This bulk case format (12 boxes × 12 rolls per box = 144 total rolls) is designed for high-volume users like EMS stations, athletic training facilities, urgent care clinics, and first responder agencies. Buying SKU 11-157-1 in case quantities ensures you never run out during critical moments and provides better cost-per-roll value compared to single-box purchases. Each 1" × 10 yd roll is individually wrapped for hygiene, making it ideal for stocking multiple jump bags, trauma kits, or facility supply rooms.

The Kemp USA Porous Tape 1" × 10 yd is engineered to tear cleanly by hand without scissors, which is critical when you're wearing gloves, managing a patient, or working in low-light conditions. The high-tensile-strength cloth construction provides strong support while still allowing controlled tearing along the width, so you can quickly secure bandages, splints, or IV lines without fumbling for cutting tools.

Unlike occlusive vinyl or plastic tapes, the Kemp USA Porous Tape features a breathable cloth weave that allows air circulation and moisture vapor transmission. This reduces the risk of skin maceration, irritation, and allergic reactions during extended wear—especially important for elderly patients, those with fragile skin, or athletes who need tape to stay on through sweat and movement. The porous design also helps adhesive bond better to contoured areas like joints and digits.

Yes. The Kemp USA Porous Tape is manufactured without natural rubber latex or DEHP (di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate), making it safe for latex-sensitive patients and compliant with healthcare facility protocols that require latex-free supplies. This is especially important for EMS providers, schools, and workplaces where patient allergy status may be unknown during initial treatment.

The Kemp USA Porous Tape 1" × 10 yd (SKU 11-157-1) combines high tensile strength for secure compression with a porous weave for breathability—a balance that standard first aid tape often lacks. It conforms to body contours (elbows, knees, ankles) without bunching, holds securely even on hairy or sweaty skin, and is single-use disposable to maintain infection control standards. The 1" width is ideal for securing gauze pads, stabilizing finger injuries, and taping IV catheters without excessive bulk.
