Breaking free from plastic: Biodegradable period products for sustainable cycles.

Plastic piles up.

Did you know that the average menstruator uses approximately 11,000-15,000 tampons or pads in their lifetime? That’s a lot of waste to sit around in landfills for generations to come! But fear not, because there’s a super simple, effective solution: biodegradable period products.

Turning the tide on plastic waste, one period at a time.

Traditional single-use pads and tampons are typically made with harsh chemicals and plastic material, which means they take centuries to break down - in fact, a single pad or tampon can take up to 500-800 years to decompose! Yes, even those that say ‘organic cotton’ or ‘cotton’ still have plastic components in them, which prevents them from fully decomposing.

Just imagine the environmental impact of hundreds of millions of plastic period waste piling up in landfills or floating in our oceans - leaving a legacy of plastic in our environment.

Enter: plastic-free periods! 

Thankfully, there’s a plastic-free option that’s kinder to the planet and kinder to your body as well - without compromising on performance. (Win-win-win!)
