ROLL BANDAGE 15CM 1"S

About

A roll bandage, specifically 15cm in width, is a broad and robust medical dressing designed for extensive coverage and substantial support in various demanding clinical applications. Typically crafted from a durable yet breathable fabric such as heavy-duty cotton, elasticized material, or a blend, it is supplied in a generously rolled format for ease of use over larger areas. These wider bandages are particularly effective for securing large wound dressings, providing significant and firm compression for more severe sprains, strains, or contusions, and offering substantial support to major joints like knees, shoulders, or even for wrapping around the torso. Their increased width ensures superior coverage, stability, and immobilization for larger anatomical areas, making them indispensable in trauma care, post-operative recovery, and for managing more extensive injuries where strong, consistent support is paramount.
