All sterile options are designed with high-quality packaging and carry the Q.V.P. (Quality Verified Product) status, assuring package integrity.

Key configurations for sterile variants include:

  • Standard sizes: 1/8” x 3”, 1/4” x 4”, 1/2” x 4”, and 1” x 4”.
  • Specialty sizes: Medium Butterfly strips.

These high-tensile strength strips are ideal for providing incision support as an alternative or adjunct to traditional sutures and staples, while remaining porous and breathable for optimal healing.

Are these wound strips available in many sizes?

Yes, the Dukal Wound Closure Strips are offered in a wide variety of configurations to meet different clinical needs. They provide high tensile strength and support for incision closure, serving as an excellent alternative or supplement to sutures and staples.

Available options include variations in:

  • Standard Sizes: Dimensions range from smaller options like 1/8” x 3” and 1/4” x 1½” up to larger strips such as 1/2” x 4” and 1” x 4”.
  • Specialized Types: A Medium Butterfly configuration is also available.
  • Sterility: Both Sterile and Non-Sterile versions are offered.
  • Packaging: Packaging varies widely, from small packages (2 to 10 strips per pack/card) to bulk quantities (e.g., 50 packages per box).
Are these strips ideal for post-surgical incision support?

Yes, Dukal Wound Closure Strips are ideal for post-surgical care or managing other traumatic incisions, as they are specifically designed for robust incision support. They function as an excellent alternative or supplement to traditional closure methods like sutures or staples.

The design promotes effective healing and secure closure:

  • High Tensile Strength: Constructed from thin, non-woven reinforced fibers arranged in a bilateral pattern to provide robust and reliable support to the incision site, maintaining closure integrity.
  • Optimal Healing Environment: The strips are translucent, porous, and highly breathable, which helps facilitate a healthy healing process.
  • Sterile Options Available: Many configurations are available in a sterile format (Q.V.P. quality), ensuring suitability for various clinical applications.
Are these strips a good alternative to sutures?

Yes, Dukal Wound Closure Strips are designed as an excellent alternative or supplement to sutures or staples, providing robust support for incisions and maintaining wound closure.

Are these strips compatible with other popular brands?

Yes, the Dukal Corporation Wound Closure Strips are designed to be directly comparable to Steri-Strips. They feature similar medical-grade adhesive and non-woven reinforced fiber construction, making them a reliable alternative for clinical or personal use.

Can these be used alongside surgical sutures?

Absolutely. These strips are highly versatile and are specifically designed to be used in two ways:

  • Primary Closure: As a standalone non-invasive method for minor wounds.
  • Reinforcement: Used as a supplement to traditional sutures or staples to help maintain secure wound edges during the recovery process.
Do these strips offer high tensile strength?

Yes, these Dukal Wound Closure Strips are specifically engineered for high tensile strength to maintain reliable incision support and closure integrity.

This robust support is achieved through specialized construction:

  • They are made from thin, non-woven reinforced fibers.
  • The fibers are configured in a bilateral pattern to maximize tensile strength across the incision.

This strength allows them to function effectively as an alternative or supplement to traditional sutures and staples. Furthermore, the strips are designed to be translucent, porous, and breathable, contributing positively to the overall healing environment.

How do these strips promote healing?

The Dukal Wound Closure Strips are engineered with key material properties to create an optimal healing environment while ensuring strong, reliable support:

  • Promotes Natural Healing: The material is translucent, porous, and breathable. This design allows for excellent air exchange, preventing moisture buildup (maceration) and supporting the natural recovery process. The translucent nature also allows medical professionals to monitor the incision site without having to remove the strips.

  • Provides Robust Support: They are constructed from thin, non-woven reinforced fibers arranged in a bilateral pattern. This robust design provides superior tensile strength, which is essential for maintaining accurate wound closure alignment and providing robust incision support, often functioning as an effective alternative or supplement to traditional sutures or staples.

Are the wound closure strips breathable?

Yes, the Dukal Wound Closure Strips are intentionally designed to be porous, translucent, and highly breathable.

This construction supports the natural healing process by allowing necessary air exchange and facilitating moisture management around the wound site.

Key features ensuring reliable closure and support include:

  • High Tensile Strength: Built with thin, non-woven reinforced fibers in a bilateral pattern for robust incision support.
  • Secure Adhesion: Feature an adhesive backing for secure application.

These strips are an effective alternative or supplement to traditional sutures and staples for maintaining wound closure.

What makes the strips provide strong support?

The Dukal Wound Closure Strips are engineered with thin, non-woven reinforced fibers arranged in a bilateral pattern. This construction provides the necessary high tensile strength to offer robust incision support.
