Konvex
Flexible choice for maximum safety
Our convex products adapt specifically to the contours of your body and thus ensure optimum wearing comfort.
What is the difference between convex and flat baseplates?
Baseplates are normally flat. However, as every body and therefore every stoma is individual, a convex product is sometimes necessary. These products are curved inwards like a dome – so-called convexity – and can therefore exert targeted pressure, causing the stoma to protrude further into the pouch.
Why choose Konvex?
Every stoma is unique – sometimes it lies flat on the skin, sometimes it protrudes slightly above the skin and in some cases the stoma is retracted inwards. The latter can lead to difficulties with leakages if using a flat baseplate, as these do not seal optimally due to the physical conditions. Our Konvex products are designed to exert the right amount of pressure on the skin around the stoma so that the stoma protrudes further into the pouch and the edges are securely sealed. This reduces the occurrence of leakage.
Benefits of our convex products
In addition to the unique properties of our Konvex range, all products individually have outstanding benefits:
- 7 mm height of convexity
- Four convexities
- Comprehensive range of cut to fit and pre-cut baseplates
- Baseplate can gripped behind
- Efficient filter system for odour reduction
- Maintains its convexity whilst in use and does not flatten out on the skin
- Integrated belt attachment
- Soft non-woven cover on both sides
- Available as Combiflange hydrocolloid and Alginate
Unique range features
There are many features of our convex product range:
Hypoallergenic Adhesive
Our products have been especially developed for particularly sensitive skin and may minimise the occurrence of skin irritations and allergies. All of our supplies are 100% latex-free.
High Tack Adhesion
Experience maximum safety and additional confidence. Our skin protection adheres reliably to the skin and thus prevents irritation caused by leaks.
Tapered Edge with Integral Border
The tapered skin protection ensures an optimal seal and fit, especially on uneven body contours.
Superior Leakage Protection
The products create optimum pressure on the skin around the stoma so that it can protrude further into the pouch. This helps to prevent leaks and related skin problems.
Soft and Flexible
The softness and high flexibility counteract mechanical irritation of the sensitive skin surrounding the stoma.

A colostomy is a procedure to drain the colon through the abdominal wall. Everything you need to know about it can be discovered in this article.
An ileostomy is a surgical procedure that involves creating an opening in the abdomen, known as a stoma. This involves bringing a portion of the small intestine – specifically the small intestine (ileum) – to the surface of the skin.
