Pet care and animal health are on the rise, and the markets for veterinary products are expanding. As a result, there is an increased demand for support and practical wound care products, such as cohesive support bandages. It plays the role of a safer, easier-to-use, and more effective animal treatment tool.
What Is a Cohesive Support Bandage?
Cohesive support bandages are also known as “ветеринарная обертка” in veterinary treatment. These are usually made from 90% non-woven and 10% spandex for flexibility and solid support. Besides veterinary use, nonwoven cohesive elastic bandages are also widely used in people’s daily lives.
Features and Benefits of Cohesive Bandages in Veterinary Care
Self-Adhesive & Fur-Friendly
В отличие от кинезиологические ленты или ленты из оксида цинка, cohesive support bandages do not stick to skin or fur but adhere to themselves. They are also easy to remove without sticky residue or pain, hair damage, or excessive irritation.
High Elasticity & Easy to Use
Vet bandages have special woven methods that provide high elasticity and flexible support. They are light, breathable, and easy to tear by hand.
Waterproof & Special Formulation
Veterinary bandages are waterproof, and some even have a bitter taste to discourage animals from chewing or biting the wrap.
Due to these features, cohesive support bandages have the ability to provide flexible support and a tight fit around diverse sections of animals’ bodies. Combined with medical dressings, they are helpful for rapid treatment and are able to protect wounds during recovery. All of these advantages make vet wraps a preferred choice for veterinary use.
