This topic is all about reviewing and discussing the performance of Salts Stoma Seals, Barrier Rings, and Bags. The original reviewer revisited a previous test and added a couple of new products to the mix, ultimately highlighting the Salts Seal as the standout performer. Here are some key points and insights shared by the community:

- The Salts Seal is noted for being gentle on the skin around the stoma.
- Unfortunately, it's not available in the U.S. but can be found in the U.K., Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and other countries where Salts products are distributed.
- The reviewer is also trying out a Salts one-piece convex drainable bag, which comes with interchangeable colored covers.

Additional Information:

- If you're interested in trying out samples, Salts Healthcare in New Zealand can send them directly upon request, without needing approval from a nurse.

Advice and Insights:

1. Barrier Rings & Seals:
- Many users highly recommend Salts barrier rings, especially the Aloe-infused versions, which are praised for healing skin issues and providing a strong seal.
- Salts Aloe Vera Secuplast Hydrostrips are another option for extra skin protection.
- For those who aren't fans of most moldable rings, Welland’s Hydra Seal with Manuka Honey is noted for its healing properties, though some users have experienced candida flare-ups due to the honey.

2. Pouches/Bags:
- The Salts “Confidence B” range, which is a one-piece and very flexible option, is appreciated for its comfort, especially for those with an active lifestyle. It comes in black, white, and beige, with black being the most popular.
- The black Salts bags are particularly favored for their appearance, and those outside the distribution area are encouraged to ask insurers or suppliers to import them.

3. Company & Support:
- Salts Healthcare is praised for its research and development culture, with staff being responsive and helpful.
- Users in countries where Salts products aren't available, like the U.S., are encouraged to advocate with insurers or distributors to gain access, given the large potential market.
