3M Micropore Medical Tape 25mm — Box of 12
The 3M Micropore Medical Tape 25mm (1530-1) is a dependable, multi-purpose paper tape engineered for applications where skin integrity is a primary concern. As a staple in clinical settings, this tape provides a reliable level of adhesion while remaining exceptionally gentle during removal. This makes it the ideal choice for elderly patients, pediatric care, or any individual requiring frequent dressing changes on sensitive or fragile skin.
Developed by 3M, Micropore tape is highly breathable, allowing moisture to escape without reducing the tape's effectiveness. This breathability helps maintain skin health and prevents maceration under the adhesive. The tape is hypoallergenic and 100% latex-free, significantly reducing the risk of allergic reactions or skin irritation. Its versatile design allows it to adhere well even to damp skin, ensuring secure placement in various clinical conditions. This bulk pack contains 12 economical rolls, each measuring 25mm wide by 9.1m long, providing a cost-effective solution for busy medical practices, first aid rooms, and home care environments.
