Uses
- Wound Closure:
- Primary closure of minor lacerations, surgical incisions, and cuts without the need for sutures or staples
- Post-Suture Support:
- Provides continued reinforcement and skin support after the early removal of sutures or staples to prevent wound reopening

Features
- High Tensile Strength:
- Constructed from thin, non-woven reinforced fibers arranged in a bilateral pattern to maintain wound closure even under movement
- Breathability:
- These strips are translucent, porous, and breathable, allowing moisture vapor transfer which helps promote a healthy healing environment
- Hypoallergenic Adhesive:
- Pre-coated with a gentle adhesive to minimize skin irritation and reduce trauma during both application and removal
- Sterile Packaging:
- Individually packaged in sterile pouches (6 strips per pack) to ensure clinical hygiene and reduce the risk of infection
- Latex-Free:
- Safe for use on patients with natural rubber latex sensitivities
Benefits
