Elastoplast Fabric

Elastoplast Fabric elastic plasters are suitable for covering all types of smaller wounds.

  • The material stretches with the skin's movements. 
  • The non-stick wound pad protects and cushions the wound. 
  • The strong adhesion ensures that the plaster stays in place. 

The plasters are available as:

  • strips in different sizes which seal all around the wound.
  • dressing length which can be cut to the ideal size.

      How to use

      Cleansing the wound from dirt and bacteria is an essential first step to enable optimal healing. To prevent wound infections, spray the Elastoplast Wound Spray from a distance of approximately 10 cm onto the entire wound area. Repeat if necessary, then gently dry the wound and surrounding skin area.

      Important: A minor wound will soon stop bleeding. If it continues, apply more gauze pads, keep pressure on the wound and seek medical advice.

      Next, it’s important to protect the wound from external influences like dirt and bacteria to enable undisturbed healing. Cover your wound with the Elastoplast sterile wound dressing that best suits your needs. Observe your wound and change the plaster or dressing regularly unless you’ve been recommended to do otherwise by your doctor. You might find this wound dressing know-how article useful.

      Help your wound heal safely, quickly and with a lower risk of scarring. Apply Elastoplast Wound Healing Ointment regularly until your wound has healed completely. Carefully apply a thin film one to two times per day. Make sure the opening of the tube does not get in contact with your wound. Repeat regularly until the healing is completed. The Elastoplast Wound Healing Ointment can be used on open minor superficial wounds and at any stage of the healing process. If necessary, cover the wound with a plaster, dressing or compress.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      1. How often should I change my plaster?
      Usually, it is recommended to change standard first aid dressings daily due to hygienic reasons. Some advanced plasters such as the Antibacterial Plaster that provide moist wound healing conditions are recommended to be left in place for up to two days or more in order not to interrupt the healing process.
      2. Is it better to let small wounds dry in the fresh air instead of putting on a plaster?
      It is one of the biggest wound care myths that keeping minor cuts and grazes exposed to the air helps them to heal faster. Research shows that covered wounds heal more efficiently and have a reduced risk of infection. Elastoplast products provide protection until the wound is completely healed.
      3. When should I consult a doctor?

      We recommend contacting a medical professional if:

      • The wound is deep and causing major bleeding.
      • The wound shows signs of infection such as redness, warmth, pain or swelling.
      • There are embedded foreign objects in the wound.
      • The wound is caused by an animal or human bite.
      • The wound is in the area of the face.
      • There is a fear of tetanus infection.
      • You have any strange symptoms or are worried in any way.
      4. What if my wound gets infected and produces pus?
      You should contact a medical professional if you recognise signs of infection – not only pus, but also swelling, redness, heat, pain, itching or burning. In the case of infection, the wound will need special medical treatment.
      5. Which Elastoplast plasters are waterproof and water resistant?
      For injuries and wounds on hands and fingers we recommend our Aqua Protect 100% Waterproof Plasters.
