Description
The Elastolite Bandage Crepe Cotton in white offers a versatile and reliable solution for various medical and therapeutic needs.

Key Features
-
Non-Adhesive Design: The bandage does not stick to the skin, making it suitable for individuals with fragile skin or adhesive sensitivities. Its non-fraying selvedged edges enhance durability, while the washable and reusable nature adds to cost-effectiveness.
-
Application Ease: Some versions feature a central yellow line to aid in proper application, and printed ellipses that change shape to indicate correct tension. This ensures even pressure distribution and easy application, especially on awkward body contours and joints.
-
Low Profile: The bandage's low profile allows it to be worn comfortably with footwear, and it is designed not to shrink sideways, preventing limb constriction.
Available Sizes
The bandage is available in various widths:
- 5 cm
- 7.5 cm
- 10 cm
- 15 cm
Each with an unstretched length of 1.5 meters, extending up to 4 meters when stretched. Packaging options include single rolls and packs of 12, with both sterile and non-sterile versions available.
Intended Use
Suitable for both clinical and home care settings, the Elastolite bandage can be used for:
- Retaining dressings and medical devices
- Wound care
- Post-surgical support
- Muscle and tendon injuries
It is also applicable in beauty treatments for compressing swollen tissue. However, it is not recommended for overnight use to avoid affecting blood circulation.
Maintenance
For optimal use, the bandage should be secured with microporous tape, as no clip is included. It can be left in place for up to seven days in some versions, minimizing skin irritation through its breathable design.
The Elastolite Bandage Crepe Cotton White stands out as a durable and comfortable option, tailored to meet diverse medical needs with precision and care.
