Applications and Properties of Plaster Bandages
Plaster bandages are used in medical practices and clinics to treat and immobilize fractures and other injuries. A plaster cast also promotes healing after surgery. The compression provided by plaster bandages keeps the limbs straight and still. This supports recovery in patients with fractures and sprains. In the case of venous diseases, however, pressure bandages with zinc glue bandages are usually used.

They have excellent modeling properties and can be reshaped for a long time after applying a plaster cast. Due to the longer processing time, there is enough leeway to adapt the plaster bandage to the individual patient. While the plaster bandage dries, different positions can be tried.

Alternative Use of Plaster Bandages for Artists
Plaster bandages for various purposes: They are often also purchased as modeling fabrics for craft supplies. Artists, model builders and hobbyists use plaster bandages, for example, to make plaster masks or to make plaster casts of a baby's bump. For the baby bump print, you should rub the belly well with petroleum jelly beforehand.
The postformability of the bandages enables the modeling of precise impressions of a wide variety of objects or body parts. Feel free to ask our service team which bandage is best suited if you want to buy a plaster bandage that you can use to make plaster masks.
If a plaster bandage is used creatively, for example for handicrafts, plaster bandages that harden more slowly are suitable. With these there is enough time to implement all the desired ideas and to design all the details. On the other hand, quickly hardening plaster bandages are popular for modeling plaster masks and other impressions, as the impression solidifies quickly and the mask does not have to stay on the face for long.
