Fuller elastic adhesive becomes an ideal material for disposable underwear
Stress urinary incontinence is the most common form among women, according to the National Continuation Association (NAC). The condition is reported to affect approximately 15 million adult women in the United States. The International Continence Society (ICS) states that the average age of women with this condition is around 47-48 years, and it usually results from childbirth.
The role of urinary incontinence products and their good experience and performance have been recognized by most people. Therefore, the development of adhesives and its application in hygiene products cannot be underestimated.
Conforma is suitable for making disposable underwear for all ages. It’s more comfortable, not tight, and fits all shapes and sizes. Let adults and juvenile guardians have more choices.
What’s more, Conforma can be used to create comfortable fabrics that are an ideal replacement for bonded materials or elastic panels, mimicking the feel of cotton underwear.
Additionally, Conforma is a great fit for manufacturers. By setting aside traditional constraints, it opens up possibilities for new designs and all stretchable products. By extending and opening, sizing is simplified and the flow of the production line is streamlined. Additionally, it saves costs by eliminating downtime in the production of stretchable materials that relies on elastic strands.
Nathan Weaver, vice chairman of Fuller, commented: Understanding market trends and current and future needs of customers guides us to develop high-performance adhesives. Conforma adhesives are an example of Fuller’s innovation in the hygiene market. Fibers derived from adhesives give disposables soft, stretchable, comfortable properties. “
