About Us
Our products have been used by millions—even billions—of people for more than a century, giving BAND-AID Brand an iconic place in American culture. We reached that place through a history of innovation, healing, and caring. And while we're always looking forward to see what we can do next and how we can help, sometimes it's good to take a look back and see how far we've come.
In 1920 Combining two products from Johnson & Johnson—adhesive tape and gauze—Earle Dickson, a cotton buyer, creates a bandage that his wife can apply herself. And the BAND-AID Brand adhesive bandage is invented.
