ORIGINAL QUESTION:
We used to get boxes of Gypsona CL Extra Fast setting plaster rolls at a
good price. Manufacturer was BSN, but I understand they were bought by
another company and that plaster has been discontinued.
What has been the best price you've found for Extra fast setting plaster
rolls of a quality that you've found acceptable?
 Randy McFarland, CPO Fullerton, CA



RESPONSES:
I am a died in the wool Johnson and Johnson fan. JandJ just sold their
plaster of paris/fiberglass casting tape (Conformable) to BSN. With your
OPGA discount, I do not know of a better quality product for the price.
Once
the ink is signed on the exact amount of this significant discount, I
would
invite you to compare costs. The Conformable is the only fiberglass I
have
consistently seen in every office as we do these Patient Care Clinics. I
do
not have the prices myself. If you would like, I can get them for you.
Take
care. Agnes

SPT 1800 443-1827 has a similar product. It is not considered extra
fast but it is as fast. Prices are great and they give bulk discounts.
It is very creamy if that is what you like. David Falk

Actually, BSN was not bought by anyone. They purchased DePuy, the
casting division of Johnson & Johnson. I am quite certain they still
have the Gypsona. If you want to contact someone there, Christi Ergemeir
is our contact. I cc'ed her so you can have her email address.

used to use Gypsona as well but have switched to Celona. I get it thru
Brantford Medical in Memphis. Those guys handle much more than just
that. They are also the distributor for Kenad-soft goods manufacturer.
