Product Description
3M Nexcare Micropore Paper Tape 25mm × 5m is the original and most trusted medical paper tape worldwide – the exact same product used in UAE hospitals, clinics, and by nurses for decades. Made from soft, porous, non-woven viscose material that allows skin to breathe while providing secure yet gentle adhesion. Tears easily by hand (horizontally & vertically) – no scissors needed Leaves minimal residue when removed Holds well on damp skin (unlike plastic tapes) Ideal for repeated dressing changes (post-surgery, wounds, IV sites) Widely stocked in every UAE pharmacy (BinSina, Life, Aster, Boots) and considered the gold-standard “skin-friendly” tape. Manufactured by 3M; store at room temperature. Benefits • Extremely gentle – perfect for fragile, elderly, baby, or post-treatment skin • Breathable & porous – reduces risk of maceration (skin softening under tape) • Hypoallergenic & latex-free – safe for allergy-prone individuals • Sticks reliably even on slightly moist skin (great in UAE humidity) • Easy, clean tear every time – no fraying or wasted tape • 5-metre roll = long-lasting (50–100 applications depending on use) How to Use • Clean and dry skin before application • Tear or cut desired length (tears easily by hand) • Apply without stretching/tension to avoid irritation • Press lightly for secure hold • To remove: gently peel back while supporting surrounding skin (or soak with water/oil for painless removal) Common Uses in UAE Homes & Clinics Securing gauze, bandages, or dressings Holding IV cannulas, feeding tubes, or sensors Taping eyelids during/after eye surgery Baby nappy rash barrier (tape over zinc cream) Sensitive skin first-aid (cuts, burns, blisters) Beauty hack: face-lift taping or eyelid tape
