Varying Needs
Your needs may vary when you are at home, at work or when you are travelling abroad. Some catheter models are designed to work well in less hygienic environments or where fresh clean water facilities are limited. LoFric offers the widest choice of catheter types, sizes and kits available on prescription.
Unique Urotonic Surface Technology
Every LoFric catheter is a low-friction hydrophilic catheter with Urotonic Surface Technology, a unique surface layer that makes the surface layer isotonic to urine, resulting in a catheter which is extremely gentle and comfortable to use.
When the surface layer is activated by water it creates a slippery surface which is maintained throughout the whole catheterisation process, LoFric reduces friction against the urethra during catheterisation by up to 95% compared to traditional catheters used with gel.
Tried and Tested
LoFric is the most tried, tested and documented hydrophilic catheter and is the only catheters to have independent long-term clinical evidence (over more than ten years) to support its use. These studies prove that long term use of LoFric is safe and you will avoid complications such as urethral strictures, pain and damage to the urethra and other complications over time.
Hygienic
LoFric Primo and Hydro-Kit II catheters have integrated handling aids, so that you don’t have to touch the catheter itself during use. This makes for a more hygienic process as you will reduce the risk of contamination from your hands, which could lead to infection.
Water Supply
Primo and Hydro-Kit II also contain a sterile water supply which is integrated into the packaging, so using these products means you don’t have to worry about bacterial contamination from the water supply, important if you’re travelling abroad. The integrated water sachet also means that you can catheterise discreetly if you have to use public toilets, at work for example.
Discreet
LoFric Primo and Hydro-Kit II are packaged so that they are small, flexible and discreet. They also contain a separately packaged water sachet so that the packaging remains foldable, allowing you to carry these catheters in a purse, pocket or bag, a specially designed pouch is also available, see our accessories section for further details.
