ABSTRACT:
A drainable ostomy or similar pouch (22) is provided with a closing means (10) which in principle is a clip of known type encapsulated between two layers of plastic sheet material, preferably of the same kind as that constituting the pouch walls (24,26) which are joined together by a seam 28. At least one of the layers of plastic sheet material encapsulating the clip is integral with a pouch wall. If only one of the layers of sheet material encapsulating the clip is integral with the pouch wall, a discharge opening (34) of the pouch is situated at the very bottom of the pouch, between its walls. If both of the layers of sheet material is integral with the pouch walls, the discharge opening (34) is a slit adjacent a hot-melt seam serving to join the layers encapsulating the clip, between that seam and the remainder of the pouch wall in question.
