Affordable Alternatives to TENA Pants in NZ: Same Protection, Smarter Price
Share
You’re not paying for the product — you’re paying for the brand
TENA dominates pharmacy shelves in New Zealand, but their prices have crept up for years. Most customers assume high cost equals better quality, yet what you’re really paying for is advertising, middlemen, and shiny boxes.
The truth? The technology inside those premium pants — absorbent polymers, breathable layers, odor-locking films — is now standard across the global incontinence market.
CarePoint sources those same innovations directly from overseas manufacturers and sells them without the markup.
So, instead of spending extra for packaging and TV ads, you get equal performance at a practical price.
Parallel imported — the secret to affordable quality
CarePoint’s pull-up pants are parallel imported, meaning we buy directly from reputable overseas producers, skipping the layers of domestic distributors and wholesalers.
This approach cuts unnecessary costs and keeps prices low for you while maintaining strict product quality.
Parallel import doesn’t mean “unofficial” or “second-hand.” It simply means smarter sourcing. Every product still meets the same hygiene and manufacturing standards as major retail brands.
What you lose: inflated retail prices.
What you gain: dependable comfort and protection.
Comparing CarePoint vs TENA pants
| Feature | CarePoint Pull-Up Pants | TENA Pants |
|---|---|---|
| Absorbency | Equal or higher — rated for day & overnight use | Strong, but similar capacity |
| Comfort | Soft cotton-feel layers, breathable waistband | Comparable stretch fabric |
| Price | Around 30–40 % less per pack | Highest retail markup in NZ |
| Discretion | Shipment arrives in plain unmarked packaging, no branding | Branded boxes, visible labeling |
| Availability | Always online, ships from Auckland | Stock varies by chemist |
Result: the difference isn’t quality — it’s cost efficiency.
Why people switch — and stay switched
Most CarePoint customers start by testing one pack, expecting less. What they find is performance identical to big-name brands, minus the inflated cost.
They keep coming back because:
- The fit and absorbency are genuinely reliable.
- The delivery is fast and private — 1–3 days anywhere in NZ.
- The price stays consistent, without pharmacy “specials” that disappear next week.
It’s not about downgrading; it’s about finally getting value for money.
Comfort and protection you can trust
CarePoint’s adult pull-ups use the same multi-layer absorbent core technology found in international premium brands.
They feature:
- Soft, breathable outer fabric that reduces heat build-up.
- Elastic waist and leg cuffs that prevent leaks while allowing free movement.
- Odor-control layers that lock in moisture and neutralise smells fast.
Everything is designed for daily comfort and long wear — from commuting to overnight rest.
Delivered discreetly, every time
Buying incontinence products shouldn’t mean awkward checkouts or visible boxes. CarePoint ships all orders in plain, unbranded cartons with no product names on labels.
Whether you’re in Auckland, Wellington, or Dunedin, you’ll receive a simple, clean parcel — nothing more, nothing less.
Every order is packed locally and dispatched within one business day, so you can reorder easily and stay stocked without the chemist run.
Better for your wallet, better for your routine
Let’s do the maths. If you use two pull-ups a day, pharmacy prices can easily hit $80–$100 a month.
Switching to CarePoint brings that closer to $50–$60 a month — savings you’ll actually notice.
Over a year, that’s several hundred dollars kept in your pocket without a single drop in protection.
That’s the real definition of smart care — reliable, private, and affordable.
Make the switch today
Thousands of New Zealanders already trust CarePoint for affordable, parallel-imported incontinence protection.
If you’re tired of paying brand prices for generic comfort, it’s time to change how you buy — not what you wear.
