Material properties of the Sugar Jewelry® Tapes:

Our recommendation for easily applying the ring tape for Libre 3, even on hard-to-reach areas of the body:
To make applying the ring tape incredibly easy without any help, we've developed small, reusable plastic rings called TapeGuards. These form a flexible "frame" onto which the tape can be conveniently applied. The TapeGuard, now covered with the ring tape, is then placed onto the Libre 3.

Tips for border tapes with holes:
We have developed our adhesive aid TapeGuard for tapes with a hole: TapeGuard is a small, flexible plastic frame that fits exactly around your sensor and onto which the tape is stuck.

Can I change the tapes while the sensor/pod is running?
You can easily remove or replace the tape at any time while the sensor/pod is in use: Press the sensor/pod firmly onto the skin from above and carefully peel the tape around the outside from the skin. While you continue to press the sensor/pod firmly onto the skin with one finger, first pull part of the tape away from the sensor/pod until a sufficiently large area of the sensor/pod without any tape is visible. Press this area of the sensor/pod without any tape with your finger and peel off the rest of the tape.
