Equiwrap® Cohesive Bandages from Robinson Animal Healthcare are a must have item for any equine first aid kit. Available in a wide range of colours from bright fluorescent Green, Orange and Pink, to more conservative colours such as Bottle Green and Black, Equiwrap® Cohesive Bandages are a powerful, flexible bandage that sticks to itself but not to skin or hair.
Easy to tear by hand, Equiwrap® is made from elasticated crepe and comes in 10 cm x 4.5 m single rolls and is ideal for bandaging awkward contours of the legs such as the knee and hock.
Equiwrap® is perfect for securing bandages in place and providing support, once positioned Equiwrap® will stay firmly in place and not loosen. The bandage should be changed daily, and applied over a dressing or Veterinary Gamgee®, making sure there are no wrinkles
Always apply a bandage with even pressure and a 50% overlap, taking care not to over-stretch the bandage. Apply the bandage from the top and from left to right on the near side and right to left on the off side and always start over bone not tendon.
