Product Information

There are a lot of options when it comes to period products, and pads aren’t the only choice. If pads don’t align with your lifestyle and needs, you can try menstrual cups, tampons, period panties, and menstrual discs. Which pads are best for nighttime? More and more women are now turning away from the toxin-laced, plastic-filled pads and tampons that, after potentially contaminating our bodies, go on to do to just the same to the environment. To the conscientious menstruator, it’s now all about reusables.

It wasn’t that long ago that brake pads were made of asbestos. This heat-absorbent material worked well for the stress that the brake pads endured. However, it was also found to be an extremely dangerous carcinogen, leading to cancer when prolonged exposure occurred. Over time, the brake pads wear down and released this dangerous substance onto the tires where it could get into the air. To resolve this problem, manufacturers started creating a safer compound for use on brake pads. NannoPads market their product as having “Nannogenic” technology which is a “proprietary blend of concentrated particles that emit far infrared energy.” On the other hand, there’s nothing wrong with using organic brake pads, especially if you are looking for a lower-cost option. The brakes are meant to provide safe stopping power and won’t break the bank. While we are paying our ‘tampon tax’, a number of companies on our list are likely to be avoiding paying their fair share of corporation tax.

It isn’t hard to see why this material is so popular, especially when looking at the pros of using ceramic brake pads. When it comes time to stop your vehicle, you need a high-quality set of brake pads doing the work. However, there are numerous types of brake pads to choose from, so you need to know which type to buy. Your biggest decision will be choosing between ceramic vs. organic brake pads.

Some period pads make a lot of claims about absorption for heavy flows and overnight protection, but these maxi pads by Always live up to the hype. Another big issue with most traditional, nonorganic pads is that they’re not biodegradable — the average nonorganic pad takes 500 to 800 years to decompose. With 100% organic cotton pads, recyclable boxes and biodegradable wrappers, New Zealand-based OI (Organic Initiative) pads are a great choice for a non-toxic and eco-friendly period. Considerations: These are clinically tested and pH-balanced, but herbal infusions still may not be the best choice for folks with sensitive skin. Cups need to be sterilised monthly, but can then be emptied, rinsed or wiped and reinserted for the rest of your cycle. They are a relatively inexpensive option, as you only need one, and with proper care it will last many years.The 2019 Sustainability report found that people with higher environmental awareness are more likely to choose products with a lower environmental impact. But even 39 per cent of these people didn’t know that non-organic tampons can contain plastic, 64 per cent didn’t know that organic tampons don’t contain plastic and 85 per cent didn’t know that organic menstrual products can be composted. Menstrual cups were probably invented around the same time as tampons in the 1930s, but the production, which started around the beginning of World War II, stalled due to shortages of rubber and sales never took off. Some pads contain added fragrance to counteract the natural odors of period fluids. However, this can be irritating to delicate skin and may disrupt the vaginal pH balance. Unscented pads are a safer option, and Claene pads are specifically made without added fragrances.

Does it contain plastic? Many disposable sanitary products contain plastic which can easily end up in the ocean.However, again it is difficult to find clear, independent and extensive studies on this (which perhaps says something in itself!). Dangerous chemicals Additional Wear and Tear: Copper and ceramic don’t absorb heat the same way that organic brake pads do. Because of this design, the heat that’s generated by the braking system will pass through the pads and affect other components. Users often experience the need for other repairs more frequently. In France, you might hear talk of ‘Strawberry Season’. In Italy ‘The Marquis’ may visit, and in Denmark, there are ‘painters in the stairway’. A menstrual cup is a soft container which is worn internally and sits below the cervix collecting menstrual blood before it leaves the vagina. There are many designs and colours to choose from. Materials include medical-grade silicone, Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) and Fairtrade rubber.
