Steri-Strip skin closures are strips of porous, non-woven backing material, coated with a pressure-sensitive, hypoallergenic adhesive and reinforced with filaments for added strength.

Trusted for their convenience, simplicity and non-invasive design, 3M™ Steri-Strip™ Reinforced Adhesive Skin Closures are the preferred choice in adhesive skin closures. Using sterile 3M™ Steri-Strip™ Reinforced Adhesive Skin Closures gives increased tensile strength to the wound, for reduced scarring from puncture marks or cross-hatching that occur when using by sutures or staples. Studies have shown that for clean contaminated and contaminated wounds, 3M™ Steri-Strip™ Adhesive Skin Closures are associated with a lower infection rate than for those closed with invasive sutures or staples.
