Product Information

Material: Organic cotton upper core, FSC-registered pulp lower core, siliconised paper backing strip, packaging is compostable and postal box is made from FSC-certified paper and is recyclable. They also keep things fresh and dry down there thanks to their breathable, pH-neutral, and highly absorbent construction. You can also change and upgrade your pads if you’re not happy with the braking performance, with different pads better suited to different conditions. Why we chose it: Veeda organic pads leave it all behind — no synthetics, pesticides, dioxins, chlorine, dyes, or fragrances.

However, even those companies not using plastic applicators are still using plastic wrappers and plastic in the string and inside the tampon.

However, your vagina's mucous membrane can absorb toxins and chemicals — especially over a prolonged period of time. It’s useful to have a waterproof bag to transport used pads home for washing while you’re out and about. Let’s get one unfortunate fact out of the way to begin: natural pads don’t break down much faster in a landfill. Hearst UK is the trading name of the National Magazine Company Ltd, 30 Panton Street, Leicester Square, London, SW1Y 4AJ. It’s also increasingly common to see disc brake pads with built-in cooling fins, popularised by Shimano with its Ice-Tech pads and said to improve braking performance by using airflow to quickly move heat away from the pad surface.

Since fully organic pads don’t have any plastics or fragrance, the issues above shouldn’t be an issue. Considering how frequently we use them and how close they get to us, it is surprisingly hard to access clear information about what goes into our sanitary products. Why we chose it: Cora promises “cashmere-soft” certified organic cotton that keeps you dry and far away from chlorine, fragrances, artificial dyes, deodorants, toxic adhesives, acetone, rayon, polyester, and phthalates.Phthalates, bisphenols, parabens, and triclocarban in feminine hygiene products from the United States and their implications for human exposure. Since all of that plastic ends up in a landfill, using organic pads can be more eco-friendly but only if you use compostable pads—but only if you compost them.

Organic disc brake pads are generally made up of Kevlar, rubber and silica, bound together with resin.

Material: Organic cotton, corn starch (certified compostable), synthetic resin (latex free), paper with silicone coating, cardboard (FSC certified) with 30% recycled content. All pads share the same purpose, but there can be a lot of differences between two similar-looking products. These organic pads are treated to deliver the same protection as synthetic pads without any of the harmful chemicals.
