The TouchDRY PLUS Underpad by Haines is the most absorbent pad in the TouchDRY range, engineered specifically for maternity and bariatric applications. Capable of absorbing over 5 litres of fluid, it features a soft, flat absorbent layer with a waterproof yet breathable underside, making it thicker and more capable than standard TouchDRY pads. It is designed to handle the thicker fluids common in birthing suites, providing reliable protection before, during, and after birth.
TouchDRY PLUS is 20 times more breathable than traditional Pinkies or Blueys, helping to maintain the skin microclimate and reduce the risk of moisture-related skin damage for expecting mothers. Its structural integrity is maintained even when fully saturated, protecting underlying equipment and pressure redistribution surfaces without the need for constant linen changes. Available in a standard carton of 40 or a winged version in a carton of 30, TouchDRY PLUS supports both patient comfort and operational efficiency across obstetrics departments.
Features & Benefits
Exceptional Fluid Absorption — Each TouchDRY PLUS pad absorbs over 5 litres of fluid, with a high fluid handling capacity of 8.1 litres per m² per 24 hours (AWTA 62), significantly reducing the risk of spills in busy maternity wards.
Superior Breathability — TouchDRY PLUS is 20 times more breathable than Pinkies or Blueys and 13 times more breathable than Depend bed pads, as independently tested to ASTM E96-2012 by AWTA, helping to preserve the skin microclimate.
Skin-Safe Soft Construction — Designed as a flat, soft sheet for direct skin contact, TouchDRY PLUS is gentle on sensitive skin and suitable for use during wound care, surgical procedures, and postnatal recovery.
Maintains Structural Integrity When Saturated — Unlike standard underpads, TouchDRY PLUS retains its form and function even when fully saturated, ensuring continuous protection without breakdown or bunching.
Compatible with Pressure Redistribution Surfaces — TouchDRY PLUS is fully compatible with all pressure redistribution surfaces, supporting underlying micro-climate therapies without compromising their effectiveness.
Reduces Linen Changes and Operational Costs — By effectively alleviating strikethrough and protecting equipment, TouchDRY PLUS reduces the frequency of linen changes, lowering laundry demands and operational costs for maternity units.
Always Available for Clinical Staff — As a single-use disposable product, TouchDRY PLUS is always ready for use, eliminating the delays associated with waiting for laundered reusable alternatives.
Moisture Management for Skin Integrity — TouchDRY PLUS actively manages moisture away from the patient's skin, reducing the risk of moisture-associated skin damage, which is particularly important during and after childbirth.
