Abstract: A compression bandage for placing on the human or animal body, includes a planar sheet material with a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction, and two transverse edges lying opposite each other in the longitudinal direction, and two longitudinal edges lying opposite each other in the transverse direction, wherein the sheet material is made of a fabric with a warp and a weft system of threads, wherein at least one of the thread systems includes elastic threads, wherein the thread density in the warp and/or weft system of threads is varied in the longitudinal direction of the bandage such that at least one section of the bandage in the longitudinal direction has a warp and/or weft thread density different than an adjacent section.

Abstract: A bandage for applying to a human or animal body, includes a two-dimensional tape material as base structure with a longitudinal extent, made of a textile material with a first side and a second side, wherein a cushion layer is provided on one of the two sides, at least over part of the longitudinal extent of the base structure, wherein the cushion layer is composed of threads and/or fibers which are part of the textile base structure, i.e. which are introduced into and/or drawn out of the textile base structure.
