A full box of high quality Steroplast wound closure strips. Wound closures (also known as skin closures, non-stitch sutures or butterfly stitches) are used to close deeper cuts than could be adequately treated with a sticking plaster. Wound closures are narrow strips of non-woven material backed with adhesive, which are placed across a wound to hold it closed and protect it from foreign bodies. Wound closures are very useful in a sports first aid kit, for instance to close the kind of cuts that can open on the face during boxing and sparring.
- A simple and effective method of closing deep cuts
- Strong material and adhesive to reliably hold wounds closed and prevent re-opening
- Improved healing time and reduced scarring
- Low allergy to reduce skin irritation
- Economical pack size to suit more frequent users
Steroplast wound closure strips are available in two sizes:
- 3mm x 7.5mm: box contains 10 pouches of 5 closure strips (50)
- 6mm x 7.5mm: box contains 10 pouches of 3 closure strips (30)
Each pouch of wound closures is individually sterile wrapped. For smaller quantities of wound closure strips please see our Wound Closures First Aid Pack.
