Moderate protection for your period, sweat or pee.
Surprisingly subtle. Thin and comfortable to wear. And because it is super soft bamboo... no more "crinkle crinkle" when you walk or run! No wearing a pad is truly your secret. But we suspect that you'll love them so much that you'll be telling all your BFF's about this game changing pad.
Absorbency equivalent to 7-8 tampons or 80+ml of fluid
CaroQuilla reusable pads have a unique layer design.
Layer 1 (closest to your skin) - Organic cotton with a quick dry weave.
Layer 2 - Bamboo charcoal for extra freshness. Bamboo charcoal has antimicrobial properties to reduce odor and bacteria.
Layer 3 - Bamboo terry. Bamboo is one of the most absorbent natural fibers around, and as a terry weave, it is perfect for locking in all kinds of leaks.
Layer 4 (the outside of the pad) - Organic cotton with a protective waterproof coating. Feel confident that what leaks out stays away from your clothing.

Scary fact
In North America alone, 20 billion pads, tampons, and applicators are disposed of every year, with specifically around 12 billion menstrual pads deposited into landfills (Shreya, 2016). Menstrual pads are composed primarily of plastic and cellulose; materials that are non biodegradable or take years to degrade, respectively.
