Convatec Moldable Technology™ has been shown to prevent peristomal skin complications in the majority of patients.¹
Moldable Technology is a multi-layer combination adhesive that is applied by rolling back instead of cutting. After application it gently rebounds to create snug seal around the stoma.²
Eliminating the need for cutting, it provides a custom fit, securing the seal of the adhesive to the stoma, reducing the incidence of leakage.
That means studies have shown:
✔️ Fewer peristomal skin complications post-operatively vs cut-to fit.³
✔️ Reduced peristomal skin irritation.⁴
