Bantex gauze is used by doctors and vets as protection for cuts, burns, sprains, and other injuries. Many trainers also use Bantex for ankle and wrist supports. Bantex is effective and easy to use for anyone, and is safer than stretchy elastic gauze.

Bantex may be sterilized and is often used as an emergency bandage; it is non-toxic and will not cause dermatitis or leave a sticky residue. Unlike adhesive tape, it "sticks" to itself, not skin, hair, or clothing. Removal is painless and healing tissues are unharmed.
Because it uses no sticky adhesives, Bantex allows patients to bathe, swim, or work in water without loosening the wrapping.
