Description

Renfrew Foam Underwrap – Beige

Renfrew Foam Underwrap (also called pre-wrap) creates a comfortable barrier between skin and athletic tape. It helps prevent irritation, allows smoother tape removal, and speeds up sideline applications in sport and rehab settings. The lightweight foam conforms easily to contours, won’t stick to skin or hair, and removes cleanly after activity.

Great for: skin protection under #188/#388 athletic tape, securing pads and cold packs, hair and headband control, light compression layering, and quick on-field applications.

Key Benefits

  • Comfort buffer: protects skin from friction and adhesive irritation.
  • Faster taping: smooth foam layer lets tape glide and unroll evenly.
  • Clean removal: non-adhesive foam lifts off without residue.
  • Multi-use: anchor pads, hold socks/shin guards, manage hair/sweatbands.
  • Clinic & team friendly: available in singles or economical case of 48.

What does foam underwrap do, and when should I use it?

Underwrap (pre-wrap) creates a soft barrier between skin and tape. It helps prevent irritation, speeds up application, and makes tape removal easier. Use it under rigid athletic tape or elastic wraps, to secure pads, or as a quick hair/sweat control band.

Will the tape still hold if I use foam underwrap?

Yes. Apply a thin, single layer of underwrap without stretch, then tape over top following your usual technique. You’ll get a secure hold with improved comfort and cleaner removal.

Is Renfrew Foam Underwrap adhesive?

No. It’s a non-adhesive foam that does not stick to skin or hair. Your tape adheres to itself and compresses the underwrap in place.

Can I reuse foam underwrap?

No. Underwrap is a single-use consumable. For hygiene and consistent performance, use a fresh piece for each application.

Should I choose a single roll or a case of 48?

Choose a single roll for personal or occasional use. Select a case of 48 for teams, clinics, or athletic programs that tape frequently and need the best per-roll value.

Does the beige colour show through tape?

Beige is neutral and designed to be unobtrusive under most tapes. If appearance matters (e.g., for uniforms), it’s an excellent low-visibility option.

Is this the same as pre-wrap I’ve used with athletic tape before?

Yes—“foam underwrap,” “pre-wrap,” and “under wrap” are commonly used terms for the same product category. Renfrew’s #160R is a reliable choice for sport and rehab taping.
