Opsite Flexifix - 5 cm x 10 m

Opsite Flexifix 5 cm x 10 m description

Opsite Flexifix is a roll of transparent film from the Smith and Nephew brand.

This is a water and bacteria-resistant film but with great water vapour permeability which allows the skin to breathe. The acrylic sealing strip reduces the risk of skin lesions upon withdrawal, especially after it has been worn for a long time.

Opsite Flexifix 5 cm x 10 m is easy to apply on irregular anatomical contours, as well as on compresses and tubes. Very adaptable to forms and elastic bands, it offers patients very high comfort.

This innovative presentation allows for quick distribution and economic use of the OPSITE film to properly secure dressings.
