How It Works?
What are Octipa incontinence briefs used for?
These are absorbent, reusable undergarments specially designed to contain urine leakage and replace disposable panty liners and towels.
How do Octipa panties work?
Each panty offers protection against urine leakage for up to 12 hours without leaking or feeling damp.
To make them as comfortable as they are effective, we have paid particular attention to the composition of their absorbent parts.
They are generally made up of 3 layers of protection:
1. DRAINING
Located inside the pants, this layer is designed to wick moisture away quickly, keeping skin dry and reducing odour.
2. ABSORBENT
Located in the middle, this layer is designed to absorb bladder weakness using highly absorbent materials such as microfibre or bamboo fibre.
3. WATERPROOF
This layer is located on the outside of the panty and is designed to prevent leaks from spreading outside the panty using waterproof materials such as polyurethane or TPU.
How do I wash Octipa panties?
Properly cared for, Octipa knickers can last up to 5 years, so follow these steps to wash them properly:
1. Rinse with cold water: Before washing your Octipa panties, rinse them thoroughly with cold water to remove any excess liquid.
2. Hand wash or machine wash in a wash bag: Use a mild detergent and a cold cycle or 30° maximum.
3. Air-dry: Avoid tumble-drying your Octipa panties. It's better to let them air dry.
What to avoid
- Do not use a tumble dryer- Avoid ironing
- Do not use fabric softeners
- Do not use Marseille soap
- Do not wash at a temperature exceeding 30°
Panties for every flow!
Each person affected by incontinence has their own type of leakage. That's why we offer several models of underpants specially adapted to moderate, high and very high flows.
