What Happens to Your Pad After You're Done With It?

Here's a fact most pad brands don't want you to think about: a conventional sanitary pad takes 500 to 800 years to break down in a landfill. Every pad you've ever used still exists somewhere on this planet.

That's because conventional pads are made primarily of plastic — the absorbent core, the leak-proof backing, even the soft top layer. They don't biodegrade. They fragment into microplastics that enter the soil, waterways, and food chain.

Edynn Organic pads are certified fully biodegradable. Here's what that means in practice:

• Every component — the cotton top layer, the absorbent core, and the backing — is made from natural, plant-based materials
• No plastic, no synthetic polymers, no materials that persist in the environment
• Our biodegradability is independently certified, not a marketing claim
• Our pads break down naturally, returning to the earth without leaving toxic residue behind

The average woman uses approximately 11,000 disposable pads in her lifetime. Choosing Edynn Organic means those 11,000 pads won't still be sitting in a landfill when your great-grandchildren are born.

Clean for your body. Clean for the planet. That's the standard we hold ourselves to — and the one we think every period care brand should meet.
