Fast Setting: The bandage has a fast setting time, typically around 5 to 8 minutes. This is a crucial feature for medical professionals who need to quickly and efficiently immobilize fractures and other injuries.
Plaster of Paris: The bandage is made of gauze uniformly coated with a high-quality Plaster of Paris formula. This material is well-known for its strength and ability to create a rigid cast.
Minimal Plaster Loss: The unique formula and manufacturing process ensure that the plaster is well-adhered to the gauze, resulting in minimal plaster loss during application. This contributes to a stronger and smoother finished cast.
Smooth Finish: The extra creamy plaster formula results in an excellent, smooth cast finish, which is more comfortable for the patient and aesthetically pleasing.
