Protective Fitted Underpad Matex MT0282, 140×70 cm, Frotte, Gray

Matex MT0282 is a fitted protective underpad measuring 140×70 cm with a terry (frotte) surface and a waterproof backing. It is designed to protect mattresses, beds and couches from spills, moisture and stains while providing a soft, absorbent top layer. The fitted style features elasticated edges to secure the pad in place and reduce shifting during use.

Advantages

The frotte surface offers gentle, absorbent contact that helps wick moisture away from the skin while the laminated backing prevents liquid penetration to the mattress. Elasticated edges provide a snug, fitted profile that stays in place on standard mattress and cushion depths. The gray colour helps conceal minor stains and fits neutral interior schemes. The construction balances comfort with practical protection for repeated household or care use.

Suitable for

• Home care and elderly care beds
• Medical settings such as clinics and examination couches
• Protection of mattresses and sofas from spills and incontinence
• Use during travel or temporary bedding arrangements

Key specifications

• Dimensions: 140 × 70 cm
• Top material: frotte (terry) for absorption and softness
• Backing: waterproof laminated layer to prevent liquid transfer
• Fit: elasticated edges for a fitted, non-slip profile
• Colour: gray

How to use

Place the fitted underpad over the mattress or cushion with the frotte side facing up and stretch the elasticated edges under the corners or edges to secure it. Ensure the waterproof backing faces the mattress to protect against leaks. For cleaning, follow care instructions on the product label; generally machine wash on a gentle cycle at recommended temperatures and avoid bleach to preserve the laminated backing. Allow the pad to dry thoroughly before reuse.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, replace the underpad if saturation or heavy soiling occurs and inspect regularly for wear to the waterproof layer. Use with breathable sheets to maintain comfort and consider matching pad size to mattress dimensions for full coverage.
