ABOUT CORSINEL

At Tytex, we have a vision: "We want people with a stoma to live as they like. We want to improve the quality of their lives through the supply of best in class ostomy support garments".
This vision is embodied in our Corsinel product range. We continuously design and develop improved ostomy and hernia support garments to offer a full range covering all the different support needs of our users — depending on their type of stoma and possible hernia.
OSTOMY AND HERNIA CHANGES A PERSONS LIFE
Living with an ostomy has a great impact on a person’s everyday life. An ostomy challenges a person’s social life, body image and sense of self-esteem.
An abdominal surgery where the large abdominal muscle is cut may also increase the risk of getting a hernia resulting in much inconvenience: improper fit of ostomy appliances, risk of leakage, negative body image and appearance, discomfort, pain and sense of gravity etc.
With or without surgery, this common condition requires special attention and support. Therefore, all products in the Corsinel underwear product portfolio for hernia management is designed like normal underwear and is comfortable to wear. The users have possibilities of chosing between a variety of support level options enabling support at any time of the day and in any kind of use situation.
All our research into ostomy and hernia lead to the realisation that with the right level of support, the quality of life of the individual ostomate will improve. As the level of support required from the Corsinel products is individual and depending on the user's condition, we offer a complete range of ostomy and hernia care products covering three support levels: light, medium and maximum. Moreover, the Corsinel product range is also developed to optimally help alleviate the potential challenges the users experience in regards to the psycological aspects of having a hernia and ostomy.

LETTING OSTOMATES AND PEOPLE WITH HERNIA LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST
To help ostomates and people living with hernia live their life the way they like, we have developed a broad range of products for hernia prevention and ostomy and hernia care. The Corsinel product potfolio is developed in close cooperation with doctors, nurses and ostomates to ensure optimal performance under any condition, comfort and high quality at all times and in any situation.
MADE TO FIT ANY BODY ANATOMY
We make sure to design the Corsinel ostomy care products with the individual body anatomy in mind. Corsinel ostomy underwear, tubes and belt products must fit to make a difference and be used. Therefore, Corsinel ostomy care products are made in a 4-way-stretch material that will always adapt to your specific body contour. This unique flexibility also ensures that Corsinel ostomy products support the stoma or hernia without obstructing stoma flow.
OPTIMAL USER COMFORT IS AT THE HEART OF OUR OFFERING
As we are well aware that the Corsinel ostomy and hernia products will often be worn all day long and possibly at night, the breathable products are designed with comfort in mind. We want our ostomy care products to be wearing aids, addressing and easing challenges in your daily life.
4-WAY
STRETCH
The textile will adapt to the body shape at all times ensuring that the product will provide the necessary compression needed for recovery, as well as the best possible comfort at all times during prolonged wear.
TARGETED COMPRESSION
AND FIXATION
Targeted compression and fixation means that our products are designed to provide the necessary compression and fixation exactly where needed. By controlling compression on the scar tissue, the healing process advances faster and patient comfort is hightened. The compression zones are specially designed into each product based on indication.
SEAMLESS
KNITTING
For optimum healing, the surgery site needs rest. That is why our products are designed to guarantee no seams in the wound or scar area and at any other critical sites of the applied area. This provides maximum skin friendliness and prevents pressure marks, as well as irritation of skin and tissue.
FACT-BASED
SIZING
When it comes to medical textiles and post-op garments, no size fits all. That is why we base all our sizes on three parametres; statistical body knowledge, comfort stretch measurements and extensive knowledge and experience with the combination of knitting methods in different materials. The combination of these 3 parameters defines our size defintion, ensuring perfect fit at all times.
