What Makes Our Period Products Sustainable?

 

The word ‘sustainability’ is often thrown around by a lot of brands, all without much of an explanation as to what makes them sustainable. 

We believe in being open about what our products are made of, and how they’re made in order to highlight how we mean it when we say we’re sustainable…

Organic Cotton Only,
Please!

It was very important to us that we work with a manufacturer that sources only 100% organic cotton in order to provide products that are both better for the environment and better for your body.

Organic cotton is grown without the use of pesticides, insecticides or fertilisers, and herbicides meaning less pollution. Throughout the growth process less water is used, crop rotation is exercised and seeds are not treated artificially.

Keeping It Above
Board

When choosing a manufacturer, we not only wanted to work with those who could provide 100% organic cotton products but someone who could also guarantee the rights of their workers in the whole manufacturing process from cultivation to the production chain, from the harvesting of the cotton, to the finalised end product.
All of our products are made in Spain, in a facility that uses hydroelectric power. This ensures that we can keep our carbon footprint as low as possible.

Our Products & Packaging Are...

Plastic Free

We pride ourselves on being plastic-free, from our products to the packaging they come in.

Recyclable & compostable.

The cardboard applicators are recyclable & compostable. The pad wrappers are also recyclable but as they’re bioplastic they will also biodegrade.

Better for the planet

Your period product can be disposed of in your compost & it will break down into natural materials within months.

100% recyclable boxes

Our cardboard boxes are manufactured in Europe & are FSC certified, so please recycle once you’re finished with them!
