Abstract

The accelerated development of aging in China has made the elderly pay more and more attention to bath products. This article analyzes the problems in the design of bath products for the elderly in China, and combines the changes in the bathing style brought about by the changes in the physiological and psychological characteristics of the elderly. Based on the concept of barrier-free design, the design principles of bath products for the elderly are proposed from four aspects: safety, applicability, ease of use and development, so as to meet the real demands of the elderly for bath behavior and promote the vigorous development of the bath industry for the elderly.
