Sigvaris Non-Compression Liner

Why Choose Sigvaris Non-Compression Liner

In long-term compression therapy — particularly lymphoedema management — skin integrity is as important as the compression itself. Direct, repeated contact between compression material and skin causes friction, moisture buildup, and eventual breakdown, especially for patients wearing inelastic wraps or high-compression stockings daily. The Sigvaris Non-Compression Liner addresses this as a dedicated underlayer: zero added compression, a ~74% cotton-rich bacteriostatic fabric that wicks moisture and prevents odour, and an extra-thick cushioned sole from toe to heel. It also makes donning outer compression garments significantly easier, reducing the effort and skin stress of daily application — a meaningful factor for patients with dexterity limitations or sensitive skin.

Key Features

✔ Non-compressive design — zero added pressure to the limb

✔ Moisture-wicking, cotton-rich fabric (~74% cotton blend)

✔ Bacteriostatic properties to control odour and bacterial buildup

✔ Extra-thick cushioned sole from toe to heel for added comfort

✔ Soft construction gentle on sensitive and compromised skin

✔ Universal or one-size fit depending on model

Benefits

✔ Protects skin from friction and irritation caused by compression garments

✔ Wicks moisture to reduce risk of skin breakdown and maceration

✔ Bacteriostatic fabric controls odour during prolonged daily wear

✔ Improves donning ease for outer compression wraps and stockings

✔ Extends the functional life of outer compression garments

Clinical & Typical Applications

✔ Lymphoedema therapy — worn under inelastic wraps (e.g., Compreflex)

✔ Sensitive skin patients requiring a barrier layer under compression stockings

✔ Long-term compression wear with elevated skin integrity risk

✔ Post-surgical and wound care patients using compression therapy

✔ Patients with dexterity limitations requiring easier compression donning

Usage & Care

Don liner over the foot and leg before applying outer compression wrap or stocking. Smooth fabric to eliminate wrinkles — any bunching under compression will create pressure points. Machine wash on gentle cycle in cool water with mild detergent; hang or lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry, bleach, or iron. Replace when fabric shows wear or bacteriostatic properties diminish. Consult a certified lymphoedema therapist or clinician for guidance on liner use within your compression therapy protocol.
