A plastic-free cycle? Naturally!

Did you know that a pack of conventional pads contains the same amount of plastic as four plastic carrier bags? Apart from that, they can also contain pesticides, perfumes and other harmful chemicals – why would you ever want to use that for your most intimate zone? Thankfully, there’s a better choice for both your body and the environment.

Founded in 1989, Natracare is the first brand to offer women a natural alternative to conventional feminine hygiene products. Their products are Totally Chlorine Free (TCF), free from latex and from super absorbent polymers (SAPs), which are all known to cause irritation. It’s not surprising that gynaecologists recommend switching over from traditional to natural menstrual products. With Natracare, the skin in your most sensitive area is free to breathe.

Natracare products are made from natural and sustainable materials, which means that they can safely return to the earth. Their products are biodegradable, compostable and also certified vegan as they aren’t tested on animals. Natracare has nothing to hide: all ingredients are declared on the label. Natracare products work just like other, traditional brands, but, in comparison to plastic products, they won’t be polluting the earth for the next five hundred years.
