CHICAGO — CURAD, a Medline brand and leading provider of world-class consumer medical products, has launched CURAD Naturals, an adhesive bandage line containing a variety of all-natural healing ingredients to treat and protect wounds gently and effectively. The inherent soothing powers of well-known ingredients such as Aloe Vera, Vitamin E, and ARM & HAMMER™ Baking Soda are infused directly into the wound pad and bandage surface to cover and protect wounds during the healing process.

“The demand for clean, natural ingredients is migrating to the first-aid space with many natural alternatives being used to treat anything from scrapes and bug bites to wounds and sore muscles,” said Dr. Billy Goldberg, a “New York Times” best-selling author and NYC emergency room physician. “It’s exciting to see companies like CURAD incorporating these natural and efficacious ingredients right into their products.”

The CURAD Naturals adhesive bandage line features the following:

CURAD NATURALS infused with Aloe Vera + Vitamin E

• Each bandage pad and strip is infused with natural Aloe Vera, widely used to treat a variety of cuts, scrapes, and burns, and antioxidant Vitamin E to soothe and moisturize skin. Individually-wrapped bandages are made with breathable and lightweight fabric and a four-sided seal to keep dirt and germs out. Available in 30-count boxes of sterile 0.75″ x 3″ bandages and eight-count boxes in a 2″ x 4″ size.

CURAD NATURALS with ARM & HAMMER Baking Soda

• Bandages are infused with ARM & HAMMER Baking Soda, which provides soothing relief to minor cuts, scrapes, and even insect stings while also helping neutralize and reduce wound odor. Adhesive pads are made with pillow-soft material to cover, cushion, and protect, with an extra layer of cellulose to help absorb excess drainage and a four-sided seal to keep dirt and germs out. Available in 10-count boxes of sterile 2″ x 4″ bandages and six-count boxes in a 4″ x 4″ size.

“We’re excited to introduce this innovative, fresh approach to healing,” says Medline Senior Marketing Manager Kurt Schmidt. “Our CURAD Naturals bandages are perfect for kids and their parents because they contain no harsh or irritating ingredients, while providing a simple, soothing way to protect minor cuts and burns.”
