Burnaid Burn Gel Dressing Pad 10cm x 10cm — Cooling First Aid for Minor Burns

The Burnaid Burn Gel Dressing Pad is a sterile 3mm-thick open-cell foam pad pre-loaded with cooling Burnaid hydrogel. Apply it to a minor burn or scald to cool the tissue, ease pain, and protect the wound from contamination until a clinician assesses it. Burnaid is a registered Australian medical device used in workplaces, schools, sporting clubs, kitchens and household first aid kits across the country.

Why Burnaid is in serious first aid kits

  • Cools the burn area on contact — the hydrogel draws heat away to limit deeper tissue damage in the first crucial minutes.
  • Reduces pain — tea tree oil and the cooling gel layer create a moist barrier over exposed nerve endings.
  • Will not stick to the burn — the dressing peels off cleanly so the wound isn't re-injured at change-over.
  • Forms a sterile barrier against airborne contamination during transport to medical care.
  • Recommended in many Australian workplace first aid kit compositions referenced under SafeWork's Code of Practice.

How to use (Burns First Aid: Cool, Cover, Seek)

  1. Cool the burn first under cool running water for 20 minutes (the Australian and New Zealand Burn Association standard).
  2. Pat dry the surrounding skin gently — don't break blisters.
  3. Apply the Burnaid Pad gel-side down over the entire burn area.
  4. Secure lightly with a conforming bandage; don't compress.
  5. Seek medical assessment for any burn larger than a 20-cent coin, on the face, hands, feet, genitals, joints, or that goes deeper than redness.

When should I use Burnaid vs cool running water?+
Burnaid is NOT a replacement for cool running water — it's the next step. The Australian and New Zealand Burn Association advises 20 minutes of cool (not ice-cold) running water as the most effective initial burn first aid. Apply the Burnaid dressing AFTER you've cooled the burn, before transporting the patient for assessment.
What kind of burns is the 10x10cm pad suitable for?+
The 10x10cm pad is sized for small first-degree (superficial) and second-degree (partial-thickness) burns — e.g. kitchen scalds, BBQ contact burns, or splatter injuries. For larger burns, hand burns, or face burns, use the Burnaid Hand Dressing or Face Burn Pad, and seek medical help immediately.
Do I take Burnaid off when I get to a hospital?+
Leave the dressing in place until clinical staff assess the burn — they'll remove it gently as part of their wound review. Burnaid's non-adherent pad is designed to lift off cleanly without re-injuring the burn.
Burnaid Pad vs Burnaid Gel sachet — which do I want?+
The PAD is a foam dressing pre-impregnated with gel — ideal for a contained burn site you can cover and bandage. Gel sachets are useful for irregular surfaces, fingers and small splatter burns where a flat pad doesn't conform. Most workplaces keep both. The pad is the higher-volume item in stocked first aid kits.
Is Burnaid safe for children?+
Burnaid is suitable for use on minor burns in children after the 20-minute cool running water step. For any burn on a child larger than a 20-cent coin, on the face, hands, feet or that blisters, seek medical attention immediately — children's skin is thinner and burns more deeply at lower temperatures than adult skin.

Burnaid is intended for first aid use on minor burns. For serious burns call 000. Sources: healthdirect — Burns and scalds; Australian and New Zealand Burn Association (ANZBA).
