The Acofar elastic bandage is made of cotton fabric, highly elastic threads and guides on the sides that facilitate its application. This material is hypoallergenic, breathable, does not usually cause skin irritation, is resistant to sterilisation, sweat, grease and treatment creams.
The bandage does not lose its flexibility or functionality with washing or prolonged use, thanks to the quality of its materials. It has been specially designed to hold compresses, splints and dressings that protect a wound, to keep them in place and to protect the affected areas by exerting a light compression.
It is also useful for convenient and uniform immobilisation of joint injuries, trauma and sprains. It can be used to cover large traumas and adapts to the user's mobility without slipping or losing its position and without interrupting blood circulation.
Acofar elastic bandage can act as a hygienic wrap for wounds that have been immobilised, helping to stimulate the healing process. The correct application of this bandage helps to reduce pain, inflammation and protect wounds from infection.
This compressive and elastic tape also helps to reduce oedema or swelling caused when an area of the body is immobilised or when there are varicose lesions in the lower limbs. It also helps to limit movement of the injured area or limb to promote faster recovery.
The light compression exerted by this bandage stimulates circulation and allows blood to flow throughout the body. This type of bandage is indispensable in the home or office medicine cabinet, as it is a safe, tested article with multiple applications in the home and office.
