CureTape® product line

CureTape® product line

Depending the circumstances and the type of client, there are four categories of CureTape®
to choose for the best treatment;

CureTape® Classic

The Classic line is made of elastic high-quality cotton with a breathable, hypoallergenic acrylic layer. It is the most chosen type of CureTape. It is a safe choice and can be applied to all types of clients.
Rolls are available in 8 colours and in two dimensions: standard 5 cm x 5 m and giant rolls of 5 cm x 31,5 m. The four best selling colours are also available in an eye-catching and affordable BigBoy display box.

CureTape® Sports

CureTape Sports tape is made of viscose, a semi-synthetic fibre with a natural base. Viscose has the same comfort as cotton, although it has a softer touch and it dries faster. This material, with our hypoallergenic acrylic adhesive, provides extra powerful adhesion and is water resistant. CureTape Sports is very suitable to wear during intensive sports – even under extreme conditions. It is also very suitable for feet, hand and knee applications.
Rolls available in 5cm x 5 m and in 5 colours.

CureTape® Art

CureTape Art is made by a unique printing process, where the dye is completely absorbed into the fibre, keeping the surface smooth and soft. CureTape Art is the only printed kinesiology tape which uses this technique. The eye-catching prints of CureTape Art combines perfectly with the existing colours of CureTape Classic.
The material is made of elastic high-quality cotton and has the same adhesive acrylic layer as the Classic line.
Available in 6 different prints and in the size 5 cm x 5 m.

 

CureTape® Punch

The quality of Punch tape is the same as the Classic line but the rolls are provided with holes.
This uniquely perforated pattern exerts variable pressure. The perforated pattern causes differences in pressure within the tape applied, as a result of which receptors in the skin and fascia receive even more stimuli. CureTape Punch, provides increased stretch capacity and works three-dimensionally. The Punch line is very suitable for pain relief applications and for many lymphatic applications.

CureTape® Beauty

CureTape® Beauty is gentle kinesiology tape and therefore very suitable to use on people with very sensitive skin such as young children or older people. CureTape® Beauty can also be used for tape applications on vulnerable areas, for example on the face or on thin skin.
