FAQs
How do these bandages change colour?
They contain photochromic pigment that reacts to UV light. Direct sunlight triggers the colour shift within seconds, and the design returns to its base shade once back indoors or in shade. The effect is reversible and works every time the bandage hits sunlight.
Are the bandages themselves compostable or biodegradable?
No. The bandages are flex fabric with adhesive and are not biodegradable. The eco-benefit of this product is the reusable, recyclable tin packaging and Welly's B-Corp certification, plus a refillable system that reduces repeat tin manufacturing.
Are they waterproof?
No. These are flex fabric bandages, not waterproof bandages. For wet conditions or swimming, look for waterproof-specific bandages instead.
What does B-Corp Certified actually mean?
Welly is a B-Corp Certified company, which means the brand meets verified third-party standards for social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. It applies to how the company operates as a whole, not to the bandages' biodegradability.
Can I refill the tin once it's empty?
Yes. Welly sells a 100-count Colour Changing refill pack designed to drop into your empty tin, extending its life and reducing repeat packaging waste.
How to Use
- Charge the Bandages: Hold the tin lid and bandages under direct sunlight, UV light, or a bright LED for about 2 minutes — the longer the charge, the brighter the glow.
- Clean the Skin: Wash the cut or scrape with soap and water, then pat the area completely dry before applying.
- Peel and Apply: Remove the bandage from its sealed wrapper, peel off the backing, and press firmly onto the wound so all 4 sealed edges adhere to dry skin.
- Find a Dark Spot: Once charged and applied, head somewhere dim to see the glow effect in action.
- Replace as Needed: Change the bandage daily or whenever it becomes dirty or wet.
Pro Tip: Keep the tin near a window or under a lamp so the bandages stay topped up with light — that way the glow is ready to go the moment a scraped knee needs it.
