A dressing and a method of manufacturing a dressing. The dressing comprising an absorbent support fabric (2), and a polyester fiber sheet (1) attached to one surface of the absorbent support fabric to provide a wicking path such that exudates contacting an outer surface of the fiber sheet are wicked to the absorbent support fabric. The outer surface of the polyester fiber sheet is heat treated to hinder individual fibers from extending out of the surface and thereby produce a glazed effect. This glazed surface inhibits the dressing from sticking to a wound, and impedes exudate transported within the dressing from returning to the dressing surface.
