Elastoplast
Elastoplast is a trademark name of a brand of sticking plaster (bandage) or medical dressing made by Beiersdorf. Beiersdorf bought UK and Commonwealth rights to the parent company, Smith & Nephew in 1992 for £46.5 million.
The name has become a genericized trademark for "sticking plaster" in some Commonwealth countries including Great Britain. In medical records an Elastoplast allergy generally means an allergy to any kind of medical dressing.
