Domtar Corporation (NYSE: UFS) (TSX: UFS) today announced that
its Attends Supersorb® Complete Premium Underpad has received
Innovative Technology designation from Vizient, Inc. the largest
member-driven health care performance improvement company in the
country.
Vizient’s Innovative Technology designation was based on reviews
of Attends Supersorb® Complete Premium Underpad by hospital experts
who attended the company’s 2016 Innovative Technology Exchange. The
event provided medical technology suppliers the opportunity to
demonstrate their product and gain direct feedback from 1300 onsite
clinical experts and health care providers on the impact their
products may have on improving clinical care, safety, or benefits
to an organization’s care and business model.
The Attends Supersorb® Complete Premium Underpad was developed
with Dry-Lock® RapidWick™, a system of innovative layers that work
together to quickly pull moisture into the core and wick it away
from the skin. This allows patients to feel drier, quicker.
“We are honored to receive this designation and are encouraged
that our advanced absorbent core technologies are having a positive
impact on people’s lives,” said Chris Lee, Brand Manager, in
Domtar's Personal Care division. “All our products and technologies
are developed with the goal of improving the overall health and
well-being of patients and providing caregivers the confidence that
their patients are dry and comfortable. The Attends Supersorb®
Complete Premium Underpad embodies our tagline that ‘Attends is
First in Confidence.’”
“We are pleased to recognize Domtar’s Attends Supersorb®
Complete Premium Underpad with an Innovative Technology
designation,” said Debbie Archer, director of procurement and
leader of Vizient’s Innovative Technology program. “The designation
indicates the product was seen by representatives of Vizient member
hospitals who attended our Innovative Technology Exchange as
offering incremental benefits over other products currently in the
market.”
