Tubifast™ Garments. Now wet and dry wrapping is easy
Tubifast Garments are available in a range of ready-to-wear vests, tights, leggings and socks in a range of sizes for up to age 14.
They’re ideal for wet and dry wrapping* in the treatment of eczema and are so much easier to use than loose bandages.
The smaller sizes even have cartoon characters on them, which makes the whole process so much more acceptable for children.
Tubifast Garments are really comfy to wear, thanks to 2-Way Stretch Technology™ and SoftSeam™ technology, and they can be worn under day or night-clothes.
Wet and dry wrapping with Tubifast Garments
Use the Tubifast Garments that suit the age and size of your child – but if you have any doubts, or if your child wears a nappy, pick the next size up.
When wet wrapping*, apply Epaderm® Ointment to the skin, followed by two layers of Tubifast Garments. The first layer of Tubifast Garments, next to the skin, should be damp and the second layer should be dry.
For best results, wet wrap in the bathroom where it’s warm and steamy.
Make sure you wring out the Tubifast Garments before applying them to the skin – and keep your child warm and covered after wet wrapping, as their temperature will drop.
Dry wrapping uses just a single layer of dry Tubifast Garments over Epaderm Ointment.
Wet and dry wrapping reduce the itch-scratch cycle and have been found to improve quality of life for children, helping them to sleep better and enjoy happier days.
Always follow the washing instructions and your Garments will last longer.
*Wet wrapping should only be done if a healthcare practitioner advises it.
