Hansaplast Extra Robust Waterproof Textile Plasters (16 Strips), Durable and Waterproof Plaster with Extra Strong Adhesion, Flexible and Breathable Wound Plasters

Probably in common with most Brits, a household staple while I was growing up was the ubiquitous pack of fabric Elastoplast plasters. Over the years these evolved and Elastoplast introduced plastic variants. Yet the one drawback was that they all came off when they got wet. A few years ago I cut myself during a trip to Vienna and headed for the nearest pharmacy. I bought a pack of Hansaplast Extra Robust Waterproof fabric plasters. Frankly, the packaging reminded me of Elastoplast and I thought maybe Hansaplast was the firm's German subsidiary. (I now don't think it is.) These plasters are marvellous! I have yet to find one even coming loose in the shower or bath and they retain their adhesion until physically removed. BUT they are expensive, doubtless because they're imported from Germany. I've just bought some more via Amazon. They ought to become a staple over here, too, then perhaps the price would drop.

good and strong, sticks well

Sturdy and remain in place even after showers.

Stay in place even when wet which is great

These plasters are quite robust. Just be careful if its a very hairy area. I lightly cut my thumb on a mandolin at this was wonderful
