Methods and Protocols

Healthcare Institutions, Clinics and HME/DME Retailers specifying Ensil Fabric should require no change in their measuring methods or order timing protocols. Ensil Fabric’s proprietary Silicone composition provides significant elasticity, without deteriorating, or sacrificing the required compression.

Manufacturers of burn garments currently using a Silicone bonded textile, already know how to use Ensil. Ensil Fabric requires no special handling or changes to the production processes. Our peel-off Polyethylene shipping liner makes Ensil easier to unroll, match to pattern, cut and re-roll for storage.
