{"title":"Aetna Felt","description":"\u003ch1\u003eAetna Felt Wound Care \u0026amp; Padding Products\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAetna Felt has manufactured medical and orthopedic felt for over a century, and clinicians reach for it whenever they need dependable padding, cushioning, and pressure relief. Made from wool and wool-blend fibers, felt offers a firm-yet-forgiving density that foam and gauze can't quite replicate — it holds its shape under load, redistributes pressure away from bony prominences, and can be cut and layered to build up exactly the offloading a patient needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePodiatrists and wound care teams use adhesive-backed felt to fabricate custom pads for calluses, corns, metatarsal offloading, and diabetic foot ulcers, where taking weight off a vulnerable area is often the difference between healing and breakdown. Orthopedic and casting departments rely on felt strips and rolls to line splints, protect skin under braces, and prevent chafing at cast edges. Because it comes in a range of thicknesses and in both adhesive and non-adhesive forms, one material handles a lot of jobs across a clinic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuyers typically ask three things: how thick, adhesive or plain, and what size. Thinner felt suits general skin protection and lining, while heavier grades do the real offloading work. Adhesive-backed pieces stay put during weight-bearing and save application time; non-adhesive rolls give you flexibility to secure with your own tape or wrap. Sheets, rolls, and pre-cut shapes let you stock for either occasional custom padding or higher-volume clinic use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're building out a foot-and-wound supply room, pair Aetna Felt with the rest of our wound care range so you have dressings, tapes, and offloading materials on hand together.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/aetna-felt.oembed","provider":"Honest Medical","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
