Aerotape White Microporous Paper Tape 1.25cm x 5m Box/24

Aerotape White Microporous Paper Tape 1.25cm x 5m Box/24 is a gentle, breathable medical adhesive tape designed for secure yet low-trauma fixation across frequent clinical and first aid applications. Manufactured from soft microporous paper, the tape allows air and moisture vapour to pass through, helping maintain skin integrity and reduce the risk of irritation during extended or repeated use. The narrow 1.25cm width makes it particularly suitable for smaller dressings, paediatric use, facial applications, and areas requiring precise placement.

Supplied as a box of 24 rolls, this bulk format is ideal for medical practices, hospitals, aged care facilities, and high-use first aid environments. The tape adheres reliably to clean, dry skin while remaining easy to remove with minimal discomfort.
