Are Viv pads better for the Earth?
Viv pads and liners are 100% plastic-free and made of 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, compared to traditional products, which take 500-800 years. The wrapper is certified home compostable and made from corn starch!
What are the wrappers made of?
The wrapper is certified home compostable and made from corn starch!
Do they work for heavy flows?
Yes! For extra length go for the double winged night pads but our pads are 4x more absorbent than traditional pads!
How do I dispose of Viv pads?
Viv pad and liner wrappers can be thrown in your compost bin if you have one! Used pads, liners, tampons, and tampon applicators should be thrown in the trash (because they have menstrual blood on them, we do not recommend composting or recycling them). Viv pads and liners are designed to break down in just 150 days in a traditional landfill!
