ABENA’s wet wash gloves can be used for full body wash of all patients or residents in care facilities and are also ideal for people with limited mobility, such as bariatric patients.
The product can be heated in the microwave to make the washing experience more comfortable for the patient or resident.
The structure/imprint of the glove makes it easy to remove dirt and helps to make bed bathing comfortable by minimizing friction on the patient’s skin. This is ideal for people who are at risk of developing IAD, pressure ulcers, etc.
A clinical study from the Netherlands, evaluating this exact product, shows, that a traditional wash with water takes 26 min., whereas using a wash glove reduces the time to just 15 min.
ABENA’s perineal gloves are ideal whenever a patient or resident needs their incontinence product changed. The glove has a lower pH value (4-4.5) than our traditional Wet Wash Glove. This makes it perfect when cleaning the perineal area. It contains 3% dimethicone, which helps keep the skin hydrated and protected which further helps prevent IAD.
The wash glove has at least two sections (front and backside) for good hygienic results. However, you can also use the folding technique to get more sections for a perfect and hygienic result with only one glove. The ideal size of the glove makes it easy to change to the backside with the “non-touch technique”.
ABENA Washing Lotion is a mild and effective cleansing product for intimate hygiene.
The washing lotion effectively removes perspiration salts and unpleasant body odors and leaves a protective layer on the skin. Furthermore, it helps reduce inflammation as it contains allantoin. In combination with a soft cloth or wash glove, our washing lotion provides a very gentle washing experience with little friction to the skin.
Simply apply a small amount of product to a dry wash glove, paper towel, or cotton round, and clean the skin with wiping motions.
ABENA’s Cleansing Foam is a mild and effective cleansing product and a great alternative to conventional washing with water and soap.
The Cleansing Foam is particularly suitable for people with thin skin that requires as little friction as possible when washing. The foam is very easy to apply with a dry wash glove, paper towel, or cotton round or directly on the skin.
ABENAs’ Cleansing Foam feels super-light on the skin and is ideal when changing incontinence products, as it effectively dissolves feces and removes unpleasant body odors.
Excess foam can easily be wiped away with ABENA’s wash glove for single use.
ABENA’s Hair and Body Wash is a no-rinse soap that effectively cleans hair and body.
This liquid formula is massaged directly into the roots of the hair and dried off with a towel. For body wash, apply the product to a wash glove or washcloth and clean the skin with circular motions.
Wash routines are made easy as there is no need to remove the product using water and the bed linen, therefore, stays dry.
ABENAs’ Hair and Body Wash effectively removes unpleasant odors and leaves the skin refreshed.
ABENA Shampoo Cap is a 2-in-1 solution that contains both shampoo and conditioner.

The cap can be used at room temperature, but for a more comfortable experience, it can be heated in the microwave (incl. packaging) for 15- 20 seconds - max. 800W. The recommended temperature of the cap during use is max. 40 degrees C.
