Veterinary Elastic Adhesive Bandage for Firm Wound Support
Millpledge Bandesive is a professional veterinary elastic adhesive bandage (EAB) designed for clinical-grade wound support applications where both elasticity and direct adhesion are required. Used extensively in UK veterinary practice and now available in Canada through the Millpledge range, Bandesive provides consistent extensibility and strong adhesion for demanding wound care and orthopaedic support scenarios.
The white colour provides a clean, clinical appearance appropriate for post-surgical bandaging. Available in 2.5 cm, 5 cm, and 7.5 cm widths covering the full range from small toe bandaging in cats to larger limb applications in medium-to-large dogs. 4.5 m roll length provides generous coverage per roll.

Why Quality Supplies Matter in Veterinary Wound Care
Every component of a wound care dressing system matters — from the wound contact layer to the outer fixation layer. Using professional-grade supplies designed for veterinary use ensures consistent performance, appropriate material safety, and compatibility with the other components of the dressing system. Home-use or hardware store substitutes may seem interchangeable but often lack the softness, sterility standards, or material specifications required for safe wound care.
VivoPet sources wound care supplies from the same professional veterinary distributors that supply Canadian veterinary hospitals. This means the products available here are the same items your veterinarian uses in clinic — not consumer-market approximations of professional supplies. If your veterinarian has recommended a specific wound care protocol, the supplies available at VivoPet allow you to follow that protocol consistently at home between clinic visits.
Supplement Advisor's Note
Wound healing is a complex biological process that depends not just on the dressing materials used, but on consistent dressing change frequency, appropriate wound cleaning technique, and timely identification of complications like infection or dressing-related pressure injury. If a wound is not showing visible improvement after 5-7 days of home wound care, or if you observe increasing redness, swelling, warmth, or discharge, consult your veterinarian before continuing home management. Early identification of complications prevents minor issues from becoming major setbacks in the healing process.
