3M Nexcare Tape Paper 5 m x 2.5 cm is made of tissue-based paper with acrylic adhesive. Ideal for fixing medical dressings and for healing minor wounds. It also adapts to the surface of all skin types.
It is a paper tape made of non-woven fabric and acrylic adhesive. It is very resistant and can be used to cover all types of minor wounds and superficial cuts. It allows to keep these wounds ventilated even if they are covered, thanks to its porosity. The tape is transparent and can be folded to fit in areas where it is difficult to apply tape. It is also suitable for fixing medical devices. It is breathable and because it is perforated it is easy to remove. It is a useful tape in first aid due to its versatility of use.
On the other hand, it fits perfectly to all skin types, even if it is wet. It is porous and breathable, allowing the skin to breathe and minimising skin discomfort. It is easy to tear for secure bandages and conforms to the body to facilitate proper positioning.
This product is suitable for extremely sensitive skin or skin that has suffered slight damage, as it is made with an adhesive that is hypoallergenic. Suitable for frequent applications and for fixing dressings, lightweight tubes and ostomy devices to intact skin. Suitable for both children and adults. Can be used by people allergic to latex. Anyone with a wound can use this product, but it is also suitable for professional use.
Start by positioning the end of the tape, then cut strips 8 to 10 centimetres long or as needed. Never attach the bandage directly from the roll, as this will hinder adhesion. Attach traces of the tape around the edges of the dressing or gauze. Fold the end of the tape over to make it easier to locate the next time it is needed.
Always keep this product in a cool, dry place. Keep away from direct sunlight or other sources of heat. If you experience any skin irritation from its use, discontinue use and pay a visit to your health care professional, it could be a skin problem. Allow the tape to conform to the contours of the body and skin for best fit. Materials are latex free. Highly resistant to water contact and allows perspiration.
