Drip Collectors

Incontinence management has been a "growth sector" in long-term care for many years - from a $99 million market in 1972(*) to $496 million in 1987 (the latest figures available), and very likely reaching the $1 billion level this year. Accompanying this product sales growth has been growth in consumer awareness and acceptance of incontinence as a "respectable" problem and, with this, a large consumer marketing effort. Meanwhile, product development has resulted in a large range of sizes, designs and absorptive capacities.
