Technology Built Around Your Stoma
Convatec Moldable Technology™
Tri-Laminate Protection
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 personalized 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.

Adhesive Technology
Stomahesive®
Stomahesive® skin barriers are recommended for people whose stoma output is semi-formed to formed. This reliable skin barrier provides a special formula that enables the skin barrier to adhere to both dry and moist skin. It holds firmly to skin while helping to protect against irritating output.

Durahesive®
For people whose output is mostly liquid, stool or urine, we suggest Durahesive® skin barriers for extended wear. Durahesive® is highly durable and resistant to liquid output, offers increased adhesive strength, and gently swells when in contact with liquid stool or urine to help create a more secure seal without harming the skin.

Esteem™+ Soft & Flex Convex
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.
Esteem™+ Flex Convex ProductsAccordion Technology
