Because is a brand that offers incontinence products for women. The available details for their products are:
-
Because Premium Maximum Plus Pull Up Underwear for Women: This product is designed for heavy day or nighttime urinary incontinence. It has a built-in absorbent liner and can absorb up to 4 cups of liquid. It comes in a beige color and is available in XX-Large size.
-
Because Premium Incontinence Boosters: These boosters are designed to add extra absorbency to adult diapers. They can add up to 4 cups of leak-free absorbency to protective underwear. They are super absorbent, soft, and have a contoured fit. They are unisex and come in a pack of 20 boosters. They are eligible for return, refund, or replacement within 30 days of receipt.
The available information on the materials or ingredients used in Because products is limited. However, a study on adult urinary incontinence products mentions that the topsheet of such products is typically a polyethylene/polypropylene non-woven material designed to quickly absorb liquid. Another study on absorbent hygiene products, including incontinence products, mentions that they contribute to improved quality of life by attributes of dryness, hygiene, leakage control, comfort, and skin health. However, the study also notes that the somewhat humid environment under the diaper/absorbent incontinence product makes the skin more susceptible to injury from exposure to irritants, such as urine and feces, and by friction from the materials of the product. Additionally, a recent report found detectable levels of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) in some sanitary and incontinence pads, although it is not clear how these chemicals end up in the products. Pampers, a brand that offers baby diapers, mentions that they do not add certain ingredients to their products, such as parabens, latex, and chlorine bleaching.
