The Timesco single use TourniButton tourniquet is a quality product offering savings when compared to other single use tourniquets available on the market.

Protection from cross-infection : Single use tourniquets are recommended to protect against cross infection as it is effectively impossible to disinfect reusable tourniquets.

Easy to use : The TourniButton is easy to reposition & tighten, featuring a simple single-handed release for quick removal.
Patient Comfort: The latex free TourniButton uses a soft, elasticated material for patient comfort and can be conveniently joined together for larger arms. Cut the cost of HCAI’s: Healthcare associated infections are estimated to cost the NHS approximately £1 billion a year.¹ Switching to a single use tourniquet will provide ongoing savings and increase patient safety.
