About Us

The new Skinnies product range became available as a result of a partnership between Skinovations Ltd and Ian Davenport, Managing Director of Skinwear Ltd.

Skinovations is focused and passionate to find better solutions for the alleviation of the dreadful symptoms associated with eczema, a passion that comes from personal experiences of the founder of Skinovations through a young close family member who suffered the discomfort, and school embarrassment, of having to use traditional protective wrappings.

Ian Davenport and his family have been specialist, and expert, garment manufacturers for many years in the Midlands. Although primarily major suppliers of fashion garments to some of the biggest retailers in the country Ian’s deep knowledge of materials and yarns, and his technically extremely advanced machinery and expertise, meant he was ideally placed to be able to deliver uniquely comfortable and effective garments.

Since the start of 2008 Skinovations and Skinwear have worked hard with a wide range of hospitals, senior health practitioners, parents and actual garment users to design, redesign and thoroughly test a brand new product range that is now ready for supply.

These new Skinnies garments are:-

• seam free to avoid movement restriction, bulk and friction
• have a better body fit for more comfort and are superbly soft and wearable
• come in different colours to avoid the medical bandage look and encourage use
• have been tested to withstand more than 50 washes for real durability

They have made sure that these garments exceed the exacting standards required by the British National Formulary on which they are now also listed as prescribable by doctors in the NHS.

The Skinovations and Skinwear teams are determined to keep listening to the needs of people needing help with a range of uncomfortable skin conditions and already have a number of new products at the design and test stage. They will be available soon.

In the meantime please feel free to let us know what innovations you would like to see us encompass and we will let you know when it can be done.
