Feature Highlight: Our Technologies
Designed with Three Layers for Extra Protection
- Top Layer: The outside layer with our exclusive Durahesive™ technology provides leakage protection. This unique hydrocolloid will ‘turtleneck' or gently swell and hug the stoma when in contact with output, creating a seal for added security and skin protection.
- Middle Layer: The thin center polyethylene film is water-resistant and durable. The Rebounding Memory Technology™ provides elasticity to hug the stoma for a precise and personalised fit. Designed to move with your body, it gently expands and contracts with the stoma as it changes sizes for a continuously snug fit.
- Bottom Layer: The bottom side of the skin barrier adheres to the skin with our proprietary Stomahesive® or Durahesive® technologies.These skin -friendly hydrocolloid adhesives form a secure seal to keep the system in place and protect skin from stoma output for longer wear time.
