Elliot Absorbent Products UniDry absorbency pads  

Elliott Absorbent Products has developed a thin high-absorbent range of sealed edge pads for fresh meat and fish.

Designed to replace airlaid and SAF pads, the UniDry range uses a proprietary Infinity Core that provides good absorbency of blood and water of between 7.5 and 26 L per m².

The product is claimed to have a low carbon footprint and uses fewer materials than traditional pads. According to the company, tests reveal that it uses half the cellulose and plastic required to make traditional pads and due to its thin construction is easier to transport and store.

According to absorbency tests that compared it to a traditional pad, UniDry was 45% more absorbent when used with a typical 600 g lean beef joint, 90.5% with a 1.3 kg piece of topside and 278% more effective with a 135 g venison steak.

Available in both pads and reels, the product comes in white as standard with other colours upon request. It has full EU migration conformance and is manufactured in the UK.
