Smith AND Nephew Opsite 

The film has high moisture vapour permeability which helps in the prevention of accumulation of perspiration & other fluids under the dressing. It has an acrylic adhesive which minimises the risk of skin damage when the film is removed. The Opsite Flexifix has been designed in a way that allows for easy application of the film to awkward areas of the body and other awkward surfaces such as dressings and tubes.
