• One product affected is affected:
  • EBA060 – Bandage compression 4 layer kit component Type 3C High compression (Layer 3) 10cm x 3m unstretched.
• The supply issue is due to supplier manufacturing issues as the last batch failed the in-house quality inspection.

• Once the current stock is depleted the product code will be unavailable to order.
• This product is part of three-layer kit, unfortunately there are no alternatives available. Customers will be able to choose a different compression kit. This will be down to clinical preference due to ranges and sizes available.
• Customers are advised to view the online catalogue for products they deem suitable.

• The supply issue is anticipated to be resolved by 15 May 2025.
