Washable reusable male incontinence guards and shields – manufacture for retail and brand partners

World-first washable nonwoven shields and guards designed for the untapped but high-loyalty male market.

Male incontinence is a hidden crisis, with one in five men over 65 affected, yet only a third seeking help due to the stigma surrounding existing disposable products. For category managers, this represents a significant white space opportunity to capture a sizeable, high-loyalty cohort that currently avoids the adult care aisle.

Confitex Technology’s Male incontinence guards provide a discreet, sporty alternative that feels like regular underwear, removing the psychological barrier to purchase and everyday use. Unlike bulky single-use shields that are shelf-hungry and low-margin, our reusable nonwoven technology requires less shelf and warehousing space, significantly improving your category yield per square metre.

Our automated manufacturing delivers the scale and competitive COGS required to protect your private-label margins while providing an affordable retail price point.

With medical-grade certifications (ISO 13485, FDA MDSAP and CE for class 1 medical devices) and a low-waste profile, these guards align perfectly with your corporate sustainability and compliance obligations.

By positioning them as lifestyle protection, you unlock genuinely new revenue streams without cannibalising your existing disposable volume.
