    Hello All,

    Does somebody use Chirofix, hypo-allergenic non-woven straping tape. I remember we used @ Uni in UK for 10 years ago....but have not used this and always have been used Hypafix or Fixomull.

    Are all similar???

    Thanks

    along with Mefix pretty much the same, though fixomull is a little less stretchy

    Mefix used to be my choice but i now prefer EPB (Hapla Band) as its more sticky and keeps things in place better like pmps and wound dressings..................its a personal choice though.

    chirofix and mefix always wrinkled and got dirty looking straight away.
    i always used epb, its nice and stretchy, doesnt wrinkle and really fixes dressings in place well

    try it, its awful cheap too!

    it stands i think for elastic plaster bandage.
    and it is a brown coloured tape on a roll, about 2 inches or so wide.
    i used to buy it from footman.
