How do these plasters degrade?
The bandage and gauze is made from 100% certified bamboo fibre which will break down and compost. The is also gauze is made from 100% organic bamboo fibre.
The adhesive on the plaster has been created with 100% biodegradable and hypoallergenic ‘pressure sensitive adhesive’ ingredients. These ingredients are from nature and are suitable for the most sensitive skin types, but also great on regular skin types too.
