How often should the underwear be changed?
Change it when it becomes wet, uncomfortable, heavily soiled or approaches its practical absorbency limit.
Should it be rinsed before washing?
Follow the manufacturer's care instructions. Some garments can go directly into a normal wash cycle, while others may benefit from rinsing first.
What washing temperature should be used?
Use the temperature stated on the care label. Excessive heat can damage elastic, waterproof barriers or absorbent fibres.
Can fabric conditioner be used?
Only if the care instructions allow it. Some softeners can coat absorbent fibres and reduce performance.
Can it be tumble dried?
Follow the care label. High heat may damage some reusable continence garments.
Why must it be fully dry before reuse?
A damp garment is uncomfortable, makes it harder to judge new leakage and can contribute to skin irritation.
When should the garment be replaced?
Consider replacement if the fit has stretched, seams are damaged, odour remains after correct washing or absorbency has clearly reduced.
Important: The product's own care label takes priority because wash temperatures and drying methods can differ between garments.
