A Danish Twist on Adult Diapers and Incontinence

A Danish company has figured out how to improve upon Depend. 

People all over the world are similar in many respects and dealing with incontinence is no different culturally. A Danish company has figured out how to improve upon what’s been used here in the U.S. since Depend was first introduced in 1978. 

For those dealing with incontinence, leaks can happen at any time and anywhere. A loved one may be bed-ridden and using adult diapers is the right choice. As a caregiver, dignity is one of your most important considerations. What can you do to help maintain a loved ones dignity? Normlacy helps a person feel more dignified and having to wear a brief or adult diaper that leaks is at odds with this.

The products made in Denmark by a company named Abena are far superior to the brand here in the U.S. you may be familar with - Depend. Abena’s adult diaper, the kind with tape tabs, is 3 more absorbent than the Depend protection with tabs product.

They’re called Abri-Form adult diapers.

Abena Abri-Form Air Plus are premium adult briefs. They are designed for moderate to heavy incontinence and provide superior leakage protection, while being discreet and comfortable. They help a loved on feel more dignified because they hold more than 3 times than ordinary adult diapers like Depend protection with tabs.

Abena Abri-Form Air Plus are premium adult briefs specially designed to meet the unique challenges associated with incontinence. From very light to extremely heavy Abena has the product need to manage incontinence. All Abena brand products provide superior leakage protection, while being discreet and comfortable. They help a loved one feel more dignified because they hold more than 3 times than ordinary adult diapers like Depend protection with tabs.

Abri-Form Air Plus are premium adult briefs. 

Here are a few of the features that make them superior to ordinary adult diapers.

• Full breathability leading to improved skin health

Because Abena Abri-Form air plus premium adult briefs work better than ordinary briefs, you won’t need to change them as often -- or your sheets and linens. While they may cost a little more intially, using fewer of them will save you money in the long run. The benefits are cost in use, improved skin health and the most important - maintaining dignity of a loved one.

“I tried samples of the Abena brand that I was not familiar with 

and cost more than Depend. After using the samples, I am convinced 

they are worth the added expense - they work so much better”.

Skin health is of critical importance. 

The Abena Abri-Form has superior breathability all over, rather than just in an area or two like ordinary adult diapers. This features provides comfort and dryness and virtually eliminates moisture related complications. 

Abri-Form also has the highest absorbency, more than any other product on the market and is available in 4 sizes  for a better fit (Depend protection with tabs only offers 2 sizes). Abena sizes: small, medium, large and extra large. 

Because Abena is located in Denmark, they are an ecologically sensitive company and recycle 95% of waste generated. Moreover, 50% of the materials used are souced from renewable sources. What’s most important to you is the use of natural, skin sensitive ingredients. Not harsh chemical bleaching, dyes and inks. They also absorb better than all the leading brands.

The fecal incontinence experts. 

If you’re dealing with fecal incontinence, Abri-San Special is an excellent choice.

Fecal incontinence is a vastly under reported but fairly common problem. It is often associated with considerable costs due to the high frequency of changing and the challenge cleaning up after a fecal loss. For the user, embarrassing situations caused by leakage have a negative impact on their life and often lead to social isolation.

That why Abri-San was invented. Its the only product in the world specifically designed to help with fecal incontinence. The primary benefit for caregivers is containment. For the loved one, its maintaining dignity.

Abri-San Features

Specially Designed Leakage Barriers: The new barrier system with "built-in" pockets keeps feces inside even when released under pressure.

Gentle Air Plus Backing: The breathable Air Plus backing reduces the risk of skin soreness caused by repeated contact with feces.

Designed to allow frequent pad changes: Abri-San Special is based on the cost effective two piece system, minimising product costs, even when changed frequently. We recommend using products from our Abri-Fix range when fitting Abri-San Special.

Improved dignity and lower costs: Abri-San Special can improve care and skin condition, while at the same time lowering the costs of cleaning and washing.
