The ideal size does not depend on the person’s body structure, but rather on the area that needs protection. To make your choice easier, we have prepared a simple guide:

• 60 x 40 cm: Ideal for smaller spaces. It is the right size for discreetly protecting wheelchairs, armchairs, home sofas, or even car seats.

• 60 x 60 cm: Very practical for use during diaper changes. It also works well on the bed, being sufficient for people with reduced mobility who move little during sleep.

• 60 x 90 cm: The most versatile size and the most commonly chosen for single beds. It perfectly covers the width of the bed, providing an extra margin of protection.

• 90 x 180 cm (with side flaps): The best option for people who move a lot while sleeping. The absorbent area stays in the center of the bed, while the side flaps can be tucked under the mattress. This ensures that the underpad does not slip or move out of place during the night.

No, the Intimus Premium Care 90x180 Super Underpad has an absorbent core similar to the 60x90 cm format. The side flaps make up the remaining length. These flaps are used to secure the underpad underneath the mattress.

The flaps are folded underneath and should be fully opened for correct use.

The choice of absorbency level depends on the amount of urine leakage and when the underpad will be used (for everyday use or overnight use, for example). In the Intimus Premium Care range, there are two available options:

Super (Moderate Incontinence): This is the ideal option for everyday use. As these are ultra-thin and discreet underpads, they provide safe and comfortable protection for frequent and heavier urine leakage, without causing discomfort.

Maxi (Severe Incontinence): This is the highest absorbency level. It is the most suitable option for very heavy urine leakage or for ensuring a peaceful night’s sleep without interruptions, keeping the bed clean and the skin dry for longer.

The underpad should be changed whenever it is wet or soiled. Leaving a person in contact with urine, even for a short period of time, can weaken the skin and cause irritation or sores. If the underpad remains completely clean and dry throughout the night or day, it does not need to be discarded; however, for hygiene reasons and due to the accumulation of perspiration, it should be changed regularly.
