What is the core difference between HygieSoft™ and standard plastic backsheets?
The core difference lies in vapor permeability and tactile comfort. Standard plastic backsheets act as complete, impenetrable barriers that trap heat and moisture, creating a “greenhouse effect” against the skin. In contrast, HygieSoft™ is a highly engineered composite laminate designed to breathe, keeping the wearer dry, cool, and comfortable without sacrificing leak protection.
