What is Zinc Oxide Adhesive Tape?
Zinc Oxide Surgical Adhesive Tape consists of fabric of plain weave in which the wrap and the weft threads consists of (a) cotton or (b) viscose or (c) combined cotton and viscose yarn. The fabric has been spread evenly with an adhesive mass containing Zinc Oxcide which does not offset when the tape is unrolled. The fabric is clean and reasonably free from weaving defects and contains not more than traces of leaf residue, seed coat and other impurities. It may be perforrated; if present the perforations are regularly distributed.
Why would I use Zinc Oxide Tape?
It conforms to the area to which it is applied making it far less bulky and I ighter weight than a brace, which is why it is so popular with sports people and physiotherapists. Tape also allows for different methods to be used to offer targeted support to specific ligaments or tendons within a joint. This means that the joint can have a certain range of movement allowing faster recovery from injury, and the ability to continue activity.
