Description
Garware X-TEN Sterile Bandage brings the Honeycomb matrix wrap into the sterile field, peel pouched and ready when a procedure calls for sterile compression. The double Velcro closure secures the wrap without loose clips inside the field. Surgical and wound care teams use it where a standard drawer wrap cannot go.
Sterile Honeycomb Compression for Procedure and Wound Care
This sterile version of the X-TEN line keeps the patented Honeycomb knit that distributes compression evenly across the wrap width. Each roll arrives individually wrapped in a peel pouch, so it can be opened directly onto the sterile field. The knitted construction carries more absorbent cotton than ordinary elastic bandages, useful when the wrap overlays a fresh dressing. Double Velcro closures fasten both ends without metal clips, which keeps foreign objects out of the field. Widths run 2 inches through 6 inches in latex and latex-free builds, all beige and sterile. Every configuration ships 36 pouches to the case in the packaging stated on its option.

Why Procedure Teams Choose the Sterile X-TEN
Sterile compression is a small category, and most wraps force a choice between sterile packaging and a closure system that actually holds. This line removes that trade-off with peel pouches and Velcro fastening on the same Honeycomb knit used across the family. It stocks beside the non-sterile line without retraining the team.
- Field-ready format – peel pouches drop straight onto the sterile field with no repackaging step.
- Consistent compression – the Honeycomb matrix keeps pressure even over post-procedure dressings.
- Same handling as the standard line – staff already know the wrap, so the sterile version adds no learning curve.
- Latex and latex-free choice – both builds are offered across the width range, which simplifies sterile stocking.
