Key Features
-
Multi-Chamber Design: The bag's multi-chamber design ensures optimal urine separation and flow, significantly reducing leakage, bulging, and odor. This feature enhances discretion and comfort, allowing users to maintain confidence in various settings.
-
Baseplate Options: Available with either a flat or deep convex baseplate. The flat baseplate is cut-to-fit for stoma sizes ranging from 10 to 55mm, while the deep convex baseplate accommodates hole sizes from 15 to 43mm. These options provide a secure fit for diverse stoma profiles.

Spiral Adhesive: Equipped with spiral adhesive featuring six flex zones, the bag offers excellent flexibility and strong adhesion. This adhesive protects the skin by absorbing excess moisture and maintaining natural skin pH, ensuring comfort and reducing irritation.
Convenient Features

Transparent Design: A transparent front enables easy visual inspection and monitoring of stoma output, adding convenience to daily management.
