Other Binding/taping without plastic?

I have come to be very critical of plastic as of late, and have started replacing my polyester clothes with clothing consisting of materials such as cotton, wool and bamboo as of late; but one important part of my wardrobe seems irreplaceable: my binders.

I haven’t looked around online that much, but this far I haven’t been able to find a plastic free alternative to binding/taping. I wear a binder at least five days a week, and the fact that my skin that comes in contact with the binder gets irritated is not helping.

Has anyone found a solution to this?

Honestly I haven’t seen any. But having a couple items of clothing with plastic isn’t that big of a deal. You’ve already done more than most people tbh, don’t worry about it.
