Description

Care for minor wounds with a more conscious alternative. 

Minor cuts and scrapes are part of everyday life, but that doesn't mean we can't choose better products to care for them.

These biodegradable plasters are made from a combination of 50% bamboo fiber and 50% wood pulp, offering an alternative to conventional plasters for protecting minor wounds while reducing the impact associated with the materials used.

Their flexible design and 72 × 19 mm dimensions make them practical to keep handy at home, in your bag, in your backpack, or in your travel first-aid kit.

In addition, they are latex-free and hypoallergenic, so they are designed to be suitable for people with sensitive skin as well, although tolerance may vary from person to person.

The packaging is recyclable, and the product is vegan and cruelty-free. And there is one more reason to choose them: each purchase contributes to a foundation that promotes hygiene and health in communities that need it most, according to the manufacturer's information.

A small plaster for your minor accidents, with a more conscious choice of materials.

Instructions for use
  1. Clean the wound with water and, if necessary, a suitable wound cleanser.
  2. Carefully dry the skin around the area.
  3. Remove the adhesive backing from the plaster, taking care not to touch the adhesive side.
  4. Place the plaster over the wound, making sure the pad covers the affected area and that the adhesive sticks to clean, dry skin.
  5. Change the plaster when it becomes damp, dirty, or comes loose, and check the wound regularly.

Caution: intended for minor cuts and superficial grazes. If the wound is deep, extensive, shows signs of infection, or will not stop bleeding, seek medical attention.

Care for the environment

Protecting your skin and considering the materials also matters.

  • Plant-based fibers: combine bamboo and wood pulp to make the main part of the adhesive bandage.
  • Biodegradable materials: the manufacturer presents them as biodegradable. The biodegradability of the complete product depends on its various components and the treatment conditions.

  • More conscious choice: allow you to opt for plant-based materials in an everyday first-aid product.

Important: although the bandage is described as biodegradable and contains plant fibers, it should not be considered completely free of plastic, as it incorporates acrylic adhesive. It should also not be disposed of in home compost or the organic waste container unless expressly authorized by the manufacturer.
