Our Tech

Each one of the materials used in our products is carefully developed to provide superior performance, while maintaining sustainability, comfort & durability. It’s a fine balance, but we’ve cracked the code to provide reusable period products that really work, without harming the planet.

Tencel™ is a fibre harvested from sustainably sourced, renewable wood sources. Using a closed loop production process, wood pulp is transformed into soft, silky yarns. The end result is a fabric that is biodegradeable, has high breathability, is less susceptible to odour-causing bacterial growth, and absorbs 50% more than cotton.

This closed-loop process recycles water used and reuses solvents at a recovery rate of more than 99%.

This fibre is certified by:

Oeko-Tex Standard 100

Organic cotton is grown without the use of synthetic insecticides, pesticides, or fertilizers. Eliminating exposure to these chemicals has a significant impact on the earth and the health of farm workers and their families. Organic farming techniques preserve topsoil and prevent water pollution from pesticide run-off.

This fibre is certified by:

• Control Union, under the OCS (Organic Content Standard)
• Oeko-Tex Standard 100

Truetex™ is our proprietary blend of hydrophilic and hydrophobic fibres which create an inherently wicking and absorbent material at the yarn level, that you would not be able to achieve with a singular fibre type.

This intimate blend ensures performance without the need for added chemical finishes. This means that performance does not decrease with multiple washes. Truetex™ is Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Certified, ensuring that no harmful chemicals are used in dyeing and finishing.

Our performance cotton is made from a blend of water-repellent and absorbent yarns which creates a quick-wicking material that draws fluid away from your body. This fabric dries 50% faster than standard cotton and moves fluid more efficiently than synthetic fabrics.

The cotton used in this specially engineered technical material is grown and spun in the USA, then knit and dyed in Montreal, Canada.

Plastic waste is a massive environmental issue. It’s said that every piece of plastic ever manufactured still exists to this day. While plastic does eventually degrade, it ends up breaking down into microparticles that are easily swallowed by wildlife, ending up in our food chain and eventually our own bodies.

Polyester is a super durable, versatile fiber that can create super absorbent fabrics that are perfect for periods - it’s also made from plastic. Luckily, since we have such a big plastic waste problem, we already have all the resources needed to create polyester without making any new plastic.

Our recycled polyester is GRS (Global Recycled Standard) certified, ensuring that only post consumer plastic materials are used, which means that our products are actually helping to remove plastic waste from landfills.

Absorbency is important, but in order for a menstrual product to be effective, it has to be leak proof. We use a PTFE-free thermoplastic polyurethane membrane to ensure that our products will provide the reliability you expect. Our TPU has a 10k/10K rating, which means it can stand up to heavy flow, while also maintaining breathability.
