Specs & features.
This tape is engineered from a thin, microporous, non-woven backing material spread with a pressure-sensitive, medical-grade adhesive mass. The micropores run throughout the fabric to allow the animal's skin to breathe naturally, preventing sweat buildup underneath. Medigrip paper tape is traditionally white, latex-free, and formulated with a hypoallergenic adhesive base to minimize localized immune reactions on sensitive animal skin.

- Microporous and High Breathability: The non-woven fabric allows air to circulate freely and water vapor to escape effortlessly. This prevents skin maceration (tissue softening from trapped moisture) under prolonged bandage wraps.
- Hypoallergenic Acrylic Adhesive: Coated with a specialized pressure-sensitive adhesive that remains secure during wear but releases easily without dragging on short fur or tearing delicate epidermal layers.
- Bi-Directional Hand Tearability: Features structural perforation lines or an easily torn non-woven matrix that allows veterinary staff to cleanly rip the tape horizontally or vertically without needing scissors.
