Cellona Undercast Padding & Casting Supplies

Cellona is a trusted name in orthopedic casting, known for undercast padding that protects the skin and bony prominences before a plaster or synthetic cast is applied. When you're building a cast, the padding layer does the quiet but essential work: cushioning pressure points, allowing a little breathability, and preventing the rigid outer material from digging into the limb. Getting that layer right is what keeps a patient comfortable through weeks of immobilization.

Our selection features the Cellona Synthetic Undercast Padding in a 4-inch width (item 10684), a practical size for arms, wrists, and smaller limb segments. The synthetic construction resists moisture better than traditional cotton wadding, conforms smoothly around contours, and tears easily by hand so clinicians can wrap without scissors slowing down the application. It rolls on evenly, overlaps cleanly, and lays a soft foundation for whatever casting tape or plaster goes over it.

If you're deciding on width, match the padding to the body part: narrower rolls like the 4-inch handle forearms and pediatric applications well, while wider rolls suit legs and larger adults. Most casting protocols call for overlapping each turn by about half the roll's width to build consistent, wrinkle-free coverage — extra layers concentrated over the heel, ankle, or elbow where skin sits close to bone.

Cellona padding pairs naturally with the rest of your casting workflow, from stockinette liners to the outer casting tape. Stocking a reliable undercast padding on hand means orthopedic clinics, urgent care settings, and sports medicine practices can turn around a well-fitted cast quickly and comfortably.
