Say goodbye to plastic sanitary pads!

Not only do we use a lot of sanitary pads a year, but they also contain a lot of plastic. Sanitary pads contain 90% of plastic!

It is shocking to learn that sanitary pads contain an enormous amount of plastic, but we are still using them, and there is little awareness.

The polyethylene plastic within the pads can be harmful to the environment, and in fact is a dangerous pollutant.

Every day plastic surrounds us, and this might be our toothbrushes, makeup or earphones. However, plastic can also harm wildlife, and can cause sea animals to choke.

Eco-friendly sanitary pads, not only helps us save £100s a year on sanitary items, but you are also doing your part to help our planet, and converting to alternative products!

We are all in this together, and we can all do our part. The reusable pads are £3.99-£6.99 each, depending on the pattern you purchase!

The sanitary pads available in shops are near enough the same price, but they cannot be re-used again compared to these pads!
