Details

A high-integrity menstrual pad engineered with 100% certified organic cotton in intimate contact, a clean hybrid absorbent core for certified 8-hour leakproof security, and individual paper wrappers with zero plastic waste.

  • 100% Certified Organic Cotton Topsheet: Mass-market pads use perforated polyethylene plastic mesh (often marketed as dry-weave) that creates sweat, friction, and contact dermatitis. Our topsheet is 30 gsm 100% GOTS certified organic cotton non-woven: breathable, unbleached, and free from chlorine, synthetic fibres, or chemical finishes.
  • Honest Acquisition & Distribution Layer (ADL): Pure cotton absorbs in a localized spot and pools. Directly beneath the cotton sits a 45 gsm polypropylene through-air bonded non-woven that distributes fluid longitudinally along the core. It sits safely beneath the cotton, never touches mucous membranes, and is declared openly rather than concealed.
  • High-Performance Clean Hybrid Core: A pad made purely of cotton wet-collapses under body pressure and leaks. We pair Totally Chlorine-Free (TCF) softwood fluff pulp with cross-linked Sodium Polyacrylate Superabsorbent Polymer (SAP). Fluid is wicked instantly and locked permanently into a viscoelastic hydrogel, guaranteeing >=55g to >=95g gravimetric absorbency surpassing IS 5405:2019 standards.
  • Totally Chlorine-Free (TCF) Pulp: Bleached exclusively with oxygen, ozone, and hydrogen peroxide. Completely eliminates elemental chlorine and chlorine dioxide, guaranteeing zero polychlorinated dioxins or furans (<1 pg/g WHO-TEQ detection limit).
  • Breathable Moisture Barrier: Backed by an 18 gsm micro-embossed polyethylene film with microscopic vapour-permeable pores (>2,500 g/m2/24h) that shield undergarments while allowing skin heat and moisture to escape.
  • Individual Kraft Paper Disposal Wrapper: India discards over 12 billion pads annually, predominantly wrapped in non-recyclable plastic. Under Rule 17(3) of the Solid Waste Management Rules 2016, manufacturers must provide a disposal wrapper. We wrap each pad in a 100% recyclable virgin kraft paper pouch (40 gsm) with an adhesive seal tab, eliminating single-use plastic wrappers entirely.
  • Mandatory ISI Mark Certification: External pads are regulated under the Ministry of Textiles Medical Textiles (Quality Control) Order, 2023 as mandatory BIS Scheme-I ISI Mark certified products (IS 5405:2019).

Materials & construction (layer by layer, in anatomical order, with percentages)
Full composition (across sizes)
Organic Cotton (9.5%–10.7%), Polypropylene Non-Woven (3.7%–3.9%), Softwood Fluff Pulp (47.2%–48.7%), Sodium Polyacrylate SAP (18.0%–19.6%), Tissue Paper (4.7%–5.1%), Polyethylene Film (6.8%–7.3%), Adhesives (7.1%–7.9%)
Organic Cotton Topsheet (Intimate contact)
30 gsm 100% GOTS certified organic cotton spunlace non-woven (0.95g / 1.15g / 1.40g). Soft, hypoallergenic intimate surface; zero chlorine, dioxins, or synthetics.
Polypropylene ADL (Acquisition & distribution layer)
45 gsm through-air bonded PP non-woven (0.35g / 0.45g / 0.55g). Sits below cotton; transfers fluid along core to prevent pooling. Honestly declared.
Core Tissue Wrap (Upper and lower wrap)
18 gsm TCF hydrophilic tissue wrap (0.45g / 0.55g / 0.70g). Encloses absorbent core to prevent fiber and particle migration during movement.
Softwood Fluff Pulp (Bulk absorbent matrix)
Totally Chlorine-Free (TCF) hydrogen-peroxide bleached softwood cellulose (4.20g / 5.60g / 7.20g). Rapid capillary wicking and bulk volume.
Sodium Polyacrylate SAP (Hydrogel fluid lock)
Cross-linked sodium polyacrylate superabsorbent granules (1.60g / 2.20g / 2.90g). Locks fluid into non-reversible hydrogel under body pressure.
Breathable PE Backsheet (Moisture barrier)
18 gsm micro-embossed polyethylene film (0.65g / 0.80g / 1.00g). Liquid-impermeable barrier with micro-pores allowing water vapour to escape.
Construction & Positioning Adhesives
Medical-grade thermoplastic hot-melt adhesives (0.70g / 0.88g / 1.05g total). Low-VOC, phthalate-free, non-sensitizing garment grip.
What is left out, and what took its place
Synthetic plastic topsheet (dry-weave mesh)
Replaced entirely by 100% GOTS certified organic cotton. Mass brands use perforated PE plastic that creates sweat, friction, and intimate rash.
Elemental chlorine and chlorine dioxide
Replaced by 100% Totally Chlorine-Free (TCF) oxygen/peroxide bleaching. Eliminates polychlorinated dioxins and furans (<1 pg/g WHO-TEQ).
Undisclosed synthetic transfer layers
Replaced by full disclosure. We print our 45 gsm PP distribution layer openly on the pack and storefront rather than hiding it.
Fragrances, masking scents, and deodorants
Zero added perfume, herbal scent, or odor-masking chemicals. Scent is 0.00% across all components to eliminate contact dermatitis.
Phthalates and toxic hot-melts
Replaced by medical-grade, hydrogenated hydrocarbon hot-melt adhesives, certified free of ortho-phthalates and volatile solvents.
Single-use plastic wrapper
Replaced by 100% recyclable virgin kraft paper wrappers (40 gsm) with individual paper seal tabs for clean disposal.
