It's in Our Nature
SHARING SKIN CREDENTIALS WITH THE WORLD’S BEST BRANDS
Our research into skin-friendly hydrocolloids is one of the reasons we’ve achieved recognition from the Skin Health Alliance. The SHA is the ‘leading international skin health authority, working closely with dermatologists, researchers and skin scientists’ around the globe.
The SHA awards its dermatological accreditation mark to products and services where scientific and clinical research achieves, or surpasses, its stringent skin safety criteria.
This accreditation puts Salts products among some of the leading skin-friendly brands in the world, such as Olay, Bio-Oil,® Carex, Neutrogena® and Pampers.®
Aloe Vera
Every one of our best selling products* featuring the Flexifit® wafer is infused with extracts of Aloe Vera, providing a natural way that may help to soothe and protect skin around the stoma.
Since the ancient Egyptians and Chinese first discovered this powerful plant thousands of years ago, it has become well known for its moisturising and healing properties.
The addition of Aloe Vera in our hydrocolloids is important as it acts as a humectant, which helps to moderate skin hydration.
*Except Confidence® Comfort Flexifit® Neonatal and Paediatric wafers.
