SpeediCath Compact Eve, which Coloplast launched in 2014 and has since been launched in several countries across Europe, is a discreet female catheter that combines function with an aesthetic design inspired by female lifestyle products such as cosmetics. Successful integration of design and function 'We are very proud and pleased to have won a Red Dot Award.
