A bandage is made of plastic in film or sheet form with a border or borders thinner than the remainder. The cross-sectional shape of the bandage tapers or is bevelled. The bandage may be made from synthetic resin, e.g. polyvinyl chloride, dissolved or dispersed in a liquid plasticizer so that, on casting, the material flows for a short time and the edges thin out. When set, after-treatment, e.g. dusting with medicament, may be applied. According to the Provisional Specification the plastic material may be extruded from a stationary hopper through a narrow slot on to an endless belt having a slightly convex horizontal surface.ALSO:A bandage is made of plastic in film or sheet form with a border or borders thinner than the remainder. The cross-sectional shape of the bandage tapers outwardly or is bevelled. The invention may be applied to patch dressings. The bandage may be made from synthetic resin e.g. polyvinyl chloride dissolved or dispersed in a liquid plasticiser so that, on casting, the material flows for a short time and the edges thin out.
