About Convatec
What started in the laboratory of a brilliant scientist, Dr. James Chen, has evolved into Convatec, a symbol of innovation in the MedTech industry. Founded in 1978 as a division of E.R. Squibb & Sons, Convatec began its journey with the introduction of the Stomahesive® skin barrier. This revolutionary hydrocolloid adhesive transformed ostomy care, setting the stage for a legacy of innovation.
Over the years, our product portfolio has expanded significantly, encompassing advanced wound care, continence care, and infusion care products, like the renowned AQUACEL® and Hydrofiber® Technology. Convatec is not just about products; we provide holistic solutions that enhance patient care and improve outcomes, emphasizing our commitment to addressing chronic conditions.
