What is a Medical Waterproof Tape?
A Medical Waterproof Tape is designed to adhere to the skin even in wet conditions, providing a waterproof barrier for wound dressings or securing medical devices. This multi-purpose medical tape is available in various sizes and shapes and is suitable for use on people with sensitive skin.
The waterproof tape is commonly used by swimmers, divers, and athletes, as well as patients with chronic wounds or ostomy bags who need to protect their skin from moisture and infection. Due to its water-resistant properties, it can stay on the skin for longer periods, reducing the frequency of dressing changes and minimizing the risk of skin irritation or damage.
Medical Waterproof Tapes, produced by AdvaCare Pharma, are manufactured in ISO and CE-certified facilities located in India, China, and the USA. These facilities conform to healthcare standards and undergo regular inspections to ensure consistent quality and safety.
