FAQs

Can these bandages be washed and reused?

No, these are intended for single-use to maintain hygiene and infection control standards.

Why are these bandages blue?

The blue color is used because it is not a naturally occurring color in food, making it easy to identify if a piece of the bandage falls into a food preparation area.

Does this pack include different sizes?

This specific pack contains 10 units of the standard Finger Buddies size; please check packaging for specific dimensions.

Are these waterproof?

The material is designed to be breathable; while it protects against minor contaminants, it is not a waterproof seal.

Can I use these for thumb injuries?

Yes, the tubular design is flexible enough to accommodate various finger sizes, including the thumb.

Do I need to secure these with tape?

No, the construction of the Finger Buddies is designed to stay in place without the need for additional adhesive tape.

Troubleshooting

Bandage slides off the finger during work

Ensure the finger was completely dry before application and ensure you have chosen the appropriate size for the finger width.

Difficulty unrolling the bandage

Ensure your hands are dry and free of oils or excess moisture which can make the fabric layers stick together.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To apply the bandage, simply place the rolled portion over the injured finger and unroll it until the desired coverage is achieved. Ensure the finger is clean and dry before application to maximize the comfort and durability of the material.
