Why Reusable Period Products Are Better for the Planet
The Environmental Cost of Disposable Products
Every year, millions of disposable tampons, pads, and applicators end up in landfills or oceans. Many contain plastic, chemicals, and non-biodegradable materials that can take hundreds of years to break down.
- In fact, a single person using disposables may throw away up to 10,000 products in a lifetime.
- Plastic applicators and wrappers contribute to microplastics in waterways.
How Reusable Products Help
The umi menstrual disc is designed to last for years with proper care. By switching to a reusable disc, you:
- Reduce waste: One disc replaces thousands of disposables.
- Lower your environmental footprint: Less plastic, less chemical pollution, fewer resources used.
- Save money over time: Reusable = long-term cost-effective.
Why the umi Disc Is a Better Choice
- Single-size, durable design → simple and stress-free to use.
- Up to 12 hours wear → fewer product changes, less waste.
- Eco-friendly storage and care → clean with mild soap and store in your breathable umi pouch.
Make the Switch
Switching to a reusable disc is a simple step toward a more sustainable period. Small choices add up: fewer disposables in landfills, less plastic in oceans, and a cleaner planet for everyone.
