Reusable incontinence products are becoming popular because of their many benefits. You can buy them in high street shops, supermarkets and online.

Better for the environment

Disposable incontinence products can contain up to 90% plastic. A single pad can take as long as 500 years to break down.

Switching to reusables helps:

  • reduce waste
  • avoid plastic
  • lower your environmental impact

Better for your health

Disposable incontinence products can contain chemical fragrances which can potentially lead to irritation.

Washable products contain no chemicals which may cause your skin to react.

Better for your bank balance

You can save money by switching to reusables, compared to single-use items.
