How to Compare Cottony Topsheet Options in Sanitary Pad OEM Samples

Cottony topsheet language is common in sanitary pad RFQs, but the finished feel depends on the full structure. Buyers should compare samples with a repeatable checklist.

Compare Surface Feel and Pattern

Review softness, embossing depth, contact area and edge finishing. Note whether the surface direction changes between samples and keep the sample codes visible.

Connect Topsheet to Core Design

Surface review should be paired with acquisition layer, absorbent core and backsheet checks. Ask for the agreed test method and describe observations as sample results, not universal promises.

Document Private Label Decisions

Save the approved material description, artwork version, wrapper format and revision notes in one file. This gives the factory a clear route for the next quotation or pilot order.

Buyer Review Questions

Before approval, ask the supplier to identify the sample code, finished dimensions, topsheet direction, absorbent core position, backsheet, wing adhesive, release paper, individual wrapper and retail pack. Confirm which observations come from physical samples and which are design options. Record the target market, language, barcode status, carton quantity, artwork revision and requested delivery window. For a first order, buyers can request a pilot quantity and a side-by-side comparison against the approved reference. If a material or artwork changes, request a new comparison sample and update the approval file before production. This process keeps communication practical and gives purchasing, quality and marketing teams the same reference. Nafei can discuss sanitary pads, disposable menstrual pants and disposable underwear as separate or combined OEM projects, subject to sample review and market requirements.

RFQ File Checklist

• Product length, width, pack count and size mix
• Topsheet, core, backsheet and adhesive direction
• Wrapper, carton, barcode and language files
• Sample code, revision date and approval owner
• Target channel, quantity and delivery plan

Send these details through the Nafei contact page so the quotation can be based on a clear buyer brief.

Sample Approval Note

Keep a signed sample sheet with the physical reference, pack drawing, revision date and buyer comments. This makes the next quotation easier to compare and helps separate confirmed specifications from optional material or artwork choices.
