The story behind ReSkin

Benefits
This new generation cycling seat pad represents a tremendous step forward in the prevention of chronic wounds. It can be used as a stand alone product or in combination with a standard chamois for extra pressure absorption. The ReSkin cycling pad is lined with a self-adhesive medical grade polymer gel, specially designed to relieve the friction between the body and the bicycle saddle or rough surfaces like the seam area where the chamois is sewed on the shorts or sand that has made access into the short.
The most important benefits of ReSkin® are:
° Optimum prevention of friction
° High seat comfort
° Excellent moisture vapour transport
° Excellent heat dissipation
° Long term hygienic properties
° Easy-care, washable at 30°C° Skin friendly

ReSkin All-round patch-Anywhere a blister occurs

Alongside the ReSkin® for cyclists, BioRacer also developed a product that can be used anywhere on the body where friction occurs. Blisters on your feet and friction from clothing are some examples of where you can apply the All-round patch to prevent rubbing. Skiing, ice skating, running, horse riding, motocross, cross-country racing and walking are just some sports that can benefit from ReSkin.

The following applies to all types of ReSkin® products:

• Apply ReSkin® directly to the skin wherever rubbing causes problems. Apply ReSkin® to clean dry skin. Cut the ReSkin® to the correct size to get a good adhesive bond between the skin and the product. ReSkin® will immediately relieve friction in areas where rubbed skin is a problem.
• The bi-elasticity of the product (two-directional stretch) creates relief from rubbing by transferring it. Friction now takes place between the Reskin® and the other materials rather than on the skin. It therefore acts like a second artificial layer of skin .
• ReSkin® is breathable, skin-friendly and painless to remove. The specially created adhesive barely removes a single hair from your body.
• The special adhesive used on the surface of the ReSkin® products conforms to ISO 10993-1 and has been tested for cyto-toxicity, skin sensitization, and intracutaneous irritation.
