Time a conventional pad takes to break down.
Sustainability
A journey, not a badge.
Plenty of brands talk about sustainability. Fewer talk about what they actually do, and even fewer talk about what they don't do yet. We'd rather be honest than impressive.
What sustainability looks like in real terms.
Concrete numbers, not vague claims. This is what choosing organic cotton actually means.
Organic cotton fibres return to the soil naturally.
No detectable PFAS, total organic fluorine below the lab limit.
Outer packaging made from recyclable paperboard.
Honesty over theatre.
Three lists. What we do today. What we're working on. What we won't do.
Concrete steps already in place
- Organic cotton topsheet.Grown without synthetic pesticides or chemical fertilizers, and biodegradable in months rather than centuries.
- No PFAS or SVHCs.Independently screened: no detectable PFAS, and free from REACH substances of very high concern.
- Recyclable outer packaging.Our cartons are made from fully recyclable paperboard.
- FDA-registered, CE-marked.Made by a manufacturer registered with the US FDA and declared in conformity with the EU Medical Device Regulation.
- Lab-tested transparency.We publish what's in our pads and what isn't, with independent test results to back it up.
Honest about what comes next
- Subscription delivery.Fewer, larger shipments. Less packaging. A discount for you. Coming soon.
- Plastic-reduction roadmap.Some pad components still rely on small amounts of plastic. We're actively researching alternatives that don't compromise performance.
- Local-region sourcing.Long-term, we want more of our supply chain rooted in the region.
- Carbon footprint baseline.We're working on measuring our footprint properly before making claims about it.
- Refill and reuse formats.We're exploring formats that reduce single-use packaging without compromising hygiene or convenience.
Lines we don't cross
- No greenwashing.We don't use vague words like "eco-friendly" or "natural" without specifics behind them.
- No carbon-offset theatre.Until we can measure our footprint accurately, we won't buy our way to a "carbon neutral" badge.
- No fake certifications.Every certification we display is real, current, and independently verifiable.
- No animal testing.Ever. Period care never needs it.
- No hidden ingredients.Every material in our pads is disclosed. If we can't tell you what something is, it doesn't go in.
