FAQ
What are DAME tampons made from?
100% natural organic cotton, that's it. No plastic cover. No synthetics. No harsh chemicals.
Our tampons are made to OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 which means they’ve been proven not to contain known harmful chemicals regulated by REACH and tested for per- and poly-fluorinated alkyl compounds (PFAS).
How are DAME tampons better for my body?
The average woman uses 12,000 tampons in her lifetime. That's a tampon inside your vagina for a total of 7.5 years.
Most tampons are made from synthetic fibres, plastics, and treated with harsh chemicals. We think it’s time to be honest about what goes into women’s bodies, so we make our tampons with nothing but organic cotton.
What are DAME tampon wrappers made from?
Our organic cotton tampons are wrapped in cellophane, a material derived from plant cellulose. Unlike man-made plastic polymers, which are largely derived from petroleum, cellophane is natural. Originating from a natural source means it can biodegrade with the help of microorganisms in the soil, just like plants and leaves.
The cellophane used to wrap the tampons is ‘OK Compost’ home compostability certified and will biodegrade within 2-4 months or 1 month if it ends up in freshwater conditions.
What tampon absorbencies does DAME offer?
We offer three absorbencies of tampon:
Regular tampons, which absorb 6-9ml of blood (good for most days of your period)
Super tampons, which absorb 9-12ml of blood (extra absorption for heavier days)
Super plus tampons, which absorb 12-15ml of blood (we've got you covered for the heaviest days)
Make sure to always use a tampon with the minimum absorbency to match your flow.
