Video #2: Water Repellency
In a clinical study, we found that the fabric of the upgraded CeraPlus™ Pouches dries faster than the previous fabric.1 This video shows the water resistance of the pouch fabric.
The water drain slit on closed pouches allows water to escape after showering or bathing, without affecting pouch performance. Watch this video to see how it works
Video #3: Fabric Opacity
The upgraded CeraPlus™ Pouches feature a fabric that isn’t see-through, ensuring discretion.4 This video shows the difference in pouch see-through.
Video #4: Discretion Under Clothing
The updated beige color of CeraPlus™ Pouches provides discretion under clothing.1 This video provides a demonstration.
Video #5: Fabric Durability
In a clinical study, we found that for long wear time, the fabric of the upgraded CeraPlus™ Pouch looks less worn compared to the previous pouch fabric.1 This video shows the difference in pouch fabric pilling.
