Can We Help Reduce Rewet?

We develop absorbent hygiene products around defined performance requirements, from existing-product improvement to new product development, sample testing and production verification.

Existing Product Improvement

Analyze your current diaper, pull-up or pad specification and identify possible causes of high rewet before structure optimization.

Absorbent Core Development

Optimize SAP, fluff pulp, core distribution, acquisition and liquid transfer according to the required performance and product positioning.

Performance Verification

Compare absorption and rewet performance under defined product specifications and test conditions before moving toward mass production.

Absorbent core structure for low rewet diaper development

Why Does a Hygiene Product Have High Rewet?

A product may absorb liquid successfully but still show high rewet when liquid retention, acquisition, distribution or core structure is not properly balanced.

01. Insufficient Liquid Retention Absorbed liquid may move back toward the surface when the core cannot retain it effectively.
02. Poor SAP Distribution Uneven SAP distribution can create areas with different absorption and liquid-retention performance.
03. Slow Liquid Acquisition If liquid remains near the topsheet for too long, surface dryness becomes more difficult to maintain.
04. Uneven Liquid Distribution Poor liquid transfer can concentrate fluid in one area of the absorbent core.
05. Excessive Compression Product compression during use can affect liquid retention and increase the risk of rewet.
06. Core Structure Limitations Core thickness, density, shape and material configuration all affect how liquid is retained after absorption.

Define Your Rewet Target

Rewet performance should be developed around a defined product specification and test method rather than a single universal number.

Product Requirement Development Reference
Product Type Adult diaper, baby diaper, pull-up, pad or underpad
Size Customer-defined
Absorbency Target Customer-defined
Rewet Target Customer-defined
Test Method Internal or customer-specified method
Applied Pressure According to the defined test method
Test Time According to the defined test method
Core Structure Customized according to product requirements
Target Cost Customer-defined
Important: Rewet results should always be evaluated under a defined test method, product specification and test condition. Performance values can vary according to materials, construction, product size and testing conditions.

How We Develop Lower Rewet Performance

Lower rewet is developed by improving the way liquid enters, moves through and remains inside the absorbent structure.

01

Improve Liquid Acquisition

Improve how quickly liquid passes through the topsheet and reaches the absorbent structure.

02

Optimize Liquid Distribution

Help distribute liquid more evenly instead of concentrating fluid in one part of the core.

03

Adjust SAP & Fluff Pulp

Develop the absorbent material configuration around the required absorption and liquid-retention performance.

04

Optimize Core Structure

Review core density, distribution, thickness, shape and positioning as part of the complete product design.

05

Verify Performance

Compare samples under defined test conditions and optimize the specification before production approval.

Low Rewet Starts With the Complete Product Structure

Rewet is rarely controlled by one material alone. The absorbent core, acquisition layer, topsheet, liquid distribution and overall product construction work together to determine surface dryness.

Material: SAP · Fluff Pulp · Nonwoven
Absorbent Core: Ratio · Density · Distribution
Acquisition & Distribution: Liquid Transfer
Top Sheet: Liquid Penetration
Product Structure: Thickness · Compression · Core Position
Final Performance: Absorption · Rewet · Leakage · Comfort

Low rewet is usually the result of coordinated product design, not a single material choice.

Balance Low Rewet With Absorbency, Thickness & Cost

A lower rewet target must be developed together with absorbency, product thickness, comfort, application requirements and target cost.

Simply Adding More Material

Increasing absorbent material is not always the most efficient way to reduce rewet. It can also affect thickness, flexibility, comfort, production efficiency and product cost.

Optimizing the Complete Structure

We can evaluate material configuration, liquid acquisition, distribution, core structure and product construction together to develop performance around the target specification.

Development objective: match rewet performance, absorbency, comfort, product thickness and target cost to your market positioning.

Low Rewet Development for Different Hygiene Products

Rewet requirements vary according to product structure, wear scenario, user movement and target performance.

Adult Diapers

Develop lower rewet for long-wear comfort, overnight protection, pressure-related use and skin-dryness requirements.

Baby Diapers

Focus on fast liquid acquisition, repeated wetting, soft topsheet performance and a drier surface after absorption.

Pull-Up Pants

Balance lower rewet with movement, fit, repeated liquid loading and thinner product construction.

Incontinence Pads & Underpads

Develop rapid liquid acquisition, distribution, surface dryness and target absorbency for different care applications.

Adult diaper absorbency and rewet development case

Real Product Development: Improving Rewet Performance

One adult diaper development project involved improving overnight absorbency and surface dryness while maintaining product comfort and leakage protection.

Original Requirement Approx. 500 ml product with overnight leakage, core clumping and rewet concerns.
Core Development Imported fluff pulp and optimized SAP configuration were used to improve absorbent performance.
Structure Development Core structure, 3D leakage guards, 360° waistband and breathable composite backsheet were developed together.
Verified Result Approx. 15-second absorption and approx. 0.5 g rewet were achieved under the specified development conditions.
Results depend on product specification, material configuration, testing method and customer requirements. Case results should not be interpreted as a universal performance guarantee.

Low Rewet Solution FAQ

What is rewet in a diaper?

Rewet refers to liquid returning toward the product surface after absorption, especially when pressure is applied. It is commonly used to evaluate how well an absorbent product retains liquid away from the topsheet.

What causes high rewet in diapers?

High rewet can be related to liquid acquisition, liquid distribution, SAP and fluff pulp configuration, core structure, compression and liquid retention. The actual cause should be evaluated against the product specification and test method.

How can you reduce rewet in adult diapers?

Adult diaper rewet can be addressed by reviewing liquid acquisition, absorbent core configuration, SAP and fluff pulp distribution, core structure and product construction together.

Can you develop diapers with lower rewet and high absorbency?

Yes. The development can consider rewet, absorbency, absorption speed, product thickness, comfort and target cost together rather than treating rewet as an isolated specification.

Can you improve rewet performance of our existing diaper?

Existing products can be evaluated based on the current sample, specification, test results and target performance. Development may involve material configuration, core structure and liquid-transfer optimization.

What materials affect diaper rewet performance?

SAP, fluff pulp, nonwoven materials and other absorbent-core components can influence liquid acquisition, retention and rewet performance.

How do you test rewet performance?

Rewet should be measured using a defined test method, including the specified product, liquid loading, pressure, test time and measurement conditions. Samples can then be compared against the agreed target.

Can you develop low rewet products according to our target specification?

Yes. OEM and ODM development can be based on your product type, size, absorbency requirement, rewet target, existing sample or specification, target cost and intended application.
