Urotonic™ Surface Technology

LoFric remains slippery through the entire process

LoFric has a surface layer that binds to water. This gives a wet and slippery surface reducing friction against the urethra by 90-95% compared to a regular catheter with gel. The surface layer maintains the same wet surface during the entire emptying of the bladder. This allows the catheter to slide in and out of the urethra without feeling rough or dry.

Unique
Urotonic Surface Technology Logotype
LoFric is the only catheter in the world with Urotonic Surface Technology – a patented surface layer technology that makes catheterization more comfortable. 

The secret behind Urotonic Surface Technology is a chemical process that makes the surface layer isotonic to urine. Somewhat simplified this means that the salt content of the catheter’s surface is the same as in your urine. In other words, LoFric is carefully matched to the environment of your urethra.
