Skin-Friendly Contact Tapes

AR offers PSA tapes featuring Moisture Transmission Technology (MTT) that provides high MVTR and long-term adhesion to skin. The MTT adhesive wicks moisture away from the skin to reduce moisture buildup, enabling longer wear times and fewer dressing changes.

We can also customize products for a variety of specialized skin applications such as:

  • Cell Harvesting
  • Diagnostic Analysis
  • Therapeutic Monitoring
  • Facilitating the Delivery of Biological Molecules
  • Medical-Grade Adhesives for Long-Term Bonding of Diagnostic Monitoring Sensors to the Skin

Typical thin film dressing applications include:

  • IV Site Dressings
  • General & Specialized Wound Dressings
  • Dermatological Testing
  • Diagnostic Monitoring
