Why should I switch to reusable period protection?
Did you know that each of us will use up to 16,000 disposable pads, pantyliners and tampons in our lifetime? Reusable Period production is an extremely cost-effective swap with a one-off cost for products that will last for years, compared to the £45-£88 a year most women spend on disposable period products every single year. Using non-disposable period products significantly lowers the risk of TSS (Toxic Shock Syndrome), and they also contain no pH altering chemicals. Another huge benefit of using reusable period protection is reducing the amount single use products and therefor the impact they have on the environment, an estimated 8 billion pads and tampons end up in the UK sewage system each year!
