EcoBana

We aim to end period poverty and be the best producers of affordable, biodegradable, and hygienic sanitary solutions. 

Overview

EcoBana Sanitary Pads are made from natural banana fiber, which is highly absorbent and compostable. The top sheets are prepared from 100% organic, non-woven cotton to ensure they are soft and gentle to the skin. They are free from harsh chemicals, bleach, and artificial fragrances, which means a comfortable, rash-free, and healthy period for menstruators. The pads are wrapped in a paper-based, plastic-free material, making them eco-friendly.
