Skin protectant wipes and sprays are used to form a protective barrier on the skin, especially in areas exposed to moisture, friction, or irritants. These products help prevent skin breakdown, irritation, and conditions such as incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD). They are commonly used in hospitals, long-term care facilities, and at home for patients with incontinence or fragile skin.

At ATC Medical, we offer a wide selection of skin protectant wipes, sprays, and creams designed to shield delicate skin from adhesives, moisture, and friction. Our products provide gentle, sting-free protection while supporting adhesion, comfort, and long-term skin health for patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals.

How Skin Protectant Wipes and Sprays Work

When applied, skin prep protective barriers leave behind a thin, invisible film that dries within seconds. This film acts as a protective barrier between the skin and external irritants such as adhesives, body fluids, and friction, without affecting the adhesion of medical devices.

Skin barrier wipes and spray are used before applying:

  • Ostomy system skin barriers or wafers
  • Adhesive dressings and tapes for wound dressings
  • Medical adhesive spray
  • External catheters or pouch systems
  • Incontinence products (pads, briefs, or guards)

Key Benefits of Skin Prep Products

  • Provides Skin Protection: Reduces the risk of Medical Adhesive-Related Skin Injury (MARSI) by protecting users from skin issues associated with repeated adhesive removal.
  • Shields from Body Fluids: Forms a waterproof layer that guards against exposure to urine, feces, wound drainage, and body fluids.
  • Enhances Adhesion: A slightly tacky finish helps adhesive devices stay in place longer, improving wear time and reducing the frequency of changes.
  • Sting-Free Protection: Many formulas are alcohol-free and designed to be gentle on sensitive skin, helping prevent skin irritation and minimizing pain and discomfort during application and throughout the patient's day-to-day.
  • Fast-Drying and Non-Greasy: The rapid-dry barrier film won’t interfere with adhesive contact or leave a residue.

Product Types

  • Skin Protectant Wipes: Individually packaged, pre-moistened skin prep wipes for easy, hygienic single-use application, ideal for travel or bedside care.
  • Skin Protectant Sprays: Pump or aerosol formats for broader coverage, minimizing touch on delicate or healing skin.
  • Skin Protectant Creams: Rich, moisturizing formulas that create a lasting barrier against moisture, friction, and irritants to help maintain healthy, comfortable skin.

Common Applications

Some applications of Ostomy include:

  • Ostomy sites (for protecting peristomal skin)
  • Incontinence management (shielding against prolonged moisture)
  • Wound care (protecting surrounding intact skin)
  • Under braces, tubes, or dressings to prevent friction and irritation
