A variety of ostomy product solutions

Ostomy refers to a procedure in which an artificial opening, called a stoma, is created to enable elimination of bodily discharge. The stoma is often created in the abdominal area but dependent on the root cause it is either the colon, ileum or bladder that is impacted.  Different outputs require different solutions.

 


Avery Dennison Medical offers proprietary technology for pressure-sensitive adhesives, including hydrocolloids.

Avery Dennison Medical has a wide portfolio of ostomy adhesive solutions, including hydrocolloids; rubber-based, highly breathable pressure-sensitive adhesives. These adhesives are well-known in healthcare as multifunctional components of medical devices, most notably in ostomy and wound and skin care. 

Patented solutions

The benefits of hydrocolloid adhesives can be augmented with additional features such as vitamins, moisturizers and odor absorbents. 

We have a large portfolio of hydrocolloids that have unique performance characteristics – including moldable hydrocolloids used to provide a better seal on damaged and uneven skin, and hydrocolloids with additives.

Our hydrocolloid portfolio includes a variety of formulations:
