A responsible own production
 

ABENA's own production facility in Denmark runs non-stop 24 hours a day, 7 days per week and 365 days per year.
Our non-stop production enables us to produce large volumes of high quality incontinence pads and baby diapers to keep up with the ever increasing demand. 


A production covered by 100% wind energy

More than 50 years of dedicated work to reduce our environmental impact means that ABENA's Danish production facility today is 100% covered by wind energy. In this way, we are able to give our products a clean beginning of their lifecycle.

 

A responsible Danish factory

It is at our production site in Aabenraa, Denmark, that 4 million incontinence products and baby diapers are produced daily.

Running a responsible factory means that we constantly aim to minimize our environmental footprint and reduce our CO2 emissions. Our long-term work to optimize our production facilities according to internationally acknowledged standards for environmental management means that:

  • Our production is covered by 100% wind energy
  • Our CO2 emissions are reduced by 62.1%* since 2009
  • 85.4% of our waste was recycled in 2019

 

*CO2 emissions cover electricity, gas and oil and are calculated based on Energinet's and the Danish Energy Agency's standard factors. Calculations of kWh electricity to kg CO2 are based on Energinet's Environmental Declaration. Calculations from l oil and kg gas to kg CO2 are based on the Danish Energy Agency's standards for calorific values and emission factors.

Own Production abroad

Besides our own production in Denmark, Abena also has own production facilities at our subsidiaries in Sweden and France that help add to our range of absorbent products.

FINESS HYGIENE AB - SWEDEN

Finess Hygiene has been a part of the Abena group since 1999. The Swedish subsidiary is in charge of our own production of disposable Abri-Bed protective sheets that are used for e.g. examination beds and tables, operating tables, ambulances and similar.

Finess Hygiene also manufactures Abena’s disposable bibs for adults that both with and without a pocket. The bibs are designed to provide hygienic protection and absorption in connection with meals.

In addition, Finess Hygiene produces disposable airlaid wipes and disposable tissue wipes for patient care, washing and drying.

 

ABENA-FRANTEX - FRANCE

Our subsidiary in France became a part of Abena in 1992, but has been producing absorbent underpads for the Abena Group since 1984.

Abena-Frantex is in charge of our own production of Abri-Soft underpads with a PE backsheet, fluff, super absorber (SAP) and a non-woven surface.

The Abri-Soft underpads are used as bed protection against incontinence in nursing homes and hospitals and as underlay on examination tables and chairs etc. Like our own production in Denmark, our subsidiaries only use the best, high quality raw materials for the manufacturing of Abena products.

Furthermore, both Finess Hygiene and Abena-Frantex are equipped with high-tech, state-of-the-art production technologies that ensure that all products manufactured by Abena are of same high quality!

The fact that we run our own production facility is an advantage to our customers
 

  • Our own production allows us to remove all costly middlemen, which makes us able to offer our customers the right product at the best price.
  • We are flexible and based on our customers’ needs, we are able to quickly adjust the settings on our production lines to manufacture requested products in the under­pads range.
  • We have in-depth knowledge of our products and are able to explain all features in detail, thereby helping our customers to find the right product for their needs.
  • To maintain a competitive edge, Abena continually invests in the newest high-tech, innovative machines and production lines. At the moment our own production facility in Denmark has 14 state-of-the-art, full automatic production lines and fully attended packaging machines.
