Absorb Plus Chair Pad

Reusable Chair Protection for Everyday Use

The Absorb Plus Chair Pad is a reusable chair-protection pad measuring 60 x 45 cm, with absorbency of up to 540 ml. It is designed to sit directly on a chair or other suitable seating surface, helping protect upholstery while providing a soft quilted layer for the user.

The top surface is made from 100% polyester, while the waterproof polyurethane (PU) backing helps prevent moisture reaching the chair beneath. A non-slip backing helps the pad stay in place during normal use, and rounded corners help reduce wear through repeated washing.

A Practical Reusable Alternative

Unlike disposable chair protectors, the Absorb Plus Chair Pad is designed to be washed, dried and reused. That makes it useful for regular home use, supported living environments or anywhere a washable chair-protection layer is preferred.

The 60 x 45 cm size gives useful coverage without making the pad overly bulky, and the choice of Blue, Burgundy and Beige makes it easier to match the pad to different chairs or room settings.

Chair Pad or Bed Pad?

The Chair Pad is smaller and shaped for seating, with 540 ml absorbency. The Absorb Plus bed pads measure 85 x 90 cm and offer 800 ml, 1500 ml or 2500 ml capacity. Choose the Chair Pad for armchairs, dining chairs, wheelchairs or similar suitable seating surfaces, and a Bed Pad when protecting a larger sleeping surface.
