FMR, which specialises in disposable products for hotels and spas, has followed up its Manatee disposable bathing suit with Manatee Spa underwear.

Comprising a disposable string for women and a disposable brief for men, the range is claimed to be the first ever manufactured in 100 per cent cotton. Created as a result of responses from spas which indicated that customers were no longer satisfied with paper strings - neither comfortable nor attractive - both are said to offer an greater degree comfort during treatments and massages.

The one-size Strings are available in black and white, while the one-size Briefs come in black only. Both are delivered in boxes of 250 items.
