Hyperseal®

Hyperseal washers are ideal for stomas that have crevices, fistulas or scar tissue that make the skin surrounding the stoma site uneven. Washers also provide extra security for patients who are worried about leakage.

Hyperseal washers are now available in two sizes and two depths to cater for more needs - choose from small or large low profile washers, or our latest small high profile version, which is deeper.

Hyperseal washers have a hydrocolloid base which means they are skin friendly and ideal for sore or irritated skin.

  • Levels uneven skin surfaces
  • Cut to fit or mould around the stoma
  • Available in two sizes and two depths

Hyperseal washers are suitable for:

  • All stoma types
  • Surgical drainage
  • Use as a packing agent

Hyperseal washers are ideal for all surgical drainage including:

  • Chest tubes
  • Surgical drains
  • Feeding tubes
  • Cannula sites for bony prominences on malnourished patients
  • Infusion pumps
  • Nasal tubes

The washer can be adapted to provide comfort and protection and may be used to reduce the risk of pressure sores in patients who are malnourished.  Each washer is made to a consistency that allows you not only to mould, shape and stretch it to your individual needs, but it also remains pliable during wear time.
