Traditional plastic-backed Bluey and Pinky underpads have been essential in healthcare but are often criticized for causing discomfort and their environmental impact. These high-turnover consumables are used extensively, with estimates showing around 75 million Blueys disposed of annually in Australia alone, contributing significantly to landfill waste.
Like plastic underpads, the Greeny is designed to trap and contain liquids, protecting bedding, clothing, and surfaces from contamination. It also provides an absorbent surface for clinical procedures.
However, Greenys offer additional benefits. They meet AS 4736 compostability standards, with a cornstarch-based bioplastic backing and a 5-ply paper fluff pulp top layer from responsibly managed forests. Greenys are 60% more absorbent and 14 times more breathable than 5-ply Blueys. They also offer 63% better sweat management than Pinkys, reducing the risk of skin breakdown and related injuries.
These features allow Greenys to remain in place longer, reducing underpad turnover while offering a safer, more comfortable experience with less environmental impact.
