Flushable Sustainable Sanitary Pads

We know the problem

UK-based brand Fluus presents its new design in the form of a flushable sanitary pad to push the industry towards a more green solution. The eco pad was flushed away and then torn apart when it travels throughout the sewers. When it reaches any water treatment center, it breaks down to half of the size of an eyelash.

After this process, it can be treated with toilet paper and sewage before it is transformed into clean water and usable fertilizer. In contrast, the conventional pad is made up of 90% plastic, and one entire pack is guessed to be worth four plastic bags. The eco pad is made from three main materials the top and button sheet are from cellulose plant fibers, the middle is made from biodegradable polymers and cellulose plant fibers, and the adhesive is made from tree sap.
