Brands of Plastic Pants for Older Bedwetters and Companies that Sell Them

 There is some slight overlap between this article and my other article “Types and Brands of Diapers to Use for Bed-Wetting and Companies that Sell Them”,however this new article has some additional information.

  One of the points I've stressed in my previous posts is that people have different preferences as far as what type of protection to use to manage their bed-wetting. Some people prefer reusable garments for various reasons whereas others prefer disposables.In addition some people use both styles of garments. There are many different factors that come into play when choosing incontinence products-the type and level of incontinence,whether or not it's convenient to wash reusable garments,etc. Some people prefer pin-on diapers covered with plastic pants,some prefer pull-on cloth garments(which are sometimes referred to as diaper pants,pull-on briefs,or or pull-on diapers),some prefer disposable pull-ups,whereas others prefer tape-on disposable diapers(known as disposable briefs) As I've also mentioned it's good to be open to experimenting with different types and brands of garments in order to determine what works best for you. With many people finding the most suitable type and brand of garment to manage their bed-wetting is a matter of trial and error. In some cases people use more than one brand and style of diaper.

  This brings me to the current topic-plastic pants for bed-wetting. There are a wide variety of brands of plastic pants out there to manage bed-wetting. This article discusses some of the more popular ones. These brands have a good reputation with many people in the incontinence community.

  The first brand I'd like to talk about is Comco. Right of the bat, I'd like to mention that there are two different companies called Comco. Both of them sell and manufacture plastic pants,waterproof sheets,diapers,and other incontinence supplies. I'm bringing this up because I wanted to clear up any confusion people might have when purchasing products from these places. Both companies are based in Minnesota. The original Comco located in North Saint Paul and is run by a guy named Burch Gusterson. They're known as Comco Incorporated.They've been in business for close to 40 years and have been making incontinence garments for 30 years. They have a pull-on plastic pant called the style 230. The price for one is $12.60 and the price for a pack of three is $29.85 These pants are highly regarded by many people with incontinence,particularly those with bed-wetting problems. Their web address is www.comcoincmn.com Their email address is comco@mindspring.com Their phone numbers are (800)328-9658 and (651)779-7313 and their fax number is (651)779-0871 The owner was telling me that the vinyl formulation they use in their plastic pants is different from the one used in the plastic pants manufactured by Comco Manufacturing. Whether or not this means anything in terms of the quality of the pants(such as how durable they are) I can't say. Both pants could be equally well made,the only difference being they're both made of different types of vinyl. According to Burch the vinyl pants made by Comco Manufacturing are nothing like the ones made by Comco, Inc. If your budget permits you might want to try a pair from both companies and judge for yourself.
