Convatec Showcases and Launches Advanced Wound Care Products and Technologies Convatec, a medical products and technology company focused on chronic condition management, took to the stage to showcase the breadth, depth and momentum behind its Advanced Wound Care innovation pipeline at the European Wound Management Association (EWMA) 2026 conference in Bremen, Germany, from 6–8 May 2026. Convatec’s Advanced Wound Care innovation is supported by compelling new data from randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and real-world studies, with 13 abstracts accepted for publication and presentation at EWMA evaluating outcomes in hard-to-heal wounds across foam, multimodal, nitric oxide-generating dressings, antimicrobial technology and Wound Hygiene. Convatec has launched or secured approvals for five new wound care products since 2022, including: ConvaFoam™: Best-in-class multi-layer foam dressing designed to be repositionable on application to avoid wasted dressing changes. ConvaFoam™ is the only foam dressing that combines three technologies – Aquacel® Hydrofiber®, superabsorber fibers and ConvaTac™ silicone – to deliver superior exudate management with skin friendly adhesion for longer lasting wear time. ConvaNiox™: A solution, shaping a new category in the management of hard-to-heal wounds by combining an advanced dressing technology with a powerful antimicrobial and antibiofilm agent, nitric oxide. ConvaNiox™’s multimodal technology, MultiFusion™, supports the healing of 60% more diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), with 3x faster wound area reduction compared to standard-of-care dressings. Aquacel™ ConvaFiber™: Next-generation, soft, sterile and conformable primary dressing with advanced Hydrofiber® technology resulting in 45% more absorbency (vs Aquacel® Extra™), designed to manage a broad range of acute and chronic wounds. ConvaMatrix™: Recently approved innovative, single use wound matrix - a unique porcine placental-derived technology designed to support the body's natural healing response in DFUs and venous leg ulcers (VLUs). It combines the structural benefits of the placenta with the reproducibility and safety profile of a medical device. ConvaVAC™: First and only Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) system partnered with Aquacel® Hydrofiber® technology utilising a bacterial sequestration and autolytic debridement wound contact layer to control the bioburden whilst delivering NPWT to promote wound healing. This year’s EWMA programme also marks 30 years of Hydrofiber® technology, Convatec’s proprietary wound care platform that underpins the next generation of wound care innovation to help manage the burden of wound care. Almost 1,500,000,000 Aquacel® dressings have been sold worldwide leveraging the technology over the last three decades. As part of the scientific programme at EWMA 2026, Convatec will host a series of symposia to explore emerging evidence from across its Advanced Wound Care portfolio and discuss what it means for real-world clinical practice, including: 6 May 2026 from 16:00 – 17:00: Introducing ConvaNiox™: multimodal, nitric oxide-generating dressing. The session, chaired by Professor José Luis Lázaro-Martínez, University of Madrid, will explore emerging laboratory and clinical evidence, highlighting ConvaNiox™’s multimodal approach to support healing in diabetic foot ulcers. 7 May 2026 from 16:16 – 17:15: A year of healing with ConvaFoam™: Advancing wound care with a next-generation foam dressing. The session will focus on the published clinical data exploring ConvaFoam™’s mode of action in pressure injury prevention, including insights on complex cases from guest speaker Dr Przemyslaw Lipinski, ARGO Medical Centre.

Convatec and Eakin Healthcare Introduce Co-Branded Eakin Freeseal Ostomy Seal in North America Expanding the Esenta Family of Accessories Convatec, a medical products and technologies company focused on solutions for the management of chronic conditions, and Eakin Healthcare, a provider of ostomy solutions, announced the launch of eakin freeseal, the thinnest ostomy seal used to help prevent leaks and protect the skin around a stoma. This new co-branded seal is part of the ESENTA family of accessories, available in the United States. Ostomy seals are designed to create a protective layer around the stoma to prevent leakage. Recurrent leakage can lead to skin breakdown and irritation, leading to longer term issues, both physically and emotionally for patients. With approximately 1 million people living with a stoma in the United States, about 90% experience leakage at some point in their journey. The use of ostomy seals can reduce or eliminate leakage, leading to a better quality of life for those living with an ostomy. The eakin freeseal range includes two product lines, eakin freeseal air, and eakin freeseal versa, providing healthcare professionals with versatile options that combine discretion, comfort and high performance. While Convatec currently addresses the patient's needs with the eakin Cohesive seal, eakin freeseal provides healthcare professionals with a wider range of options to meet their clinical needs. The thinner offering, eakin freeseal air has a depth starting at 1.8mm, making it the thinnest seal on the market and is designed to be paired with convex pouches. Eakin freeseal versa is slightly thicker and designed to absorb fluid at the best rate in the market without breaking down, leading to easier removal for the end user. The thinness of this new ostomy seal, together with its composition and design, allows it to absorb up to four times its weight in fluid without breaking down underneath the skin barrier. This high performance, combined with eakin seals’ moldability, makes eakin freeseal a relatable solution to any person living with a stoma immediately post-surgery. Ostomy seals and barriers designed to prevent leakage and skin irritation is one of the largest product categories in the United States and continues to grow at a consistent rate. This co-branded product reflects Convatec and Eakin Healthcare’s ongoing commitment to patients and healthcare professionals to provide choice – working together to provide a better ostomy experience so patients can live the life they want. Integrating eakin seals into the ESENTA range reinforces the importance of using a reliable ostomy seal as part of the customers skincare routine. Aankondiging • Feb 25
