Disposable Underpads for Beds & Chairs

Disposable Underpads are a lifesaver for many caregivers. Often called "chux" these absorbent pads are intended to catch fluids from any situation and allow for easy cleanup. Smaller-sized pads such as 23" x 36’’ are perfect for couches, chairs, and cribs. The 23" x 36" under pad is ideal for incontinence care in a hospital size or twin-sized bed. The larger 36" x 36’’ sizes offer complete coverage, with thick fibers designed to soak up a large quantity of fluid across a large surface such as a queen or king size bed.

To decide which disposable underpad is right for your needs, first determine where you need the coverage. Are you caring for someone wearing diapers and briefs at night? Or, do you need additional protection on a specific chair? Next, you can decide on the absorbency level which corresponds to how much fluid the adult underpad can hold and ranges from moderate or light to super or heavy. Disposable underpads feature a combination of fluff and polymer core for thorough absorbency and odor control. Strong, leak-proof back sheets are designed to hold fluids and allow for easy and quick cleanup. Once you know how absorbent you need the pad to be and what size, you can choose the number of pads you want to have on hand.
