Pampers was introduced in the year 1961. In those days a man named Vic Mills who used to work for Procter and Gamble created them. The very first product he manufactured used on his own granddaughter. Procter and Gamble tested this as-yet unnamed disposable diaper. Different names were given for this like Tads, Solos and Larks, came up with the Pampers brand. The Pampers entered into the test market in Peoria, Illinois. Inspite of the first test being unsuccessful it led to an improved Pampers product at a lower cost that finally replaced cloth diapers as the preferred way to diaper babies.
In the beginning the diapers were made with bulky and heavy products that were composed of fluff pulp with a rayon topsheet, polyethylene backsheet. In the year 1966, the Pampers launched a new C-fold design and by 1969 started a "third size". By this time Pampers began to be recognized as a national brand in the United States.
In the year 1970 Procter and Gamble replaced the pin on design with tapes. In the year 1971 different variations of Pampers Toddler Size, Extra Absorbent Daytime, Improved Newborn and Premature Infant Size were also introduced. During the 1980s Pampers introduced cushion quilted lining and value packs. In the year 1984 Pampers altered all its diapers into an hourglass shape. In 1986 the first thin diapers were made with absorbent gelling material, elastic leg gathers tabs that could be refastened and a softer liner was released.
Since its inception Pampers paid huge amounts for getting advertised. The print ads of Pampers often appear in magazines that are especially ones geared to parenting.
