Reusable Panty Liner - Single
Take care of your health and the planet by replacing your traditional disposable sanitary pads with Bambaw reusable panty liners. Experience optimal comfort thanks to their three layers of protection.
What is a reusable panty liner?
|
A reusable sanitary napkin works just like a standard sanitary pad, except that instead of having to be thrown away after one use, it can be washed and reused. Indeed, traditional sanitary pads are often made of synthetic materials such as plastic and synthetic polymers and are therefore single use. Bambaw reusable panty liners, on the other hand, are made of 3 materials: bamboo charcoal, microfiber and PUL fabric. Together, these materials provide the panty liner with absorbency, protection, elasticity and odour control, making it an ideal menstrual protection and also washing machine safe. |

Benefits of reusable panty liners
Bambaw reusable panty liners all have wings to fit and clip to your underwear easily. There are three different types of sanitary pads, each of which will protect you best according to your menstrual flow:
- Light flow (1 layer of microfiber)
- Medium flow (2 layers of microfiber)
- Heavy flow (3 layers of microfiber)
In addition to that, you can also buy a pouch to carry your reusable cloth pads. It is black, waterproof and has two compartments to store both clean and used sanitary pads.
• Reusable panty liners are super absorbent
Bambaw's reusable panty liners have high absorption qualities thanks to the PUL and microfibre layers, two permeable materials. When combined, the fabrics ensure complete protection from undesirable leakage, regardless of your menstrual flow type.
• A discreet and odourless solution
Together with their incredible absorption qualities, the reusable panty liners remain thin, smooth and amazingly discreet. This sanitary napkin also includes a layer of bamboo charcoal to ensure odour control to get you through your periods with complete peace of mind.
• Discover a whole new comfort
As sanitary pads are often worn for several hours, they may sometimes feel uncomfortable, especially during an active day with lots of moving around. Fortunately, Bambaw's reusable pad remains soft and smooth thanks to its PUL and microfibre layer, thus less likely to cause irritation or discomfort.
• External feminine hygiene protections are safer
|
Internal sanitary protection such as tampons, menstrual cups or menstrual sponges can be dangerous. Indeed, when blood stagnates in the vagina, it becomes a favourable environment for the development of S. aureus bacteria to grow, which in turn can produce TSST-1 toxins. These toxins may be harmful as they can attack organs such as the liver, kidneys or lungs and lead to serious illness. This is known as toxic shock syndrome. |
|
• Non-toxic materials
In addition to causing toxic shock syndrome, tampons and traditional sanitary pads are filled with dangerous chemicals that give their white colour, perfume and such. Several investigations have also detected, among these chemicals, dioxins classified as carcinogens by the World Health Organisation and phthalates, known to be endocrine disruptors. These observations are pretty concerning, given that the vaginal wall is very absorbent.
Luckily, there are solutions, such as reusable pads made from natural products, that do not put your health at risk.
• Less expensive
It is estimated that a woman spends about 1,730 euros on sanitary pads in her lifetime, which is an astronomical sum.
Reusable panty liners are much less expensive because they are designed to be used for a long time. Unlike traditional single-use sanitary napkins or tampons, Bambaw's reusable pads' price quickly writes off the initial purchase value.
• More practical than disposable ones
With the reusable panty liners at home, you will no longer need to run off to the store every month to buy a new pack of single-use menstrual pads.
Moreover, thanks to the small carrying pouch available separately, you can easily keep a sanitary pad with you for any unexpected leak or unpredicted loss.
What you get:
- 1x Reusable panty liner (light, medium or heavy flow)
- 1x In-depth digital user manual
- 1x Cotton pouch (not automatically included in the single reusable panty liner package)

An essential product that creates a lot of waste
Before an adult female reaches menopause, around the age of 50, she will generate roughly 96 kilos of sanitary waste over her lifetime. Unfortunately, due to their single-use nature and low recyclability, most of these menstrual products will end up in the sewer system and end their cycle in the oceans.
The reusable options
Although traditional sanitary pads are harmful to the environment, they are an essential hygiene product in a woman's life. Fortunately, there is a range of more environmentally friendly alternatives such as reusable panty liners, menstrual cups, menstrual discs or even menstrual sponges.

Are reusable panty liners safe?
Of all the sanitary protection options, reusable cloth pads are one of the safest alternatives. Unlike industrial pads, tampons or internal protections, such as the menstrual cup, the reusable sanitary pads do not contain chemicals and do not allow blood to stagnate inside the body, cancelling the risk of a toxic shock syndrome.
How long do reusable panty liners last?
Reusable cloth pads can last up to 5 years or more if properly cared for. Your sanitary pad comes with a digital user manual with tips on how to care for your pad and extend its life.
How to wash reusable panty liners?
You can wash your reusable sanitary pad as you would wash your regular clothes, either by hand or in the machine. However, continuous use of synthetic fabric can affect its absorbency.
Are reusable sanitary pads hygienic?
This reusable panty liner is made of microfiber and bamboo charcoal, which are both anti-bacterial and breathable materials. In addition, with regular washing and good care, reusable pads are very hygienic.
Do reusable menstrual pads leak?
The reusable panty liners are put together with PUL and microfibre layers, two highly permeable materials guaranteeing maximum protection against leakage
Do reusable sanitary pads stay in place?
Reusable sanitary napkins are designed to stay in place at all times, thanks to the snaps under their wings. Moreover, the wings are slightly elastic to ensure that the pad does not move, even when exercising.
How often should you wash reusable pads?
You should change your reusable panty liner as often as you change your traditional sanitary pad (i.e. every 2 to 6 hours). Once you've used your menstrual pad, you don't necessarily have to put it in the washing machine right away. You can rinse it in cold water, let it dry and reuse it. Then, wash your reusable pads in the washing machine at the end of your period.
