Description
The cotton crepe bandage is one of the most versatile items in a first aid kit — and one of the most frequently used. Light compression for sprains and soft tissue injuries. Securing a low-adherent pad or combine dressing in place without tape. Supporting a swollen joint during the journey to hospital. Providing firm, even pressure over a wound dressing. One roll does all of it, and a kit without one is not fully equipped.
This 7.5cm x 1.5m Medium Cotton Crepe Bandage is the standard size for most adult limb applications — wide enough for knee, ankle, wrist, and forearm wrapping, long enough to complete the application with adequate overlap. Cotton crepe construction provides comfortable, breathable compression that conforms to body contours without cutting off circulation when applied correctly.
- 7.5cm x 1.5m — standard size for adult limb applications The 7.5cm width suits ankle, knee, wrist, and forearm wrapping for most adult patients. At 1.5m unstretched the roll provides adequate length to complete a standard compression wrap with overlap and secure the end — not a compromised short roll that runs out before the application is finished. The most commonly used size in workplace and sports first aid.
- Cotton crepe — breathable, comfortable, conforms to body contours Cotton crepe stretches evenly and conforms to the contours of the limb being wrapped, providing consistent compression without pressure points. Breathable cotton construction allows airflow through the bandage during extended wear — more comfortable for the patient than synthetic alternatives. The crepe weave provides the stretch that allows even application without special technique.
- Secures dressings and provides light compression for soft tissue injuries Used to secure low-adherent pads, combine dressings, and wound dressings in place without adhesive tape — practical on limbs where tape does not adhere well over hair or contoured surfaces. Also used for light compression wrapping of sprains, strains, and soft tissue injuries to reduce swelling and provide support before or during transport for assessment.
- Reusable, washable, WHS required Washable and reusable after cleaning — replace if the bandage loses elasticity, becomes contaminated in a way that cannot be adequately cleaned, or is cut during use. Cotton crepe bandages are a required inclusion in WHS-compliant workplace first aid kits under the SafeWork Australia Code of Practice. Ships from Dubbo, NSW within 2 business days.
