Directions for use

Ensure the skin is clean and dry before application.
Place the bandage over the area to be secured and wrap it gently but firmly.
Overlap each layer by about half its width to ensure secure coverage.
Press the end of the bandage onto itself to adhere. The cohesive design will hold it in place without the need for clips or pins.
Check the fit. Ensure the bandage is snug but not so tight that it restricts circulation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I apply the Primagauze bandage directly over a wound?

No, always place a sterile dressing or gauze over the wound first to avoid contamination.

Are cohesive bandages reusable?

No, cohesive bandages are designed for single use and should be discarded whenever they need to be replaced or if they become soiled.

What is the difference between cohesive and adhesive bandages?

Cohesive Bandages:
Cohesive bandages stick to themselves due to their unique material composition, often coated with a self-adhering polymer. They do not stick to skin, hair, or clothing, making them a gentle option for securing dressings or providing support without causing discomfort during application or removal.

Used for wrapping injuries, securing dressings, or providing light compression.
Ideal for use on areas with hair or sensitive skin, as they do not pull or irritate.
Common in sports, veterinary care, and light wound care due to their flexibility and pain-free removal.

Adhesive Bandages:
Adhesive bandages use a sticky layer coated with an adhesive (such as medical-grade glue) to adhere directly to the skin. This creates a firm bond with the skin, which can sometimes be uncomfortable for individuals with sensitive skin or when removed.

Typically used to cover small wounds or to directly adhere to the skin to hold dressings in place.
Common in first aid kits for minor cuts, scrapes, and injuries.
Not as suitable for hairy or sensitive areas due to the adhesive’s tendency to cause discomfort during removal.
