Natracare was launched in the UK in 1989 with a full range, including the world’s first certified organic cotton tampons and totally chlorine-free sanitary pads and panty liners.
Natracare organic cotton tampons and organic and natural pads were developed as a direct response to health and environmental concerns about dioxin pollution caused by chlorine bleaching, the extensive use of pesticide spraying on conventionally grown cotton, and the use of rayon and other synthetics in feminine hygiene.
Natracare’s multiple award winning range of organic cotton tampons, sanitary pads, panty liners, nursing pads, baby and intimate wipes, are unique in being made from only certified organic and natural, sustainable and renewable materials that are biodegradable and compostable. Traditional sanitary pads and liners are made from over 90% plastic which is not biodegradable so will remain for decades in our environment.
