The underwear are made from organic cotton GOTS certified - Global certification for organic cotton and is made in fair trade.
The fabric is soft and absorbs sweat.

We advise to use after first wash in order to check the absorption level compared to your blood flow to help you understand howb frequently you should change the underwear.
PUL Layer
A liquid proof, “breathing” layer that does not come in contact with the body, it is sewed between the layers of the cotton fabric, what absorbs is the cotton, the PUL prevents liquids from reaching the underwear and clothes.
The PUL is not a natural or organic material.
Compound: 75% polyester, 25% polyurethane.
The PUL I am using is 100% PFAS and PFOA free, ecofriendly and body friendly and does not cause skin irritation or skin sensitivity due to many exposures, produced without any dangerous chemicals.
PUL Fabric is a fabric that has lamination on it, it is a thin, flexible plastic that connects on its own, you might know it from reusable diapers (the outer part) or the sheet that is put for children in order to prevent wetting the mattress.
What is special about the PUL I am using?
It is anti-bacterial, contains silver uni, prevents unpleasant scents, does not contain dangerous chemicals, does not cause skin
irritation or skin sensitivity due to reusing.
Meets the standards of the US consumer safety committee.
Before the first use, wash in the washing machine on a regular plan (not shortened) otherwise the fabric wont absorb.
Lasts up to 300 washes, eco-friendly, soft, breathing and flexible.
After first use:
Wash off blood by letting it soak in cold water for a few hours or rinsing in cold water.
You can wash off the blood, hand to dry on a line, and put all underwear together in the washing machine.
To extend product life, it is recommended to wash in the washing machine on low temperature, without bleaching products, and we recommend to use a eco-friendly detergent. Do not use fabric softner.
Dry on a line and not a drying machine.
*Washing in cold water is very important as cold water washes off blood.
It is also recommended to use only after first wash in order to test the absorption level compared to your blood flow and then you will learn how frequently you should change.
You shouldn’t stay with the same underwear for more than 8 hours (the recommendation of 8 hours is true to every absorbing product)
What to do when you’re not home:
If you’re leaving the house for more than 8 hours, you should take another pair of underwear with you. The used underwear can be put in a sealed hygiene bag or a zipper bag that is also sealed.
