Tubigrip Tubular Support Bandage Size B 1m – Elasticated Multi-Purpose Support

The Tubigrip Tubular Support Bandage Size B 1m (Product Code: 1520) is an industry-leading compression and support solution designed to treat sprains, strains, soft tissue injuries, general edema, post-burn scarring, and ribcage injuries. Sized specifically for small hands and arms, this 1-meter length bandage provides firm, consistent pressure across the application area, allowing patients to maintain complete freedom of movement while recovering.

Anatomical Contouring and Even Pressure Distribution

What sets the Tubigrip Tubular Support Bandage Size B 1m apart is its unique structural fabric design. Woven with covered elastic threads running through the material, the bandage naturally adjusts to the specific contours of the limb. By distributing compression evenly over the surface, it helps effectively manage swelling and fluid retention while staying securely in place—eliminating the need for restrictive medical tapes, pins, or clips.

Key Features & Benefits

• Effective Tissue Support: Delivers reliable, lasting compression to weak or injured joints and muscles, assisting with pain management and stabilization.

• Easy to Apply and Reapply: Slides easily onto the limb like a sleeve. It retains its elasticity and compression properties even after machine washing, making it a highly cost-effective option.

• Customizable Length: The flexible 1-meter roll can be easily cut with medical shears to fit different treatment zones or tailored to exact anatomy.

• No Pins or Tape Required: The seamless, self-retaining structure stays firmly positioned during physical movement or sleep, reducing skin chafing.

• Premium Fabric Blend: Expertly woven from a high-quality blend of Viscose, Elastane, and Polyamide for breathability, softness, and patient comfort.

Application Guidelines

Achieving the correct therapeutic compression with the Tubigrip Tubular Support Bandage Size B 1m is a simple three-step process:

1. Measure & Cut: Measure the bandage against the affected limb and cut it to twice the length required, adding an extra 2–3 cm to account for overlap.

2. Apply First Layer: Pull the Tubigrip sleeve over the hand or arm like a stocking.

3. Double Back: Fold the top half of the bandage back over the limb. Ensure that the upper edge of this second layer sits 2–3 cm higher up the limb than the first layer to prevent a localized tourniquet effect.

Clinical Advantage: Double-layering Tubigrip provides a uniform 10–15 mmHg of light compression, which is ideal for sub-acute edema control and joint stabilization. Always ensure the bandage is not applied too tightly, and check for proper circulation regularly.
