Innovation That Improves Lives

For half a century, ConvaTec has worked to empower people with chronic conditions, helping them lead the life they want. Since our story began in 1978, we’ve developed a range of advanced products that allow ostomates, people affected by incontinence, chronic wounds and by other chronic conditions take control of their day.

In everything we do, we strive to improve the lives of the people we touch, providing people in Australia and New Zealand with the resources and education they need to enjoy the best quality of life.
