Valafit Tape is a sanitary product developed by the Hartmann brand as a comfortable, pleasant and useful option to serve as bibs for the elderly. It is a pack of 100 units, consisting of 10 packs each containing 10 bibs.
Valafit Tape is a very useful product to make it easier to eat food without it falling on your clothes. It works as a bib, but its size of 38 x 65 cm makes it ideal for adults, not babies or small children. It has a rectangular design and is orange in colour.
The collar of the bibs is designed using an adhesive tape or adhesive collar, which is simple to use and easy to attach to the person's neck. This system will fix the accessory correctly so that the person will not remove it by mistake when making simple or even sudden movements.
The outside of the bib is made of a waterproof plastic layer or sheet, made from polyethylene. This makes it easier for liquids to flow into the bottom pouch of the product, thus preventing stains or splashes.
On the other hand, the inner part is comfortable to the touch and is made of highly absorbent tissue, so it works perfectly as a napkin. Each bib is for single use only: it is not recommended to reuse them.
The bibs have a bottom bag that will serve to collect food and liquids that are spilled or fall into it, thus preventing dirt from spreading. It has a large capacity that allows you to keep food leftovers in a safe space, so that they do not stain clothes.
It is especially suitable for older adults or people who have a motor difficulty in their arms that makes it difficult to eat. It is also ideal for individuals who tend to stain their clothes when eating.
It should be placed around the patient's neck, adjusting it correctly with the adhesive strips to secure it and prevent it from coming loose easily. In addition, its inner layer of tissue can be used as a napkin to sanitise the hands or mouth during and after meals.
Not recommended to be washed for reuse; best to be discarded after use. Do not fit too tightly around the patient's neck, as this may cause discomfort. When removing the bib, the collection bag should be taken into account, as a wrong movement could spill the contents on the person.
