2025-11-27
Performance & Usage Scenarios
| Performance Metric | Reusable Underpads | Disposable Underpads |
|---|---|---|
| Absorbency | Moderate to high (layered cotton/microfiber; 500-1500ml capacity) | High to ultra-high (SAP + fluff pulp core; 800-3000ml for premium models) |
| Leakage Protection | Good (elastic edges + waterproof PUL layer) | Excellent (3D anti-leak cuffs + backsheet barrier; better for heavy incontinence) |
| Hygiene & Sanitation | Dependent on laundry process (requires high-temperature disinfection to avoid cross-contamination) | Superior (single-use, no residual bacteria; critical for hospitals/immunocompromised users) |
| Comfort | Soft, breathable (cotton/microfiber; reduces skin irritation for long-term use) | Moderate (non-woven top sheet; some premium versions use air-laid fabric for breathability) |
| Convenience | Low (needs washing, drying, storage) | Extremely high (use-and-throw; no extra labor) |
| Suitable Scenarios | Long-term care facilities, home care (stable users), eco-friendly brands | Hospitals, clinics, short-term care, travel, brands focusing on hygiene/convenience |
Production & Customization (OEM/ODM Focus)
| Aspect | Reusable Underpads | Disposable Underpads |
|---|---|---|
| Raw Materials | Cotton, microfiber, PUL (waterproof layer), elastic | Non-woven fabric, SAP (super absorbent polymer), fluff pulp, PE/PET backsheet |
| Customization Options | Size (45x60cm to 90x120cm), fabric type (organic cotton, anti-microbial), color/logo printing | Absorbency level (light/medium/heavy), size, thickness, backsheet material (PE/biodegradable), packaging design (bulk/individual wrapping) |
| MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) | Higher (500-1000pcs per SKU, due to fabric cutting/sewing complexity) | Lower (20000-50000pcs per SKU) |
| Production Lead Time | 30-45 days (fabric sourcing + sewing + quality control) | 15-25 days (faster assembly line production) |
