Incontinence is a condition in which a person loses control
of his evacuation of urine or feces from the body. The most common type of
incontinence is urinary in which the bladder involuntarily release part of the
liquid inside it or it empties fully. Leakage can be embarrassing and
uncomfortable so to prevent this, adult
incontinence products must be used. These products include disposable adult
diapers, pads, disposable underwear and even pants that are all designed for
people with incontinence problems. These items can be bought from any
department stores worldwide. However, if you operate a hospital, a care-giving
facility or a home for the aged, you need to buy incontinent products in bulk.
Even households with an incontinent member need to save when buying these
products. Knowing how to find affordable but durable adult incontinence products will be to your advantage. It can
reduce costs, increase profit, and help you make savings.
Here are some tips on how to save money when purchasing
incontinence supplies for your health facility or for your family member at
home suffering from this problem. First, buy direct from manufacturers. You
will enjoy many benefits in doing this. One benefit is you will get the items
at factory price, which is very much lower than the marked up prices in
department stores. If you buy in big quantities, you will be able to enjoy
additional discounts. You can save on transportation because companies provide
free delivery for bulk purchases. Second,
always compare quality, prices, and other privileges. As a bulk purchaser, you
can look for several manufacturers and let them give you a quotation and an
offer for other benefits and privileges. Get the quotes and compare prices
before closing the deal with one manufacturer.
These people want to get your business and this will make negotiating
with them easy. You can check manufacturers online. They can give you a quote
without you physically visiting their office. In addition, you can purchase
from manufacturers in other countries and the products can be delivered to you
place. Third, go for quality at all times. Quality adult incontinence products must be durable and highly absorbent.
With some brands, one piece on day time and one piece at night time will be
enough. With inferior quality products that have low absorption capability, a
user will need to change several times, making the cost per day higher than
using the more expensive item.
When choosing brands, read product features and
descriptions. If you shop online, you can see these data below or beside the
image of the product. The information will tell you the kind of materials used
in making the item. You will know whether it is for day time or night time use.
Products for day time use are thinner compared to night time use. Users who are
active need to feel comfortable while going to their offices or travelling and
thick and bulky disposable underwear can be too uncomfortable and obvious. On
the other hand, they stay in bed at night and those who cannot move on their
own need to have a disposable protective underwear that will remain fresh
smelling, dry, and comfortable until morning.
There are many kinds of adult
incontinence products according to design. Disposable underwear is designed
like regular underwear for men and women. It has an elastic waistband and leg
opening, making it easy to put on and take off. The leg openings fit snugly and
leakage cannot easily penetrate to the outside.
The cloth between the underwear
and the skin feels like real soft cloth. Inside the pad is a thick absorbent
gel that prevents leakage and foul odor. The materials are skin-friendly and
the user will not develop rashes or skin irritation through long use. Other
incontinence products are designed like pants, with the bottom made with
several padding to prevent leakage and getting wet while moving around. The
pants can look like ordinary pants and can be used when going out. For those
who are bedridden, absorbent pads can be used. These pads are placed on the bed
so that in case of leakage, the linen will remain fresh, dry, and clean. Pads
are also placed on the seat of a chair so that it will not get soiled just in
case a leakage happens.
Those products designed like regular pants and underwear are
priced higher than disposable adult diapers or pads. If you want to save,
select a design appropriate to the needs of the user. If the person is mobile
and still goes to work or socialize, disposable underwear or incontinence pants
are ideal. But if he is bedridden or just stays in the house all the time,
using disposable adult diapers or pads will be cost effective. So if you want
to save buying adult incontinenceproducts, knowing what is the most appropriate design for the user’s
lifestyle will be a great help.
