Brava® Elastic Tape XL – Maximum Security & Longer Wear Time for Your Ostomy Appliance
Are you looking for extra confidence with your stoma bag? The Brava Elastic Tape XL by Coloplast is the ultimate accessory for anyone who wants their baseplate to stay securely in place – no matter how active their day gets. This is the largest tape in the entire Brava range and the only elastic tape designed to fully cover larger SenSura® Mio Concave baseplates.
With a massive 60% larger adhesive area than the standard Brava Elastic Tape, Brava Elastic Tape XL provides additional support across more of the abdomen. It stops the edges of your baseplate from lifting or rolling, giving you greater security and significantly longer wear time. Whether you have a colostomy, ileostomy or urostomy, this hydrocolloid tape is a game-changer for everyday comfort and peace of mind.
Why Choose Brava Elastic Tape XL?
Coloplast developed the Brava Elastic Tape XL using their advanced BodyFit Technology®. This means the tape is 1.5 times more elastic than conventional barrier strips and leading competitor products (including Hollister Adapt Barrier Extender and Dansac X-tra Strips). It stretches and moves with your body contours and every movement – bending, stretching, sitting, walking or exercising – without losing its grip.
The soft, skin-friendly hydrocolloid material actively absorbs moisture, which helps keep the baseplate adhesive firmly attached to your skin. No more worrying about leaks caused by sweat, moisture or movement. Users report noticeably longer wear times and fewer changes, which means less skin irritation and lower long-term costs.

How Brava Elastic Tape XL Works
Simply place the Brava Elastic Tape XL over the edges of your baseplate like a picture frame. The stretchy hydrocolloid material moulds perfectly to your unique body shape. As you move throughout the day, the tape flexes with you instead of fighting against your movements. This constant gentle pressure keeps the baseplate edges down and prevents the common problem of rolling or peeling that can lead to leaks.
Because it absorbs moisture, the tape actually improves the performance of your baseplate adhesive over time rather than weakening it. This is why so many ostomates say Brava Elastic Tape XL has transformed their daily routine.
Who Is Brava Elastic Tape XL Perfect For?
✓ People using larger or convex baseplates (especially SenSura Mio Concave)
✓ Anyone experiencing baseplate edge lift or rolling
✓ Active lifestyles – sports, gardening, travelling
✓ Warmer climates or those who sweat more
✓ People wanting maximum security and fewer appliance changes
✓ Ostomates with sensitive skin who need a gentle, moisture-absorbing solution
Whether you’re newly discharged from hospital or have been managing your stoma for years, Brava Elastic Tape XL gives you the extra layer of security that makes all the difference.
