Absorbent bed pads that help manage adult incontinence overnight and during the day, protecting the mattress and keeping the skin dry.
Bed pads for adult incontinence
Adult incontinence bed pads sit on top of the bed to absorb fluid and protect the mattress and bedding. They help keep the sleeping surface dry and make changes quicker and more dignified for the person being cared for.
Bed pads are available as disposable or reusable options and in a range of sizes. They are often used together with a waterproof mattress protector for extra assurance.
Who buys adult incontinence bed pads
These pads suit families caring for an elderly or bedridden relative, home-care buyers, frail care centres, hospices and care homes.
Common uses

Choosing the right option
Consider how much absorbency you need, the pad size relative to the bed, and whether disposable or reusable suits your routine. Bed pads help protect a mattress but are not a replacement for a properly fitted incontinence product where one is needed.
Size guidance
Popular sizes are 60 x 60 cm and 60 x 90 cm for beds; larger pads give more coverage for higher needs. For a full breakdown, see our Linen Saver Size Guide.
