For medical environments looking for both performance and sustainability, SMG's wash-soluble tape presents an eco-friendly and forward-thinking solution. The product is designed to dissolve entirely during normal patient washing cycles, like during showers and baths. This 100% wash-soluble adhesive medical dressing supports safe, hygienic, and effective wound fixation without sacrificing adhesive integrity during use.
When exposed to water or steam at specific temperatures, wash-soluble adhesives are specially made to degrade and completely dissolve. Because of this novel feature, wash-soluble surgical adhesive products are the perfect option for short-term fixation requirements in sterile environments, like securing gauze, instrument wraps, or packaging inside specially-made medical trays. Dissolvable surgical tape just disappears during the wash cycle, leaving no residue behind—unlike traditional adhesives that must be manually removed and produce solid waste.
