Frequently Asked Questions
When should I use retention tape instead of standard microporous?
Use retention tape for large dressings on curved body areas - shoulders, knees, elbows, torso - where standard narrow tape cannot hold the dressing securely across the entire surface. Retention tape provides wide, conformable coverage that maintains contact on moving joints and curved anatomy.
Can retention tape be used on limbs?
Yes. Retention tape conforms well to limb anatomy and maintains position during movement. Cut the tape to the required length, position it over the dressing, and smooth from the centre outwards to eliminate air bubbles and wrinkles. The breathable construction allows extended wear without moisture build-up.
