1. Product Definition & Positioning

Hydrocolloid Waterproof Bandages – Standard Strips & Spots are high-rotation retail SKUs designed for everyday wound protection, blister prevention, and minor skin injuries. This product line targets mass retail, pharmacy chains, and private-label programs that require stable supply, predictable performance, and minimal consumer education cost. It sits between entry-level PE bandages and specialized blister/cushion products, making it a core volume driver in hydrocolloid assortments.
