About Us

Since 2012, we have developed and manufactured innovative, highly absorbent emergency varnishes in Skien, Norway. Our first product set a new standard for coverage on two-piece birthing beds, and we continue to challenge traditional materials and manufacturing methods.

From idea to innovation

With her background in the maternity ward, Astrid Skreosen saw a concrete problem — the need for a better and more adapted birth certificate. She understood how important practical and safe solutions were for both patients and healthcare professionals. Through close collaboration with professionals and end users, the idea grew into an innovative product. This was the beginning of the development of the next generation High Absorbent Disposable Solutions, tailored for demanding environments such as health care, the defense industry and humanitarian organizations.With us, development always starts with a real need. The goal is simple: to simplify everyday life, increase safety and reduce environmental impact.

From Auxiliary Caregiver to Entrepreneur

Quit his job in frustration

In 2001, I was given a 50 percent night shift position at the hospital in Skien. The work involved a lot of washing birthing rooms, but also the properly cosy tasks such as giving juice to the new parents or weighing and measuring a newborn baby. But one thing I reacted to, the birth bed itself, or most of all, that what was on top of the birthing bed was not suitable for use. Sheets that slipped around during labor and blood and amniotic fluid that flowed beyond the bed and onto the floor.” She decided to make a new sheet. A very thin, super-absorbent sheet that fits the birthing bed, which protects the mattress from moisture and leads to less waste and washing.
