Use geometry for geometry
A 22 by 23 inch rectangle has 506 square inches of outer area. This is a mathematical result based on the listed dimensions, not an absorbent-capacity result.
Identify performance evidence
A maker’s comparative claim needs its own test scope and conditions. We have not conducted liquid, odor, leakage, overnight or lifetime tests and do not translate area into those outcomes.
Avoid behavior promises
Product size does not guarantee training success or a change interval. Follow the exact directions and seek appropriate professional advice for individual concerns.
Compare evidence with the same units
An area calculation ends in square inches or square centimeters. A liquid-capacity statement needs volume units and a defined procedure. A time claim needs the circumstances of that observation. Do not bridge those missing measurements with a larger-is-better assumption. This reference deliberately keeps the area tool separate from any absorbency or service-life estimate because the necessary product test evidence has not been established here.
Before you decide
- Keep area units explicit
- Do not convert area into volume
- Separate marketing and our testing
