Designed for Suitable Minor Wound Closure
AEROPLAST™ Butterfly Wound Closures are designed to help support closure of suitable minor wounds without using sutures or staples.
The butterfly shape gently helps draw wound edges together while allowing the surrounding skin to move naturally. This makes the closures useful for suitable small cuts, lacerations and surgical incisions where adhesive closure is appropriate.
These closures are intended for suitable minor wounds only and are not a substitute for professional wound closure where medical treatment is required.

Each butterfly closure is supplied in sterile individual packaging to help maintain hygiene before use.
The box of 10 is well suited to:
- Workplace first aid rooms
- Home first aid kits
- Schools and childcare facilities
- Medical centres and clinics
- Community organisations
- Travel and vehicle first aid kits
- Sports first aid supplies
- First aid kit replenishment
The individually wrapped format makes it easy to use only what is needed while keeping the remaining closures protected until required.
