Mouldable Technology™
With Convatec Mouldable Technology™ Skin Barriers, the only thing you have to cut out is the cutting out. Molds to your stoma for a custom fit every time, no cutting necessary. The flexible adhesive gently hugs the stoma creating a secure fit with no gaps to help prevent skin complications.
The first-of-its-kind LEAK-LOCK™ system provides a snug “turtleneck” effect for maximum leakage control. The superior barrier absorbs liquid output and swells around the stoma for ultimate security.
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.

Adhesives to fit every body type, stoma location or shape.
As many as 75% of ostomates report skin complications.1 We have three types of adhesives, created to stop skin irritation before it starts. Trust us to get it right the first time, every time.
For people whose stool is solid, we suggest Stomahesive® Baseplates for standard wear.

•Adheres to dry and wet skin
•Comfortable on the skin during wear and gentle to skin upon removal
For people whose output is both solid and mostly liquid stool or urine, who need an all-in-one solution of a soft or flexible convex skin barrier and pouch in a single unit. The increased flexibility in the soft and flex convex skin barrier fits and moves with the contours of the body for comfort.
