Change:

  • The supplier Forma-Care UK has informed us of a supply issue with its Continence Care products.
  • The four affected products are:
    • CFP2068 – Fixation Pants for use with Pads without Legs XL 120-160cm Basic

    • CXP85096 – Fixation Pants for use with Pads with Legs Large 100-140cm Comfort.
  • The supply issue is due to increased demand and lead times.

Impact:          

  • CFQ85000 is available while our current stocks last before being unavailable.
  • CFP2068, CXP85095 and CXP85096 are currently suspended and unavailable to order.
  • Potential indirect alternative products are available to order through our online catalogue.
  • See our Downloads ▼ section to access the product listing for further information on the affected product codes and potential alternatives.
  • The supply issue is anticipated to be resolved by 2 February 2026.

Next Steps:              

  • Customers are advised to log into our website to view the potential indirect alternative products.
  • However, as this is currently a disrupted market and supply is subject to rapid change, the alternatives offered may also be experiencing temporary supply issues and therefore, customers may need to consider clinically reviewing all additional alternatives provided.
  • If you have any further questions, please contact your local NHS Supply Chain Customer Services Advisor.
