Medical Applications
Non-stick wound care products designed with comfort in mind.
Skin-friendly adhesive materials for wound dressings and skin-contact medical products — selected for adhesion, flexibility, moisture management, and reliable performance.
DermaMed supports wound care products that require skin-friendly adhesive materials, flexibility, moisture management, and reliable adhesive performance. Our coating, laminating, slitting, and converting capabilities help customers identify the right construction for their specific application.
Reliable wound care products support natural healing while minimizing infection risk. Backing layer options — films, foams, or woven and nonwoven fabrics — are selected for flexibility, breathability, and moisture permeability, then paired with adhesive chemistries that hold securely without irritating sensitive skin.
What the construction has to deliver.
Selecting an adhesive for this application means aligning chemistry, substrate, and performance with what the device actually does in use.
