Abstract
A disposable and short-term bio-degradable sweat band suitable for collecting and controlling perspiration. The band is completely formed by an arrangement of laminations. The absorbent pad is extra long, allowing it to completely encircle the forehead and form a double pad over the area of heaviest sweat. The absorbent surface is always in direct contact with the sweat area. The band uses no elastic tensioning fasteners but it is adjustable as to head size and band tension. The sweat band can be folded into a small self-contained pocket pack with a pull tab for easy opening.
