Standard First Aid Dressings
The reliable go-to bandage for NHS trusts and emergency services throughout the UK
What is a conforming bandage? The time tested conforming bandages offer light compression and excellent adaptability and flexibility. Steroply conforming bandages are used throughout NHS hospitals for dressing retention and supporting injured joints. It’s also a regular item for our veterinary and animal care customers. The lightweight bandage molds to the body’s contours, keeping out of the way of everyday activities and providing consistent protection to healing injuries.
Conforming bandages have excellent stretch capacity, helping its application to even the most difficult of areas like knee joints, between fingers and toes, and around wrists. Use the stretchy conforming bandage to wrap injuries quickly and easily.
Made from a nylon and viscose weave, the Steroply conforming bandage is breathable and allows full circulation of air across the body where it’s used. This aids in keeping the bandaged area clean and dry speeds up recovery, and reduces the chance of inflammation. The fray-resistant bandage will stay in great condition on the body for a long time and won’t snag or begin to unravel at the edges.

Where can Steroply Standard First Aid Dressings be used?
There’s a wide range of uses for conforming bandages, meaning it’s often found in hospitals, GP surgeries, veterinary clinics, care facilities, sports facilities, and virtually anywhere you can find a first aid kit.
Thanks to their self-adhering properties, conforming bandages are easy to apply and not painful to remove, making dressing injuries much easier and less stressful for the patient. Their elastic properties mean they stay snug and close to the body and won’t sag or droop away with repeated movement.
Because of this bandage conforming behaviour, it is excellent for use on joints with greater mobility and where dressing tape is likely to come loose.
Conforming bandage is used throughout the veterinary and animal care industry to dress animals’ injuries or wounds thanks to its ability to stay close to the body and offer full protection despite an animal’s range of movement. Our conforming bandage veterinary clients regularly order this bandage for use on animal patients like cats, dogs, and cattle. It is also used to protect and prepare animals for shipping—particularly horses with delicate legs at risk of knocks during transportation. Conforming bandage is even used on horses during exercise to protect legs and leg joints.
