Description

The PRIMAGAUZE Elastic Cohesive Bandage by Smith & Nephew is an essential tool for effective wound care and support in various medical situations. Designed with versatility in mind, this latex-free bandage offers a self-adhesive property, allowing it to adhere to itself without the need for additional adhesives, pins, or clips. This feature ensures a secure, non-slip hold, even on limbs or joints with varying contours.

Key Features

• Elasticity and Conformability: Easily adapts to body contours, including joints and irregular surfaces, providing reliable support.
• Breathability: Vapour and air permeable, allowing air circulation to reduce moisture buildup and skin irritation.
• Comfortable Wear: Can be worn for extended periods without discomfort.

Material Composition

Crafted from white woven cotton, viscose, and polyamide, the bandage is coated with a latex-free synthetic polymer. This composition ensures durability, allowing the bandage to withstand daily wear, moisture, and friction.
