Composition and technical characteristics

Hartmann's Omnipor Paper Adhesive Tape (5cm x 9,2m) is made of non-woven material, ensuring maximum adaptability and softness, making it especially suitable for sensitive skin in both animals and humans. Its synthetic rubber adhesive comes in strips, allowing for optimal adhesion without completely occluding the skin.

It is a hypoallergenic product, permeable to air and water vapor, which reduces the risk of skin maceration and allows for prolonged use without compromising skin integrity. It is highly resistant to pulling but is easily removed without leaving residue or causing irritation.

Clinical applications in veterinary medicine

Omnipor is especially useful in veterinary settings for the secure fixation of dressings, intravenous cannulas, urinary catheters, and other catheters in companion animals. Its structure allows for proper adhesion even in hard-to-reach areas or on animals with delicate skin, such as puppies, cats, geriatric animals, or those undergoing dermatological treatment.

The 5 cm wide and 9,2 meter long format provides an economical and versatile solution for veterinary clinics that require frequently used and secure fixing material.
