I was told that cartene is a trade mark, and the bedsheet should be made of high density polyethylene (HDPE).

卡特尼隔水纸床垫 or 防污纸床垫

卡特尼 = transliteration for the trade mark
隔水 = waterproof
防污 = anti-contamination
塑料 = plastic
纸 = paper
床垫 = bedsheet

So-called in-house service could be the recovering care given to patients in their home. The bedsheet made of high density polyethylene is most likely a kind of one time use bedsheet for the purpose of preventing contamination. Made of high density polyethylene, the most important feature of this sheet should be waterproof. In order to be distinct from the regular bedsheet, I would suggest “隔水塑料床垫”.

And in some case, this kind of bedsheet is composed of two layers, one is for waterproofing, the other is for water absorbing. The water absorbing layer is made of paper-like textual. If that is the case, It’s better to add a word “纸” to make it “隔水塑料纸床垫” or “防污塑料纸床垫”.

Pls refer to the websites

I found some websites that might tell you something about cartene. However, they are mostly in European language, such as italian and french. You can try using the translation function on the browser to translate the websites for you. I tried that, even though the english was not perfect but might be able to shed some light. Hope they help. Good luck.
