A completely novel product, Odacon® is best described as a highly efficient deodoriser for incontinence and human excrement. It is designed for safe use in circumstances where regular contact with normal skin may become part of the management of incontinent patients. The product has been in regular use in normal medical, geriatric and psychiatric institutions in the U.S.A. for many years where its’ unique properties have proved invaluable in improving environmental conditions by greatly reducing offensive odours associated with specific patient groups.
