Ostomy appliance

An ostomy appliance attachable around a stoma, the ostomy appliance comprising:

• an adhesive wafer defining a passage for receiving the stoma, the adhesive wafer comprising:
• a backing layer having a proximal side and an opposite distal side and a skin facing adhesive deposited on the proximal side of the backing layer, with the backing layer extending from an edge of the passage to an outer peripheral edge of an outer perimeter of the adhesive wafer, and the skin facing adhesive deposited on the backing layer from the edge of the passage to the outer peripheral edge of the outer perimeter of the adhesive wafer;
• a collecting bag attachable to the distal side of the backing layer of the adhesive wafer;
• wherein the skin facing adhesive comprises:
• a first adhesive zone and
• a separate second adhesive zone,
• wherein the first adhesive zone comprises a central adhesive zone that surrounds the passage and three or more radial adhesive zones that are connected to and extend radially from the central adhesive zone towards the outer peripheral edge of the adhesive wafer,
• wherein the second adhesive zone comprises two or more interconnecting parts that are separated from each other and each separately interconnects each of the three or more radial adhesive zones to another of the three or more radial adhesive zones,
• wherein each of the interconnecting parts of the second adhesive zone extends in an arc around the passage;
• and
• wherein at least one of the interconnecting parts of the second adhesive zone is provided as part of the skin facing adhesive provided in the outer perimeter of the adhesive wafer.
