Medical bandages and plasters are fundamental wound care products used across all healthcare settings. Selecting the appropriate type significantly impacts wound healing, patient comfort, and treatment outcomes.

Types of Medical Bandages

Elastic Bandage: Provides compression and support for sprains, strains, and edema management. Stretchable fabric conforms to body contours while maintaining consistent pressure.

Cohesive Bandage: Self-adherent wrap that sticks to itself without adhesive. Ideal for securing dressings without tape, particularly on hairy or sensitive skin areas.

Compression Bandage: Multi-layer bandaging system for managing venous leg ulcers and lymphedema. Graduated compression improves venous return and reduces swelling.

Crepe Bandage: Lightweight cotton bandage providing mild support and dressing retention. Breathable and comfortable for extended wear.

Wound Plasters

Fabric Plasters: Strong, flexible wound covering for cuts and abrasions on joints and mobile areas. Breathable backing promotes healing.

Waterproof Plasters: Transparent film wound cover protecting against water and bacteria while allowing site inspection.

Sensitive Skin Plasters: Hypoallergenic adhesive formulated for delicate and reactive skin types.

Application Tips

  • Apply bandage from distal to proximal for proper venous return
  • Maintain even tension — avoid tourniquet effect
  • Check circulation after application (capillary refill, sensation)
  • Change plasters daily or when soiled
  • Monitor skin beneath compression bandages regularly

Linmed Medical provides a comprehensive range of bandages and plasters manufactured to CE and ISO 13485 standards. OEM and private labeling available.
