Hartmann Dignity Plus Underpads 30 x 36
Hartmann Dignity® Plus Disposable Underpads, 30" x 36"
SAP-Enhanced Protection in a Full-Coverage 30" x 36" Pad
The Hartmann Dignity Plus underpad — previously sold as Ultrashield Plus — is a high-performance disposable pad for moderate to heavy surface protection. At 30 by 36 inches, it covers the full width of a standard twin bed and drapes generously over wheelchairs and recliners. Inside, an advanced core blends cellulose fluff with superabsorbent polymer (SAP), delivering higher fluid capacity and better odor control than standard fluff-only pads: fluid is pulled in fast, locked into the SAP, and held there with pH-neutralizing odor management.
The soft polypropylene nonwoven topsheet stays gentle against the body while letting fluid pass through quickly into the core, so the surface feels dry sooner. Underneath, the strong peach waterproof backsheet prevents strike-through to the mattress or chair — and the peach color follows the industry convention for high-absorbency tiers, so caregivers can identify the right pad at a glance in a mixed supply closet. Latex-free construction accommodates users with natural rubber latex sensitivities.
Key Features
- Enhanced Polymer Core: Cellulose fluff infused with superabsorbent polymer (SAP) provides higher fluid capacity and better odor control than fluff-only pads.
- Moisture-Proof Peach Barrier: The strong, peach waterproof backsheet prevents strike-through and signals the high-absorbency tier at a glance.
- Soft Nonwoven Topsheet: The polypropylene topsheet stays gentle against the body and passes fluid quickly into the absorbent core.
- Versatile Sizing: The 30" x 36" dimensions suit standard twin beds, wheelchairs, and recliners.
- Latex-Free: Not made with natural rubber latex, suitable for users with latex sensitivities.
Equipment Specialist Insight: If you knew this pad as Ultrashield Plus, this is the same product under Hartmann's Dignity branding — the part number 333607 carried over, which is the reliable way to confirm you're reordering the right pad. The fluff-plus-SAP core is the meaningful upgrade over economy fluff pads: SAP holds fluid under pressure, so the pad stays effective when the person sits or lies directly on a saturated area instead of releasing moisture back to the surface.

Q: Is this the same product as Ultrashield Plus?
A: Yes — Hartmann rebranded the Ultrashield Plus underpad under its Dignity line. The part number 333607 is unchanged, so existing reorders map directly to this product.
Q: Which side faces up?
A: The soft white nonwoven side faces up, toward the person. The peach waterproof side always faces down, against the mattress, wheelchair, or recliner surface.
Q: What does the SAP core do that a regular fluff pad doesn't?
A: Superabsorbent polymer chemically binds fluid rather than just soaking it up, so the pad holds more per square inch, controls odor better, and resists releasing moisture back to the surface under body weight — the main weakness of fluff-only pads.
