Underpads have a wide range of uses, and with products available in a wide range of sizes and absorbency levels, it is always possible to find one to fit your needs.
When you choose the right product for your needs, not only do you let your absorbing product perform its very best, you also save money and natural resources.
Extra protection for incontinence
Abri-Soft underpads are classically known for their use as extra protection for incontinence. Choose a product that is soft and flexible and fits the size of the area you need to protect – whether it is a chair, a bed, a couch or anywhere else. Consider how much urine needs to be absorbed. Often an underpad with low absorbency is sufficient.
Birth: Labor and delivery
Depending on the phase of labor, your need for absorbency and product size may vary. We recommend high absorbency levels, since the amount of liquid during a birth can be unpredictable. This is why CLASSIC and EXCELLENT ranges are well-suited for labor and delivery situations.
Surgery
Depending on the type of surgery, your need for absorbency and product size may vary. For smaller procedures, a BASIC product in a smaller size may be sufficient.
For longer surgeries, where the surface of the underpad needs to be kept dry for a longer period of time, we recommend SUPERDRY. SUPERDRY contains SAP (Super-Absorbing Polymer), which turns liquid into gel and keeps the surface dry longer.
Wound care
The hygienic choice is to always use an underpad during wound care procedures. Whether caring for a wound or cleaning the wounded skin, underpads are the hygienic choice as an extra layer of protection to avoid cross-contamination, as well as to avoid staining clothes or furniture.
For wound care, choose a product from any Abri-Soft range according to the needed size and absorbency level.
