Postbiotics are bioactive microbial metabolites recognized for their potential to support skin health and balance the microbiota. In this study, nonwoven fabrics and adult diaper prototypes, with and without postbiotic incorporation, were evaluated for their effects on skin microbiota, epidermal integrity, and cytotoxicity. In vitro assays using reconstructed human epidermis and keratinocyte cell lines demonstrated that postbiotic-containing samples maintained high tissue and cell viability. Microbiota diversity analyses confirmed that postbiotic formulations maintained a favorable ratio of Staphylococcus epidermidis to Staphylococcus aureus. Collectively, these findings indicate that ATA-coded postbiotic-embedded nonwoven and adult diaper prototypes are skin microbiota-friendly, safe for epidermal contact, and stable in their bioactive compound content. These results underscore the potential of postbiotics as functional agents in personal hygiene products to promote skin health.
