Frequently Asked Questions
What is a StomaCloak?
It's a soft, washable pouch cover made from an antibacterial fabric specially designed to protect your skin, wick away moisture, absorb odors (activated carbon and zeolite), and improve leak management.
How do I choose my size?
For 2-piece systems, check your wafer box for size and pick the corresponding StomaCloak size. For 1-piece systems, just select the "One Piece" or the “3.50” StomaCloak. If you are wearing a Coloplast system, sizing can be tricky. Most Coloplast systems will use the 2.75 Diameter StomaCloak, but please feel free to call or email us with sizing questions.
How do I care for my StomaCloak?
Machine wash with mild detergent; use hot water and high heat in the dryer to "recharge" the odor-absorbing fabric. The odor features last about 40+ washes. Have a few on hand (4-5 recommended) to rotate, allowing one to be clean and ready while another is in the wash, ensuring continuous comfort.
What are the benefits of wearing a StomaCloak?
Protect your peristomal skin from harmful bacteria, control odors more effectively, wick moisture away from your skin and clothing, muffle the sounds of your ostomy, prevention and early detection of leaks, and extended appliance wear time.
