Domtar Expands in Personal Care with Purchase of Butterfly Health

Domtar (Montreal, Que., Canada) has purchased the assets of Butterfly Health (Los Gatos, Calif., USA).

"This product provides a unique solution to a problem that exists for roughly one out of ten people. It represents a complementary addition to our portfolio of brands and technologies," said Domtar Personal Care President Mike Fagan. 

BUTTERFLY® body liners offer discreet, secure protection for accidental bowel leakage. Domtar Personal Care designs, manufactures and sells a wide range of incontinence solutions for adults, children, and infants. Brands include ATTENDS®, ATTENDS DISCREET®, and COMFEES®.

 

The BUTTERFLY absorbent core is based on Domtar’s air-laid materials produced at its Jesup, Ga., facility.

BUTTERFLY body liners were introduced in 2014 and are currently sold in North America through several major retail channels. Domtar said it will leverage its global footprint to expand commercialization to additional healthcare markets, with a focus on Europe.
