The benefits of TRIPLE LAYER LOCK™ technology


Here at Vivactive, we’re at the forefront of emerging technological improvements to incontinence products. Our experts are always working away to source the very best wearable incontinence items, with the newest innovations, to keep you dry and confident. That’s where TRIPLE LAYER LOCK ™ technology comes in. But, what exactly is it? 

Three layers sit inside the pad, working together to create rapid absorption. Due to its versatile nature, we can use TRIPLE LAYER LOCK technology ™ in a range of wearable incontinence products. Our range of large-shaped pads, disposable pants and adult nappies all feature this superb bit of tech. The rapid absorption capability means urine is sucked away, keeping your skin totally dry. By reducing the amount of time your skin is in contact with urine, you’ll find that you’re less likely to experience any irritation or skin problems. 

Let’s take a closer look

So, we’ve talked a bit about what it does overall, but let’s have a closer look at what each component does. As we mentioned, there are three layers that work together to rapidly absorb liquid:

Layer 1:
The first layer is a comfortable top sheet. Once it comes into contact with urine, the liquid is dispersed across the sheet, so that it can be absorbed quickly. Liquids can be absorbed much faster when spread out across the surface area. This stops any urine from pooling in one area, where it might take a long time to absorb. 

Layer 2:
Inside the second layer are highly absorbent fluff fibres that grab onto any urine that they come into contact with. Once the urine has been picked up, it’s then channelled down into the pad’s core. We only use virgin fluff fibres from sustainably managed forests, which are PEFC Certified. We take skin health seriously, which is why they don’t contain any ‘nasties’ like chlorine or extra additives. 

Layer 3:
Once the urine hits the third layer, superabsorbent molecules inside the core absorb and lock it in, turning the urine into a gel. This process happens very quickly. Once the urine is absorbed and turned into a gel, you won’t be experiencing any leaks. During the absorption process, any unpleasant odours are neutralised, so no unwanted smells will be leaking out. Nobody wants to smell like urine, right? 

Now that we know how it all works, let’s take a look at some products that are utilising this fantastic bit of tech! 

Vivactive Shaped Pads Maxi

Vivactive Shaped Pads are designed to offer superior protection, comfort and rapid absorption. These pads absorb liquid 25% quicker than some other leading brands, this is thanks to a unique blend of highly absorbent materials that quickly distribute urine throughout the core. Our unique design not only keeps you dry but also promotes a fresh, comfortable feel.
 
Vivactive Shaped Pads are also up to 30% cheaper than some other disposable pads, making high-quality protection accessible without breaking the bank. If you usually pick up your incontinence pads at a supermarket or pharmacy, you should ditch them. Their pads are usually way overpriced. You can get superior products like our Shaped Pads Maxi for way cheaper online.
 
Each pad comes chocked with leading incontinence tech, not just TRIPLE LAYER LOCK™. These awesome pads are equipped with reinforced hydrophobic leg cuffs, providing twice the protection against leaks whether you’re standing, sitting, or lying down.
 
Physical protection is one thing, but our pads will take care of unwanted odours too. They feature market-leading active odour control technology. The pads rapidly absorb urine, and that’s when the absorbent pearls kick in. They quickly neutralise any nasty smells, so you can live confidently knowing you won’t be smelling of wee. 
 
A nifty wetness indicator on the outside of each pad gives you a convenient way to know when it’s time for a change.
 
Vivactive pads are also kind to your skin, made from a soft, cotton-feel breathable material that is dermatologically tested and latex-free. They’re made using virgin fluff fibres, free from chlorine and other unnecessary additives, so your skin stays healthy and irritation-free.
 
Pair them with Vivactive Fixation Pants for a totally secure and comfortable incontinence experience. These reusable pants provide a snug, close-to-body fit, securing your pad in place for maximum performance and leak protection. 
 

Vivactive Pants Maxi

Vivactive Pants offer amazing protection and comfort, designed to keep you dry, confident, and secure all day long. With our TRIPLE LAYER LOCK™ technology, these pants absorb liquid more than twice as fast as some other leading brands. 
 
Just like our pads, Vivactive Pants Maxi comes with reinforced anti-leak cuffs that provide twice the protection against leaks. So, if you’re standing, sitting, or lying down, you can be confident that we’ve got you covered. They fit closely to the shape of your body, providing reliable coverage and a secure fit that will keep you leak-free in any position.
 
Vivactive pull-ups are also super comfortable. They’re made from a soft, cotton-feel breathable material so you can stay comfy and dry all day. Dermatologically tested and latex-free, they promote airflow to your skin while simultaneously preventing irritation. The enriched top sheet, infused with natural, soothing ingredients, adds an extra layer of protection for your skin. We understand how important skin health can be for people with incontinence, which is why our disposable incontinence pads have been carefully designed to minimise skin irritation. 
 
Vivactive Pants Maxi are easy to use, you simply pull them up just like regular underwear. When it’s time for a change, you simply tear the sides, bundle them up and pop them in the bin. Our pants are made using virgin fluff fibres sourced from sustainably managed forests and certified by PEFC. They’re the ideal choice for people looking for superior protection and comfort.

 

Vivactive Slip Plus

Vivactive Slips offer maximum protection and comfort for people experiencing heavy incontinence. Just like our other flagship wearable product range, they feature our TRIPLE LAYER LOCK™ technology, allowing them to absorb liquid 30% faster than some other brands. This advanced absorption system rapidly draws urine away from your skin, keeping you fresh and dry even during a long wear.
 
Big protection is at the core of our adult nappy range. Vivactive Slips come with our reinforced anti-leak cuffs that provide twice the protection against leaks, so as we’ve said previously, you’ll be fully protected whether you're standing, sitting, or lying down. They offer a snug fit, for a secure and comfortable wear. With our fantastic disposable adult nappies, you can live your best life, fully protected.
 
They don’t just come with superior absorbency, Vivactive Slips also incorporate active odour control technology. Ultra-absorbent pearls within the slip quickly turn liquid into gel, taking care of any unwanted urine smells, for an unrivalled level of discretion.
The convenient wetness indicator on the outside of each slip makes it easy to know when it’s time for a change.
 
We understand that getting nappies on and off can be a faff, which is why they’ve been designed to be put on and taken apart easily. The adjustable tabs allow for a perfect fit every time. These slips are kind to your skin, made from a soft, cotton-feel breathable material that promotes airflow and prevents irritation. Dermatologically tested and latex-free, they’re crafted using virgin fluff fibres, free from chlorine and other unnecessary chemicals.
