Trusted materials for ostomy care

High-performance components from Freudenberg Performance Materials provide safety and comfort to patients who become dependent on ostomy bags following an operation. The flange carrier materials are strong and can be coated with skin-friendly adhesives. Because the materials are weldable to the ostomy bag, they support secure fixation of the bag, giving patients the freedom to engage in everyday activities.  

Our comfort covers are made from a soft, water- repellent material which is gentle on the skin and does not get caught in the clothing.
