Rescue Essentials Announces Partnership with KT Tape®
Rescue Essentials and KT Tape® are pleased to announce a partnership agreement whereby Rescue Essentials is appointed the exclusive distributor of KT Tape® to the US Military. Under terms of the arrangement, Rescue Essentials will have exclusive rights to market, sell, and distribute KT Tape® to the US Military, with non-exclusive rights to market, sell, and distribute to civilian markets.


KT Tape® is a premier brand of kinesiology tape, a leading edge treatment for the prevention and mitigation of pain caused by exertion and fatigue, and for the maintenance and restoration of range of motion. Currently available as part of Rescue Essentials’ complete online offering of Tactical Medical Supplies, KT Tape® is uniquely formulated to decrease pain while increasing mobility.


KT TAPE® PRO is performance engineered on a synthetic substrate to work in the most austere environments. It reduces or eliminates pain, and provides support exactly where it is needed. KT TAPE® PRO can stay in place through multiple demanding workouts for up to seven days. It will stay in place in the harshest conditions, including showers, humidity, cold, and even submersion.


Original KT TAPE® is built on a cotton substrate and provides targeted pain relief similar to KT TAPE® PRO, but is not designed to remain in place as long. Original KT TAPE® will stay in place through multiple workouts and last for up to 3 days. As the less expensive option, this makes it a good choice for the weekend warrior or non-professional athlete. It can last through almost any condition to which your routine subjects it.


The Rescue Essentials selection of KT Tape® includes the rolls of 20 pre-cut strips, the Jumbo 150 strip roll, and the KT Tape® Pocket Pack. The KT Tape® Pocket Pack was designed by Rescue Essentials for the tactical operators who need the support of KT Tape® but can’t carry a bulky roll. In each pack you have enough KT Tape® for 1-2 applications. Each pack contains 2 Beige KT Pro strips, 2 Black KT Pro strips, 4 alcohol wipes, 2 skin tac wipes, and instructions on how to treat the most common injuries. Never has it been easier to keep KT Tape® close at hand. The Pocket Pack was designed by Rescue Essentials specifically for Special Operations Forces and to be as slim as possible and easily fit in any pocket.
