Abstract
A medical bandaging article sealed in moisture-free condition, serially connected with other such sealed articles in roll form. The medical bandaging article comprises an open cell foam layer and a woven fabric layer with several layers of resin impregnated substrates arranged therebetween. The substrate layers are preferably smaller than the fabric and foam layers. A heat fusing web is interposed between the fabric layer and the immediately adjacent substrate layer, and extends beyond the substrates so that upon application of sufficient heat and pressure, the fabric layer and the foam layer are fused together around the periphery of the substrates encasing them between the fabric layer and foam layer. A roll of individually sealed pouches containing bandaging articles are connected together, and between adjoining sealed pouches special perforations are provided for separating the pouches without damaging the seals of the adjacent pouches.
