4. AUSTRALIAN MEDICAL
SHEEPSKIN: AS4480.1
Medical Sheepskins have been produced in
Australia for a very long time. When used
extensively in Hospitals and Nursing Homes
they were very effective. However, one
problem led to their decrease in popularity-
after washing, many sheepskins developed a
leather hardening. This hardening created
more problems than benefits for the user and
reduced their pressure sore prevention
effectiveness.

5. BEDSORE PREVENTION
PACKAGES
Bedsore Prevention for the whole body is
essential for people confined to a bed or
chair. Restricted movement can produce a
Pressure Sore that can develop in only 20
minutes and may take up to 6 months to heal.
Pressure Sore Prevention Packages contain
Pure New Wool products and Woolskin for
their cleaning, conditioning, and
disinfection.

6. PRESSURE SMART XD 1900
Pressure Smart XD1900 is the NEW SHEEPSKIN.
Pressure SmartXD1900 is produced from wool
shorn from Merino sheep. This wool is then fed
into a Sliverknit machine that produces a
fleece with a pile density greater than 1900g
of wool per square metre of surface. Pressure
mapping has shown that Pressure Smart XD1900
offers greater pressure reduction than most
Medical Sheepskins. Pressure Smart XD1900
products are machine washable + they can be
machine dried; shortening the turn-around time
between uses.
