Support bandage
Tubigrip
High quality multi-purpose elasticated tubular bandage
Tubigrip provides a continuous uniform support
Tubigrip provides firm support for sprains, strains and swelling. The product provides consistent and even compression (5-30mmHg sub-bandage pressure under a double layer). Tubigrip provides more consistent pressure levels across a wide range of limb circumferences compared to latex free elasticated tubular bandages*.
Tubigrip is compliant to the British Pharmacopoeia.
Tubigrip is comformable for a wide range of application
Thanks to its high stretch, Tubigrip provides great conformability. With its choice of 2 colours for patient acceptability, Tubigrip is available in a full range of sizes (11 sizes) to suit most applications.
In addition, Tubigrip is available in a variety of lengths to minimise waste.
Tubigrip is easy to apply and reapply
Tubigrip is:
- Easy to use with no need for pins or tapes
- Reusable after washing
- Easy to cut for different body areas for example torso, arms and legs
