The Convatec group of companies (which includes Unomedical A/S and its affiliates) (collectively, “Convatec Group”) are committed to ensuring continuity of supply to our customers. Therefore, our transition to the MDR is being prioritised according to the risk classification of our products and expiry dates of their Medical Devices Directive 93/42/EEC (MDD) certificates.

You can access the IFUs here: IFU Section.

Please note:

• All our Class I (non-sterile) products will transition no later than 26^th May 2021 to MDR in accordance with the MDR requirements and the postponement of the application date.
