Description
The BV Non-woven Adhesive Paper Tape, also known as 4por, is an adhesive with non-woven porous support. It has high permeability to the air and the adhesive mass is hypoallergenic, allowing the highest cutaneous tolerance. The tape is white in colour.
Size: 2.5cm x 10m.
Uses
Generally, Adhesive Paper Tape with porous support can be used to secure bandages and dressings to skin without leaving a sticky residue. Microporous tape normally has tiny holes, or micropores, that make it breathable (speeding up healing) and easy to tear (ideal for emergencies).
Application
• Wash your skin with a mild soap and pat it dry, ensuring that the area where you’ll be applying the tape is clean
• Cut a length of tape that covers your bandage completely, if applicable
• Stick the tape to your skin evenly without pulling it – it is important to avoid pulling or stretching out the tape as you place it on your skin, otherwise it’ll cause tension.
• Press the tape down firmly and gently rub it into your skin using circular motions so it adheres to the skin
• Avoid wrapping the tape entirely around a limb as it may cause circulation problems
• Loosen the tape if the area it’s covering starts to swell
• Ask a professional how long you should leave the tape in place
Removing the BV Non-woven Adhesive Paper Tape:
• Start at an edge of the tape and loosen it slightly
• Lift the tape slowly in the direction that your hair is growing – taking the tape off in the same direction of your hair growth will help ensure it doesn’t pull or cause pain
• Avoid ripping the tape off quickly so you don’t irritate your skin.
• Keep the tape low as you remove it to reduce irritation. keep the tape close to your skin as you pull it off and use your fingers to steady your skin if needed – this will help to reduce irritation
• If you are having trouble getting the tape off or it’s painful to remove, an adhesive remover may help – dab this onto the area to help the tape come loose
