Unlike many other tapes who simply increase the amount of adhesive or package it differently, the creators of Vetkin worked cooperatively with veterinary institutes, olympic teams, ISELP, and the Equine and Canine Institutes to develop a tape specifically for veterinary applications. While it uses the same high quality cotton material base as CureTape, it undergoes a specialized drying process when combined with the adhesive to create a tape that has 35% stronger adhesion, but is easier to remove from the coat than traditional CureTape. It comes in two 1.2 inch (3cm) wide and 16.5 foot long roll which means you get 20% more tape per roll than a traditional 2 inch (5cm) wide roll for about 12 applications per roll.
Unique Characteristics:
- Excellent cost-to-quality ratio, high quality tape available at reasonable prices
- Tape is stronger than regular tapes while still being easy to remove from coat
- 2.4 inch (6 cm) width gives you 20% more tape than a standard size roll
- Partnered with International Society of Equine Locomotor Pathology (ISELP)
- Unique production method provides a very soft, strong, and thick cotton tape
- R&D, testing, production, and quality control all performed in-house for consistency
- Certified with German TÜV Mark of Quality for use with therapeutic applications
Composition:
- 100% cotton fabric is soft, breathable, and comfortable to wear
- Thicker, stronger mesh than CureTape or comparable tapes
Adhesive :
- Gentle but durable adhesive provides 5-day wear time
- Wave-patterned adhesive reduces risk of irritation and allows the skin to breathe
- Acryllic adhesive is heat-activated, hypoallergenic, and latex-free
Elasticity:
- 145% elasticity to match the stretch of skin, stronger snapback due to material strength
Size:
- 2.4" x 16.4' (5cm X 5m) for 10-12 applications, 20% more tape than standard rolls
Durability :
- Can be worn up to 5 days
