CARBOU Elastic Ostomy Barrier Strips 20-Pack — Hydrocolloid, Waterproof, Latex-Free for Secure Flange Seal

CARBOU Elastic Ostomy Barrier Strips are hydrocolloid, waterproof adhesive strips designed to reinforce ostomy flange seals and reduce leaks while remaining gentle on skin.

These pre-cut, pectin-based barrier strips come in a 20-piece box and are built to sit flat around ostomy appliances, helping secure the edges of your skin barrier and bag. Made without latex, the soft yet tacky adhesive conforms to body movement and contours to minimize lifting, creasing, and odor escape. Whether you’re active or seeking longer wear time, these strips are intended to add a firmer, more reliable seal between your skin and ostomy system.

How do these barrier strips improve ostomy appliance security?

CARBOU strips create a continuous, flat surface around the stoma where the flange meets skin, reducing gaps that allow leakage. Their hydrocolloid composition swells slightly with moisture to maintain adhesion, and the slim profile prevents bulky folds that can weaken the seal.

• Pectin-based hydrocolloid for flexible, moisture-responsive adhesion
• Pre-cut shape streamlines application and eliminates trimming
• Thin, soft material reduces visible creases and edge lifting

Will these strips be gentle on sensitive skin?

Yes — the strips are latex-free and formulated to balance strong adhesion with skin friendliness. They use a gentle adhesive that grips the appliance without harsh removal, helping lower irritation risks for frequent wearers.

• Latex-free construction suitable for latex-sensitive users
• Gentle adhesive minimizes skin trauma during removal
• Conforms to body movement to avoid rubbing and chafing

How easy are they to apply during a routine bag change?

CARBOU strips arrive pre-shaped and ready to apply, simplifying the process at each change. Their slim design makes it easy to press the strip around the flange, smoothing out to create an even seal within seconds.

• Pre-cut pieces remove the need for measuring or cutting
• Quick-press adhesive sets fast to shorten change time
• Works with most ostomy bag flanges for straightforward use

How long can I expect the seal to last and what about odors?

While wear time varies by activity and skin conditions, these hydrocolloid strips are intended to extend the effective seal life of your flange and help limit odor escape. The barrier’s flatter surface reduces edge lifting, which is a common cause of premature changes and odor release.

• Helps maintain a flat flange edge to reduce early lifting
• Improved seal can lengthen appliance wearing time when applied correctly
• Supports odor control by lowering leakage paths around the flange
