizing. The tightly woven gauze is lint-reduced to minimise fibre shedding, and the folded-edge design ensures no raw gauze edges contact the wound or tissue surface — reducing the risk of fibre retention within the wound bed.

In wound care applications, these swabs align with NICE wound care product guidance NG38, which recommends appropriate absorbent material selection based on wound type and exudate level. In surgical settings, they support theatre count procedures in line with AORN retained surgical item standards.

For larger surgical field coverage, see our Abdominal Swabs 450x370mm 4-Ply Sterile X-Ray 5/Pouch. For smaller wound applications, our Gauze Swabs 75mm x 75mm 8-Ply Sterile (5/pack) and Gauze Swabs 50mm x 50mm 8-Ply Sterile (20/pack) are available for paediatric and fine wound care needs.
