DermaPlastACTIVE Sporttape5.0 cm, white

DermaPlast ACTIVE Sporttape is an inelastic, strongly adhesive sports tape for classic stabilising taping. The tape bandage with a woven carrier and zinc oxide rubber adhesive fixes joints and ligaments precisely and holds securely over time. Because the tape barely gives, it deliberately restricts the range of motion. That is exactly what sets it apart from elastic kinesiology tape, which follows movement rather than guiding it.

The sports tape is used in physiotherapy, sports medicine and club sport, for instance to stabilise the ankle, wrist or fingers after sprains and ligament injuries, or preventively on heavily loaded joints. The adhesive also grips reliably on textile underwraps and compression bandages.

• Inelastic and exceptionally tensile-strong for stable fixation
• Zinc oxide rubber adhesive with strong hold
• Serrated edges let you tear it by hand, no scissors needed
• Tears cleanly lengthwise as well
• Adheres to skin, underwrap and compression bandages
• 7 m per roll, white
• Contains latex, not suitable for anyone with a latex allergy

A simple rule of thumb for width: narrow tape around 2 cm suits fingers and toes, medium widths work for wrists and elbows, and the 5 cm width covers large joints such as the ankle or knee. Apply anchor strips without tension, then run the stabilising strips with controlled pull while the joint is in its functional position.

Whether you are restocking the practice taping kit or topping up the gym bag, DermaPlast ACTIVE Sporttape is easy to order from saneq in Switzerland.

DermaPlast ACTIVE sports tape in 5 cm width is intended for larger joints such as the knee, shoulder or ankle, where a wide contact area is needed. The broad strip covers more surface per pass and speeds up applying extensive dressings. As a rigid tape, it stabilises firmly. Buying sports tape in 5 cm makes sense for broad support dressings on large joints.
