Essential Information About Incontinence Sheets
Incontinence sheets, often called bed pads or underpads, are designed to protect beds, chairs, and other surfaces from liquid damage. They feature multiple layers: an absorbent top layer to quickly draw in fluid, and a waterproof backing to prevent leaks from reaching your mattress or furniture. These sheets are essential for maintaining hygiene and extending the life of your bedding.
Key Benefits of Our Incontinence Sheets
Our incontinence sheets are designed to provide maximum protection and comfort:
- Superior Absorbency: Quickly locks away liquids, keeping the surface dry and comfortable.
- Waterproof Barrier: A strong, impermeable layer prevents any liquid from seeping through to your bedding.
- Skin Comfort: Made with soft, non-irritating materials for sensitive skin.
- Odour Control: Helps to neutralise unpleasant smells, ensuring discretion and freshness.
- Durable Options: Our washable sheets are built to last, offering a cost-effective and eco-friendly choice.
Choosing Your Ideal Incontinence Sheet
Selecting the right incontinence sheet depends on your specific needs:
- Absorbency Level: Choose lighter absorbency for minor leaks and higher absorbency for heavier or overnight protection.
- Disposable vs. Washable: Disposable sheets offer convenience for travel or temporary use whereas, washable sheets are reusable, providing a sustainable and economical long-term solution.
- Size: Ensure the sheet is large enough to cover the desired area of protection.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are incontinence sheets?
Incontinence sheets are multi-layered, highly absorbent pads designed to protect mattresses, chairs, and other surfaces from liquid damage due to incontinence. They feature an absorbent top layer and a waterproof backing to prevent leaks.
How can I protect my bed from adult incontinence?
You can protect your bed from adult incontinence by using specialized incontinence sheets or bed pads. These are placed on top of or beneath your regular bed linen to absorb any leaks and prevent them from reaching your mattress. You can also use waterproof mattress protectors for an additional layer of defence.
Can an incontinence sheet hold a full pee?
The capacity of an incontinence sheet to hold a "full pee" varies significantly depending on its absorbency level, which is usually indicated in millilitres. Many heavy-duty or overnight pads are designed to absorb full bladder voids, but it's important to choose a product with an appropriate absorbency rating for the user's needs.
How often should incontinence sheets be changed?
The frequency of changing incontinence sheets depends on the absorbency level of the sheet, the amount of leakage experienced, and the individual's skin health. As a general guideline, pads should be changed before they reach full saturation to prevent leaks and maintain skin hygiene. For optimal skin health, changing soiled sheets immediately is recommended.
What is the disadvantage of using an incontinence sheet?
One disadvantage of using incontinence sheets can be the need for frequent changes, which might be inconvenient and interrupt daily routines. Additionally, prolonged use of sheets without proper hygiene can sometimes lead to skin irritation or breakdown due to moisture and friction. Selecting the correct size and absorbency, along with good skin care, can mitigate these issues.
