Use better. Use less: optimising time and resources for the best possible care

As the demands of care and staff workloads are increasing, managing budgets and resources has become ever more challenging. But value is about more than unit prices. It is about efficiency and maximising your business’s time and resources to offer the best possible care. We think about this bigger picture when approaching everything from product design and innovation to sustainability. Viewing continence care at a longer-term, more human level, where everyone benefits.

It's an approach we have that benefits residents, patients, care staff and business. It's common sense, that also makes financial sense. Use better. Use less.

Use better, use less in action

Better quality means fewer leaks

The unique design and faster absorption of our products means they are less likely to leak.

Fewer leaks means fewer products used

Fewer leaks also means that fewer products are used, which is better for business and the environment.

Fewer products means less laundry

Fewer products means less laundry, which frees up valuable staff time and saves energy costs.

More efficiency means more time to care

Lower costs and greater efficiency help businesses focus on the human side of continence care.
