Hypafix is an adhesive, sheet-free nonwoven fabric for secure attachment. It is made of white polyester material and coated with hypoallergenic adhesive. Hypafix also provides complete coverage of the entire bandage, reducing the risk of contamination. Its excellent conformability simplifies the configuration of around the joints and the contours of the body to allow greater freedom of movement for the patient. The tape is permeable to air and moisture, helping to reduce the risk of maceration. Hypafix is also radiolucent, so it does not have to be removed for either radiotherapy or X-ray examinations.
