We are the healthcare brand of Beiersdorf, one of the leading skincare companies worldwide, situated in Hamburg, Germany. Elastoplast has come a long way since the first Elastoplast plaster, which we developed in 1896, when Smith & Nephew companies (founded in 1856) expanded their business to Wound Dressing. The start of an ongoing success story, driven by progress, quality and innovation.

We‘ve been taking care
of wound healing and skin care
for more than a century

For more than 125 years Beiersdorf has gained experience and competence in wound care, more recently in the field of activity support and treatment of muscular pain as well, striving to improve wound healing and care for your skin ever since.

Elastoplast is a global brand, founded in 1896, sold in 6 countries all over the world (Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, New Zealand, South Africa, and United Kingdom). Since then Elastoplast products have been known internationally for their leading quality. Over 200 tried and tested products and innovations are sold in countries from Germany to Chile, from the UK to Australia under the brand names Hansaplast, Elastoplast and Curitas. Apart from plasters and wound dressings, the product range includes well-tried as well as innovative products that offer solutions for foot problems, sport injuries, pains and strains.
A worldwide brand that you and your entire family can rely on, as it offers you high-quality, modern solutions for the demands and small inconveniences of everyday life.

So how did we get from one small plaster to all of this? Innovation and research have always been at the core of the Elastoplast business, combining tradition with the latest scientific developments: The scientific and cosmetic know-how we have accumulated at Beiersdorf in over 125 years in the fields of skincare, wound care and tapes is something that goes into every Elastoplast plaster we develop. This is something that our customers can rely on and profit from every day.
