Others: To cut costs, manufacturers often opt for polycotton blends over pure cotton, with little regard for its drawbacks. Polycotton's lack of breathability can lead to discomfort, irritation and itchiness especially in hot and humid conditions, as it traps more heat and moisture than cotton. While cotton is highly absorbent, the presence of polyester in polycotton blends reduces its absorbency. This can affect its performance in certain applications.
NIMBUS: Unlike polycotton, our 100% cotton gauze is highly breathable, allowing air to circulate freely around the wound. This helps to maintain a conducive environment for wound healing, and prevents moisture build-up, reducing the risk of infection. Cotton gauze dressings are flexible and conform easily to the contours of the body. This allows for a snug fit over the wound site ensuring optimal coverage and protection.
Others: The non-disclosure of ply count on packaging can make it difficult for healthcare providers to assess the accuracy of the dressing for specific applications. Without knowing the ply count, it is challenging to ensure consistent outcomes across different products. When purchasing gauze without visibility of ply count, healthcare providers not only receive a substandard product but also compromise the effectiveness of the wound care they provide.
NIMBUS: Our ply count serves as a key indicator of the quality and integrity of our products. It allows healthcare providers to assess the thickness and absorbency of the gauze dressing, which are essential factors for effective wound care. Accurate ply count information ensures that healthcare providers select the most suitable dressing for each patients needs.
Others: With multiple intermediaries involved in the supply-chain, products may take longer to reach the customer. Delays can occur at each stage of the process from manufacturing to distribution, resulting in longer lead times and slower responses to customer demand. Extended supply-chains often lead to higher transportation inventory and hidden costs.
NIMBUS: Cutting out middlemen such as retailers and wholesalers can lead to lower prices for healthcare buyers. By eliminating markups at each stage of the distribution chain, products can be offered at a more competitive price point. Direct delivery from our manufacturer can result in quicker shipping times since products do not need to pass through multiple distribution centres or retail outlets, guaranteeing customer satisfaction.
