In today’s market, most plastic-back briefs are being phased out in favour of cloth-like exteriors. Cloth-like backings are often quieter, softer and therefore more discreet. The cloth-like material also allows for breathability for better skin health.

That said, there are still many people who prefer plastic-backed adult diapers. Those who opt for a plastic-backed option usually believe that they offer superior protection against leaks and odours when compared to cloth-like briefs, or they simply prefer the look and/or feel of the plastic backing.

Healthwick proudly carries Canada’s largest selection of adult incontinence products, allowing us to offer our shoppers a wide selection of plastic-backed adult diapers. Here’s a look at 5 of our best selling adult diapers that feature a plastic backing.
