About Us
We put our patients at the heart of everything we do. Our journey began 50 years ago with a pharmacist's mission to improve the lives of his patients.
Our History
Tom George Eakin, a pharmacist, saw his patients struggling with leaking urostomy pouches and decided to take action. He developed the game-changing eakin Cohesive seal, which revolutionized the industry.
Our Growth
Since then, we've grown significantly, both organically and through acquisitions. We now have a team of over 700 colleagues across three manufacturing sites and 12 sales and distribution centers.
What We Do
We make a difference in three therapeutic areas: Ostomy, Respiratory, and Surgical. Our innovative products are exported to over 60 countries through a network of 40 distributors and our own offices in Japan, The Netherlands, France, Germany, Belgium, and Luxemburg.
