Therapeutic bandages and wraps are expected to deliver more than just support—they must combine comfort, durability, and breathability to meet the growing demands of modern healthcare. Achieving this balance requires materials that not only perform under stress but also simplify production processes. Elastomeric netting has emerged as a key innovation, enabling products that feel better, function better, and are easier to produce.
The needs and requirements of the healthcare market
In today’s therapeutic care market, bandages and wraps must do more than cover—they need to deliver comfort, durability, and breathability while supporting efficient production processes. With rising expectations for patient comfort and streamlined manufacturing, advanced materials have become essential to meet these evolving demands.
Due to many years of experience in this market we know the needs and requirements in the healthcare market:
- Flexibility and Stretch: To conform to body contours without restricting movement.
- Strength and Durability: To maintain integrity during extended wear.
- Breathability: To keep skin dry and prevent irritation.
- Heat and Moisture Management: For faster heat dissipation and improved water vapor transmission.
- Manufacturing Efficiency: Reducing complexity and downtime in production.
Our solution: elastomeric netting
Conwed’s Rebound™ elastomeric netting is engineered specifically for therapeutic bandages and wraps. It features:
- A stretch-engine in one direction for superior flexibility.
- A built-in adhesive layer, eliminating the need for costly adhesive systems.
- Customizable elasticity, tailored to meet specific application needs.
This unique design ensures two-dimensional integrity, excellent energy recovery, and consistent performance in composite structures.
Benefits for End Users
Elastomeric netting in therapeutic bandages and wraps delivers a superior wearing experience. Its exceptional breathability keeps skin dry and comfortable, while improved air permeability and water vapor transmission help protect sensitive skin surfaces. Faster heat dissipation prevents overheating, ensuring long-lasting comfort during extended use. Combined with flexibility and durability, these features allow bandages and wraps to maintain their shape and support without compromising comfort.
Benefits for Manufacturers
