Mewalii, a feminine care startup by Simone Westergaard and Frederikke Dahl, has officially launched a range of period pads made with regenerative hemp fibers. This revolutionary product features a 100% hemp-based core, ensuring maximum absorbency, and a top sheet that blends hemp and viscose. The hemp used in Mewalii's pads undergoes a unique mechanical softening process, enhancing its natural softness without harsh chemicals.
"Some of the pads on the market today are made of up to 90% plastic. And those that are not made of plastic are made of cotton (and plastic) which we all know requires huge amounts of resources, as water, pesticides, insecticides, space and transportation. We want to change this with a product made from materials that are less harmful to the environment than those used in conventional sanitary pads today," said Frederikke Dahl, Co-Founder of Mewalii.'
Mewalii's products will be sold online and across Europe, with plans for a global expansion in the near future.
