What is a conforming bandage? A time-tested classic, conforming bandages offer light compression and excellent flexibility and adaptability. Steroply conforming bandage is used throughout NHS hospitals for dressing retention and supporting injured joints. It's also a regular item our veterinary and animal care customers order. The lightweight bandage moulds to the body's contours, keeping out of the way of everyday activities and providing consistent protection to healing injuries.
Conforming bandage also has excellent stretch capacity, helping its application to even the most difficult of areas like knee joints, between fingers and toes, and around wrists. Use the stretchy conforming bandage to wrap injuries quickly and easily.

This aids in keeping the bandaged area clean and dry speeds up recovery, and reduces the chance of inflammation. The fray-resistant bandage will stay in great condition on the body for a long time and won't snag or begin to unravel at the edges.

Thanks to their self-adhering properties, conforming bandages are easy to apply and not painful to remove, making dressing injuries much easier and less stressful for the patient. Their elastic properties mean they stay snug and close to the body and won't sag or droop away with repeated movement. Because of this bandage conforming behaviour, it is excellent for use on joints with greater mobility and where dressing tape is likely to come loose.
Conforming bandage is used throughout the veterinary and animal care industry to dress animals' injuries or wounds thanks to its ability to stay close to the body and offer full protection despite an animal's range of movement.
