Leukotape K

Leukotape K is a premium kinesiology tape used primarily in sports medicine and physical therapy to support joints and muscles. The brand originates from Germany, developed by BSN medical, a company formed through the healthcare clinical products merger of Beiersdorf and Smith & Nephew.

Today, Leukotape is part of the Essity group, a global leader in hygiene and health products. While the brand has global reach, the manufacturing for medical professional tapes like Leukotape K remains heavily rooted in Germany, particularly at specialized facilities geared toward adhesive technologies. Ownership of the brand transferred to Essity in 2017 when they acquired BSN medical, solidifying its place in a global healthcare portfolio headquartered in Sweden.
