Why Hempress Pads Are the Most Sustainable on the Market

Why Hempress Pads Are the Most Sustainable on the Market

When it comes to period care, sustainability matters. Every year, billions of pads and tampons end up in landfills and oceans, contributing to plastic waste and pollution. At Hempress, we’re on a mission to change that. Our pads are made with hemp—the most sustainable fiber for period care—and produced with the highest environmental and ethical standards. Here’s why Hempress pads are the most sustainable option available.

Hemp: The Ultimate Sustainable Fiber

Unlike traditional cotton or synthetic fibers, hemp is a powerhouse of sustainability. Here’s how it stands out:

  • Uses 5x Less Water Than Cotton – Hemp requires significantly less water to grow compared to cotton, conserving this precious resource.

  • Requires 3x Less Land Than Cotton – Hemp’s high yield means it produces more fiber per acre, reducing land use and deforestation.

  • Sequesters 7 Tons of CO₂ Per Acre – Hemp is carbon-negative, meaning it absorbs more carbon dioxide than it emits, making it a climate-friendly crop.

  • Naturally Antimicrobial & Organic – Unlike conventional cotton, which often requires heavy pesticide use, hemp is naturally resistant to pests, eliminating the need for harmful chemicals.

  • Soil-Enriching – Hemp doesn’t deplete soil nutrients; instead, it revitalizes the land by improving soil structure and fertility.

By using hemp in our pads, Hempress is actively reducing water consumption, carbon emissions, and agricultural pollution while promoting regenerative farming practices.

A Supply Chain Built for Sustainability

Not only do we use the most sustainable materials, but we also ensure our production process has the lowest environmental impact possible:

  • EU-Based Production – Our products are manufactured in the European Union, where the highest health and environmental standards are upheld, unlike most period care products made in China.

  • Close-Knit Supply Chain – Our raw materials and manufacturing facilities are located close to each other, significantly reducing carbon emissions from transportation.

  • 100% Renewable Energy-Powered Facility – Our production plant runs entirely on renewable energy, minimizing our carbon footprint.

  • FSC & ISO Certified – Our facility meets rigorous sustainability standards, ensuring ethical sourcing and responsible manufacturing

Completely Natural & Biodegradable

One of the biggest environmental issues with conventional period products is plastic waste. Hempress pads eliminate this problem:

  • Made with Organic Cotton & Hemp Fiber – No synthetic materials, just naturally soft, breathable, and effective fibers.

  • Plant-Based Biodegradable Backsheets – Unlike traditional pads with plastic layers, ours use compostable plant-based materials.

  • FSC Certified & Biodegradable Packaging – From the box to the wrappers, every part of our product is biodegradable and sourced responsibly.

  • Fastest to Biodegrade – In lab testing, Hempress pads broke down faster than other organic competitors, due to our all natural plant-based ingredients.

  • Certified for Sustainability & Ethics – Hempress pads are certified by Vegan, 1% for the Planet, FSC, Oeko-Tex 100, and more, ensuring they meet the highest environmental and ethical standards.
