The Societal & Environmental Problem

85% of tampons contain Monstanto's 'cancer causing' glyphosate pesticide in it. Since cotton is an extremely pesticide heavy crop, it rapidly destroying our vital top soils and polluting our water systems.
Discarded menstrual products are the fifth most common plastic waste product found in the ocean.
Inorganic cotton is extremely water intensive, requiring 6 pints of water to grow just one small bud.

Abi & Anushka are the two founders of Plastfree that wanted to make manufacturers more responsible for their frivolous use of plastic in their products.

Although they were pleased to find a few products in the market that was organic & biodegradable, they were was not satisfied with the quality, performance & packaging. Many still came with wrappers, core, back sheet all made of plastic and did not absorb well enough causing leaks and stains.

They also wanted to make a product which was not only plastic free, chemical free, dioxin free and fragrance free in all layers, but also wanted it to be fit for its purpose & more.

Two years of research and development materialised the concept of Plastfree, the highest absorbing biodegradable sanitary pad range available.
