Why Choose Tegaderm Latex‑Free Film?
Tegaderm is a transparent, sterile dressing that provides a breathable waterproof barrier. Ideal for securing insulin pump infusion sites or CGM patches, it keeps devices firmly in place while allowing the skin to breathe.
Features & Benefits
- Hypoallergenic, latex-free adhesive that’s gentle on sensitive skin
- Waterproof film allows showering or swimming without compromising adhesion
- Semi-permeable to moisture vapour and gases, reducing skin maceration
- Thin, flexible film conforms to body contours for comfortable day-to-day wear
- Promotes longer device wear by preventing lifting and moisture intrusion
How to Apply & Use
- Clean and dry skin around the infusion set or sensor site
- Peel and apply Tegaderm smoothly over the device, ensuring full edge contact
- Press down firmly and inspect the edges to ensure a secure seal
- Replace as needed—typically every 3–7 days or when adhesive lifts
Compatibility
Suitable for use over insulin pump infusion sites, CGM sensors, catheter ports, and minor wounds, providing secure yet gentle adhesion.
Care & Maintenance
Gently clean with mild soap and water. Gently peel off from the edges when replacing. Safe away from heat sources and harsh chemicals.
