AEROFORM Heavyweight Conforming Bandage 15cm x 4M Wrap/12

The AEROFORM Heavyweight Conforming Bandage 15cm in 15cm x 4M is a retention bandage that moulds to body contours to hold a dressing in place, supplied in a wrap of 12. The heavyweight construction has noticeably more body than the standard bandage, so it holds a bulkier dressing more securely and unwinds less readily. Note that heavier fabric is not a compression rating. The 15cm width suits thighs and torso.

Why choose the Heavyweight Conforming Bandage 15cm?

A conforming bandage earns its place by fitting where a flat bandage will not — around a heel, an elbow, a shoulder. That is what "conforming" means: it describes fit and handling, not a measured therapeutic pressure. The Heavyweight Conforming Bandage 15cm is a retention bandage, and treating it as a compression product is the common and consequential mistake.

The heavyweight construction has noticeably more body than the standard bandage, so it holds a bulkier dressing more securely and unwinds less readily. Note that heavier fabric is not a compression rating. Match the width to the body part rather than stocking one size: at 15cm this suits thighs and torso.

The safety point applies to every width. A bandage applied too tightly restricts circulation, and the warning signs show beyond the wrap — numbness, tingling, coldness, colour change or increasing pain. Loosen and re-apply if any appear.
