Disposable toilet seat pads are typically made from a combination of soft, absorbent materials such as nonwoven fabric, cellulose, and sometimes a layer of polyethylene or other water-resistant material. The nonwoven fabric provides durability and comfort, while the cellulose material helps with absorbency. The polyethylene layer is usually added to create a waterproof barrier, ensuring that moisture and bacteria do not pass through the pad to the toilet seat.

As for sensitive skin, many disposable toilet seat pads are designed with skin-friendly materials to minimize irritation. Nonwoven fabrics are generally hypoallergenic and gentle on the skin, but it’s always important to check product specifications for any additional chemical treatments or fragrances that might cause irritation. If you have particularly sensitive skin, it’s best to choose pads labeled as fragrance-free and hypoallergenic, as these products are specifically designed to minimize the risk of skin reactions.
