Smith & Nephew Tensoplast (Elastoplast) Elastic Adhesive Bandage 5 cm x 2.5 meters, Each. Tensoplast is an elastic adhesive bandage that provides strong compression and long-lasting support. Manufactured completely from cotton, the bandage is ideal for treatment of all conditions that require limitation of movement. The zinc oxide adhesive helps the bandage remain in place for extended periods, while the water-repellent material protects the bandage from soaking and soiling. Tensoplast is also permeable to air, helping prevent skin maceration.
