The LYCRA Company announced the launch of LYCRA ADAPTIV fiber for nonwovens in a May 13, 2026 release ahead of INDEX26 in Geneva. Adult incontinence products are among the stated applications, alongside baby diapers and feminine care.
The company describes a stretch-fiber formulation intended to accommodate movement and a wider range of fit. These claims draw on its proprietary research, rather than a published comparison of finished adult-care products.
The release also reports an INDEX award nomination. This is not an award result or product certification, and the separate renewable-fiber display does not establish the biobased content of ADAPTIV.
