700,000 sanitary pads go into bins everyday in ireland. Most women throw away around 11,000 plastic-filled sanitary products, and spend over €1000 for the privilege. Reusable sanitary pads are a bit like reusable wipes - once you've tried them you'll wish you'd swapped earlier. Baba+Boo cloth sanitary pads (often called CSP) are made of with a layer of comfortable, super-soft bamboo charcoal fleece and an absorbent inner layer. There is a hidden waterproof layer that's made from the same breathable PUL which makes our nappies so popular.  The poppers mean your pads stay firmly in place so that slips and leaks are a thing of the past Medium pad is 19x17cm. It's perfect for day time use Care: Pre-wash your pads a couple of times before you use them for the first time to increase their absorbency. Wash them all upto 60 degrees, but lower temperature is better for the environment. Please don't use fabric coditioner as this will make your pads less absorbent. Avoid direct heat - air drying is best. Fabric: These pads are made with an outer layer of bamboo charcoal fleece, which is super-absorbent, reduces smells and is lovely and soft. Inside the pad is an absorbent layer of microfibre and a layer of waterproof PUL.
