Frequently Asked Questions

Who are your adult clothing protectors for?

Our adult clothing protectors are designed for anybody who needs extra support and protection during mealtimes. They’re particularly beneficial in care facilities and rest homes across New Zealand, where staff need durable, easy-care solutions that can withstand daily use and frequent washing.

They’re also great for family caregivers looking after elderly relatives at home, individuals managing conditions that affect motor control or swallowing, and people recovering from surgery or illness.

What are the typical features of these protectors?

Our mealtime clothes protectors are designed with both comfort and practicality in mind. They simplify daily routines while providing reliable, cost-effective protection. When choosing clothing protectors for your care setting, look for:

Waterproof backing to prevent liquids from seeping through to clothing
Soft, absorbent front layer to manage spills
Adjustable fastenings to ensure a secure personalised fit
Generous coverage to protect the chest and upper body
Durable construction to maintain protection after repeated washing

Do your mealtime protectors cover the lap as well?

Absolutely—we offer a range of mealtime protectors for adults that cover the chest and lap area. These full-coverage designs are great in care settings where spills can happen anywhere during meals, providing complete protection from collar to lap.

The extended coverage helps avoid the need for multiple protectors and offers consistent protection without constant adjustment. If you’re not sure whether lap coverage is necessary, consider the individual’s eating habits and mobility—our team’s always happy to help if you need advice on the level of protection.
