Natural materials and an organic cotton cover
Plastic-free, totally chlorine-free, perfume-free

Natracare Pads are made of natural materials and contain
an organic cotton cover, so that your delicate skin touches only
material that is free of toxins, dioxins, and pesticides.
These pads are so incredibly soft and comfortable!
Because there is no plastic in them, Natracare pads are able to breathe
better, providing safer odor-control and cleanliness.

From the Natracare website:
"Women today are conscious of the need to restrict their contact with
synthetic materials and unnecessary chemicals and additives. They are
becoming more aware that most of the widely available sanitary pads
sold today, contain a blend of chlorine-bleached pulp, polypropylene,
polyacrylates and plastic.
For each monthly cycle, it makes sense to choose a pad
that is made from natural materials. Many gynaecologists have advised
women with sensitive skin to use natracare pads to reduce their contact
with chlorine bleached materials, and also products containing
synthetics, latex and super absorbents made from petrochemicals. Every
year, billions of plastic laden pads are disposed of, and generally
they end up in landfill sites to sit unaltered for hundreds of years.
Every year, in Britain alone, we would have to dig a hole three hundred
feet deep and three hundred feet wide to bury the sanitary pads that
are thrown away.
Natracare chemical free pads are high quality products
made from only pure and natural materials that are made from plant
cellulose. They are not chlorine bleached and are free of rayon,
plastics and other similar synthetic materials that have a negative
impact on our environment. They are comfortable and reliable and
available in different absorbencies and styles."
