Viv pads and liners are 100% plastic free and made from bamboo and corn fibers. These source materials reduce agro waste, using less land, water, and CO2 to produce than cotton and organic cotton products. Viv pads & liners break down in just 150 days (even the wrapper!) compared to traditional products, which take 500-800 years
The wrapper can be thrown in your compost bin if you have one! Used products should be thrown in the trash (because they have menstrual blood on them, we do not recommend composting them). They are designed to break down in 150 days in a traditional landfill environment!
Viv tampons are made with a 100% organic cotton core. The applicator is derived from the sugar cane plant. This means that it is plant-derived and made from renewable resources, instead of petroleum-derived like most plastic applicators.
Because tampons are inserted into the body for application and will have menstrual blood & bodily fluids on them, dispose of the tampon and the applicator in the trash.
Regular: Light to normal flow
Super: Normal to heavy flow
Not sure about your flow? (What is a "heavy flow" anyway??) Try a combo box so you can test out some of each!
