The Bbto 400-count assortment is an economy-tier solution for high-turnover environments like classrooms or large households. These bandages utilize a perforated polyethylene (PE) backing, which offers basic fluid resistance. While the packaging describes them as "flexible," this refers to the mechanical hinging of the perforated plastic rather than the true textile stretch found in fabric bandages. This makes them well-suited for flat surfaces of the body.
Synthetic rubber adhesive (SRA) provides a high initial "tack" or grab, ensuring the bandage stays in place immediately upon application. However, because the PE material has limited breathability compared to woven fabrics, it is recommended to change these bandages every 12 hours to prevent the skin from becoming overly moist. Specifications indicate that the adhesive may leave a residual ring if exposed to heat, such as during a hot shower.
- Large 400-count volume minimizes how often you need to restock your first-aid kit.
- The individual paper-backed wrapping maintains a Grade A seal for cleanliness.
- Includes five or more distinct geometric profiles for various injury locations.
Because the PE backing has low "material memory," these bandages have a higher failure rate when applied to joints like knees or elbows. The adhesive is also sensitive to lateral water ingress, meaning they are not considered waterproof. For the easiest removal, a quick wipe around the edges with alcohol can help the adhesive release without pulling at the skin.
If you require a bandage with higher breathability for skin that is easily irritated, the AndicAge 200-count pack features a more perforated film design.
