Stay-dry

Pampers keep baby bottoms drier because they have a special stay-dry lining next to baby's skin. Moisture goes through it and is trapped in the absorbent layers below.

Disposable bed and chair pads are also available to protect furniture. A range of reusable products is also available. These usually have an absorbent layer sandwiched between a stay-dry layer and a waterproof layer to prevent leaking.

Microfleece works well for reusable liners, suede cloth polyesters for a stay-dry layer on inserts, polyurethane laminate for water resistant covers and shells, microfiber inserts absorb quickly and dry quick, viscose/rayon made from bamboo absorbs a lot of liquid.
