Product update – fixation pants (netty knickers)

March 18, 2019

There has been an update from NHS supply chain regarding product improvement and changes to the basic fixation pants.

The changes to this product range are to improve the elastication of the basic fixation pants range and to align the waist band colouring to the recognised colour coding in the marketplace:

  • The medium size is changing from green to blue
  • The large size is changing from white to brown
  • The x large size is changing from blue to green

The strength of the weave in the fabric has also been increased to provide improved securing of the pants; this enables the pants to provide better support to pads in use, whilst maintaining patient comfort.

This improvement is applied to all sizes of fixation pants without legs.

Materials will be circulated to all areas outlining these changes.
