Saathi pads are made from natural, unbleached banana or bamboo fibers which are not treated with any harmful chemicals. The pads are processed in an environmentally safe manner to ensure hygiene and consistent quality but do not contain potential carcinogens like dioxin, chlorine, other bleaching agents, artificial perfumes and gels. The fibers act as a super absorbent core, capable of absorbing menstrual blood flow for a comfortable experience yet are easy on the environment after being discarded.

Banana fiber pads are our flagship product - we are the only patented disposable product in the world made from banana fiber as an absorbent core. Banana fibers are highly absorbent compared to other natural fibers and ideal for use in sanitary pads. Saathi banana fiber pads are available in 2 sizes - XL (for light to medium flow) and Overnight (for heavy flow). Banana fiber pads are fluffy and perfect if you like that reassuring thickness when on your period.

Bamboo fiber pads are ultra-thin and we also sell panty-liners made from a bamboo fiber core. In the bamboo pads also, there’s no plastic at all in any of the layers. Bamboo fiber pads are ideal when you are out to paint the town red (pun absolutely unintended) and want leak-proof, rash-free comfort in an ultra-thin form. Saathi bamboo fiber pads are available in 3 sizes - Regular (for light flow), XL (for light to medium flow) and Overnight (for heavy flow).

Yes, Saathi pads are completely hygienic. They are prepared under tightly controlled conditions and go through rigorous checks and tests before and after packaging. You can rest assured that every Saathi product is absolutely safe to use.

No, Saathi sanitary pads are meant to be used only once. Once a Saathi pad is used, it must be wrapped in either a newspaper/scrap of waste paper and disposed of.

Yes, the wrappers that Saathi pads come in, are made out of plant-based material, treated sustainably to encase the product within.

1. Remove the release paper from the back of the pad/panty liner.

2. Stick the pad firmly onto your underwear.

3. Remove the release paper from the wings.

4. Wrap the wings around both sides of the underwear and press firmly and smoothen.

5. Please change your pad within 4-6 hours, if your flow is heavy then we recommend changing every 2 hours.

6. After use, wrap the pad in waste paper and dispose only into a closed bin. Please do not flush/incinerate the pad or any of its contents.

Conventional sanitary pads use plastic in the bottom layer, for the individual pad wrapper and for the outer packaging and chemical irritants like perfumes and gels in the absorbent layer. Multiple layers contain bleach which irritates our skin especially since it’s the most sensitive part of our body. The accumulates in landfills after disposal.

Saathi pads on the other hand achieve all 3 layers using only biodegradable plant-based materials. The wrappers are a plant-based membrane and the boxes are paper and recycled cardboard. The entire product and packaging take about 6 months to decompose after use.
