Research has shown the patient’s skin flora is a potential source of surgical site infection. The film on incise drapes creates a barrier to reduce that risk. Our incise drape materials are a transparent yet non-glare, adhesive-coated polyurethane or polyethylene film that allows the skin to breathe, preventing moisture buildup under the film even in difficult or wet operating conditions.

The film adheres to the skin and isolates the surgical site from non-sterile areas that could increase the risk of an infection.

Looking for product suggestions? Our website provides an overview of some of our most widely used surgical tapes, organized by key performance requirements such as conformability, breathability, transparency, and tack.

In terms of manufacturing, our incise films feature heavy-duty liner options. Our films are breathable and highly conformable, easy to position and apply, as well as thin, strong, and tear resistant. 

Incise films are ETO and gamma sterilization compatible. PU, EMA, and PE thin films contain non-sensitizing acrylic adhesive, available as rolled goods. Our UV acrylics guarantee secure bonding to both PE and PET carriers, while enabling a high breathability.

Our bordering and fenestration solutions are offered in range of double-coated tapes. Bordering tapes are applied to one edge/border of a surgical drape. Fenestration tapes are used to create an adhesive area in the centre of a single-piece drape. They are available with and without a finger lift (uncoated area). This is a non-adhesive area on the edge of the tape, which allows easy removal of the liner.
