Micropore tape is an economical, general-purpose surgical tape that is designed to be used repeatedly and is great for use on sensitive/fragile skin and elderly patients. It is breathable which means your limbs will not feel heavy or restricted. This product comes in a dispenser pack for easy tear and convenience.

Is Micropore tape waterproof?

Micropore tape is not waterproof they come into direct contact with the skin often leading to skin suffocation hence should not be used in water activities. These work well for delicate skin as they will avoid getting the maceration on the wound area and thereby the evaporation of moisture.

What are the characteristics of Micropore tape?

Micropore tape has several readily recognisable attributes that make it well suited to use in medicine and in daily life. They come with a mild, non-irritating sticky backing thus very appropriate for use especially for the elderly or children. The sited dressings and tubings together with other medical devices can easily be secured thus making it versatile for use.

Now let’s look at how the Micropore tape is beneficial to sensitive skin.

Most importantly, micropore tape is very smooth for people who may have delicate skin. This reduces skin worries such as skin rash, which is normally likely to happen among patients who are very delicate because of age or poor health. In addition, it is designed to permit fresh air to penetrate the inside so that skin remains dry and no sweating is trapped causing rashes or maceration to occur.
