Abstract: The invention relates to a multilayer washable material which comprises at least one layer of a textile material, the layers being joined to one another using an adhesive composition, which is characterized in that in the interfacial region between each pair of layers bearing against one another there is an adhesive composition in the form of a pattern, and no finishing of the multilayer material, as such and/or of a smaller part obtained therefrom, is carried out. One example of a multilayer washable material of this type is a washable underpad comprising a moisture-permeable top layer material (2); a moisture-impermeable bottom layer material (3) and a moisture-absorption element (1) positioned between them, the top layer material (2), the bottom layer material (3) and the moisture-absorption element (1) being joined to one another. The adhesive composition used is preferably a moisture-curing reactive polyurethane hotmelt material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a washable pad comprising a moisture-absorption element positioned between a moisture-permeable top-layer material and a moisture-impermeable bottom-layer material, wherein said top-layer material, bottom-layer material and the moisture-absorption element are at least locally joined to one another to form a cohesive unit, wherein the moisture-impermeable bottom-layer material, on the side which faces towards the moisture-absorption element, is coated over at least part of its surface with a layer of bonding material which bonds together the moisture-absorption element and the bottom-layer material. In particular a moisture-permeable top-layer material and a moisture-impermeable bottom-layer material are joined together at certain points via perforations in the moisture-absorption body. The invention also relates to a method for forming the abovementioned washable pad and to ways of finishing the border of washable pad.
