What is fabric first aid tape used for?

Fabric first aid tape is used to secure dressings and bandages, strap and support joints, and hold wound coverings in place. Its woven backing is strong yet breathable and tears easily by hand for quick application.

Is fabric tape better than microporous or plastic tape?

Fabric tape offers a stronger, more flexible hold than microporous (paper) tape, making it better for strapping and areas that move. Microporous tape is gentler on delicate or sensitive skin. The best choice depends on the application.

Can fabric tape be used for sports strapping?

Yes. Flexible fabric tapes such as Relitape are well suited to supporting joints and muscles during sport, alongside dedicated kinesiology and elastic adhesive tapes.

Do you offer bulk discounts on first aid tape?

Yes. Jax First Aid offers bulk discounts, purchase orders and instant credit for businesses, schools, sports clubs, training providers and other organisations.
