What happens when pads are landfilled?
Attends incontinence products can be directly disposed of in landfills. A major part of an average pad is accounted for by the biologically degradable elements (pulp, pulp fleece). All other materials will remain essentially immobile and inert. Nevertheless landfill means that the energy content of the pads is not recovered. The superabsorbent in the products is compatible with all relevant types of municipal waste treatment such as waste to energy and landfill.
