Why Siltape® Soft Silicone Tape Delivers Gentle, Pain-Free Fixation for Fragile Skin
Looking for a medical tape that won’t damage fragile or delicate skin? Siltape Soft Silicone Tape from Advancis Medical is the gold-standard solution. Unlike traditional adhesive tapes that can strip skin or cause trauma on removal, Siltape uses soft silicone technology that adheres gently and releases cleanly – even on the thinnest, most friable skin.
Whether you’re a healthcare professional, carer or patient managing wounds, ostomies, IV lines or medical devices, Siltape delivers secure fixation without the pain or skin damage associated with standard tapes. It’s perforated for easy tearing (no scissors required) and repositionable, making it incredibly user-friendly.
Why Choose Siltape Soft Silicone Tape?
Siltape is specifically engineered for patients with very thin, fragile or sensitive skin – including neonates, elderly patients, and those with dermatological conditions. The soft silicone adhesive bonds only to dry skin and will not stick to moist wounds or damaged tissue, dramatically reducing the risk of skin tears, maceration or irritation.
Clinically proven to be atraumatic on removal, Siltape leaves no sticky residue and can remain in place for up to 7 days depending on the application and patient needs.
Key Benefits of Siltape Soft Silicone Tape
- Gentle on removal – no skin stripping or trauma, even on friable skin
- Repositionable – adjust without losing adhesion
- Perforated roll – tear by hand, no scissors needed
- Adheres only to dry skin – does not stick to moist wounds or open areas
- Breathable and comfortable – conforms to body contours
- Leaves no residue – clean, pain-free removal every time
- Up to 7 days wear time – fewer changes, less disruption
- Versatile medical use – ideal for dressings, tubing, IV lines, fistula needles, eyelids in theatre and scar management
How Siltape Soft Silicone Tape Works
Siltape features advanced soft silicone adhesive (often referred to as Sifix™ Technology). The silicone gently grips dry, intact skin while remaining completely non-adherent to moist surfaces or wounds. This unique property prevents the tape from pulling on delicate tissue during removal or repositioning.
Because it’s waterproof yet breathable, Siltape maintains skin integrity even in humid conditions or under dressings. It moulds perfectly to awkward areas such as the face, ears, nose bridge or around medical devices without lifting or rolling.
Who Is Siltape Perfect For?
✓ Patients with fragile, thin or friable skin (elderly, neonates, dermatology cases)
✓ Securing wound dressings, IV cannulas, nasogastric tubes or fistula needles
✓ Protecting skin from pressure damage caused by tubing (especially face and tops of ears)
✓ Taping eyelids during theatre procedures
✓ Scar management and post-operative care
✓ Anyone who experiences skin irritation or tears from standard adhesive tapes
✓ Paediatric, geriatric and critical care settings
Siltape is the go-to low-trauma tape when regular adhesive tapes are simply too harsh.
Easy Application Guide
- Ensure the surrounding skin is clean and completely dry.
- Pull the required length from the perforated roll and tear by hand.
- Remove the backing paper.
- Apply the tape to secure the dressing or tubing – it will conform instantly to body contours.
- Reposition if needed – adhesion remains strong.
Tip: For maximum security on delicate areas, apply Siltape directly to the skin first, then place tubing or devices on top.
