Unlocking Better Diaper Performance Through Advanced Testing Solutions

BAAR, SWITZERLAND / AGILITYPR.NEWS / April 13, 2026 / SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, is pleased to host a webinar, ‘Enhancing diaper performance: new approaches to absorbent hygiene product testing,’ on April 22, 2026.


As the science of skin absorption and moisture dynamics continues to evolve, opportunities for product differentiation and improved performance are expanding. Leveraging these advancements can enhance product performance and strengthen brand differentiation in increasingly competitive markets with strict regulatory requirements.


In this webinar, key absorbency features, such as surface pH in baby diapers, will be explored in detail. Understanding the mechanisms of skin absorption and perceived wetness enables the development of more accurate, reliable testing methods. Expert presenter Cédric Schoorens will introduce a new scoring system built on a robust, reproducible framework that integrates multiple performance parameters.


Preserving the skin’s natural balance is central to absorbent hygiene product success, and insights into skin barrier integrity will demonstrate how scientific understanding can drive improvements in product design and overall quality.


The webinar is aimed at professionals in the absorbent hygiene product industry, including R&D engineers, product developers and laboratory managers.


Interested parties are encouraged to register now to secure their place.
