Triangular Bandage, Calico Hemmed, Reusable Sling Bandage
A calico triangular bandage with a specially hemmed edge, used for slings and splinting and, unlike the non-woven version, able to be washed and reused.
The Triangular Bandage, Calico Hemmed is a multi functional bandage most commonly used to create an arm sling or to help hold a splint in place around an injured limb. Unlike the non-woven version of the triangular bandage, which is intended for single use only, this calico version can be washed and reused as appropriate, making it a more durable and cost effective option for settings where a bandage will be used repeatedly over time rather than disposed of after one application.
The fabric is specially hemmed along its edges, which stops the material fraying with repeated washing and handling and makes the bandage especially practical for use on first aid training courses, where the same set of bandages may be folded, tied and untied by many different learners across a series of sessions.
Triangular bandages of this kind remain one of the most versatile items in any first aid kit thanks to the range of ways they can be folded and applied. The calico hemmed version suits first aid training providers, schools, colleges and any organisation that wants a durable, reusable bandage for repeated practical use.
