We partnered with SGS, the world's leading testing and certification company, to ensure our products meet the highest safety standards. Originally tested to infant safety standards, our adult products now exceed typical adult safety requirements.
SGS is the global leader in testing, inspection and certification. Founded in 1878, SGS is recognized as the global benchmark for sustainability, quality and integrity. With over 89,000 employees worldwide, SGS operates a network of over 2,650 offices and laboratories around the world.
We originally requested SGS to conduct comprehensive safety testing to infant safety standards. Now applied to our adult products, this means they exceed typical adult safety requirements. Here's what our rigorous testing covers:
Testing for harmful chemicals, heavy metals, and toxic substances
Ensuring all fibers and materials are safe for sensitive skin contact
Verifying dyes and colors won't run or cause skin irritation
Ensuring optimal pH levels for skin health and comfort
Verified absorption rates and capacity testing for all products
Wash cycle testing to ensure long-lasting performance
Testing seam strength and fabric integrity under normal use
Ensuring proper fit and comfort standards across all sizes
Our SGS safety certification provides the confidence that comes with independent, third-party verification of our product safety and quality standards.
Independent testing confirms our products are safe for the most sensitive skin types
SGS testing meets international safety and quality standards worldwide
Third-party verification provides confidence in every product you purchase
Independent SGS testing confirms what you suspected - natural materials perform better and contain fewer chemicals than typical disposable products. Here's the comparison:
| Test Parameter | Our Products (SGS Tested) | Typical Disposables |
|---|---|---|
| Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) | Not Detected | Often Present |
| Phthalates | Not Detected | Commonly Used |
| Heavy Metals (Lead, Mercury, Cadmium) | Below Detection Limits | Variable Results |
| Formaldehyde | Not Detected | May Be Present |
| Chlorine & Bleach Residues | None Used | Standard Processing |
| pH Balance | Skin-Optimal Range | Often Acidic |
Note: Results based on SGS laboratory testing of our products. Disposable product information compiled from published industry studies and manufacturer disclosures. Individual products may vary.

Our SGS testing confirms what natural material advocates have long believed - you don't need harsh chemicals to achieve superior performance. Our products prove that natural materials can outperform synthetic alternatives.
Most consumers don't realize how many chemicals are in disposable products, or how labeling regulations allow manufacturers to hide ingredient lists. Here's what the research reveals:
In disposable absorbent products according to independent studies*
Manufacturers not required to list specific fragrance chemicals
SGS tested materials fully disclosed with transparency
Disposable products remain in direct skin contact for hours, creating prolonged exposure to any chemicals present in materials.
Body warmth and moisture can increase the potential for chemical migration from synthetic materials to skin surface.
Products contact some of the body's most sensitive and absorbent skin areas, where chemical sensitivity may be heightened.
Material Science: Chemical migration from synthetic materials to skin is a recognized phenomenon in material science, particularly under conditions of warmth, moisture, and extended contact time.
Hemp and bamboo fibers processed mechanically with minimal chemical treatment, reducing the potential for chemical residues.
No synthetic fragrances means no hidden chemical cocktails - just the natural, clean scent of organic materials.
Independent testing confirms our materials contain no detected volatile compounds or chemical additives.
Transparency Promise: Every material in our products is fully disclosed. No hidden ingredients, no synthetic fragrances, no chemical surprises.
Current regulations allow manufacturers to hide dozens of chemicals under the simple word "fragrance"
Trade secret protection allows manufacturers to avoid listing specific fragrance ingredients, even when products contact sensitive skin for hours.
What you see on our label is exactly what you get - no hidden ingredients, no chemical surprises, just pure natural materials.
Consumer awareness is driving demand for transparency in personal care products. You deserve to know exactly what materials contact your skin for hours each day.
Sources & Disclaimers: Chemical count data based on published independent studies of disposable absorbent products. Information about fragrance labeling based on current regulatory frameworks. Skin contact and chemical migration information reflects general material science principles. Our SGS testing results are specific to our products only.

Here's how we worked with SGS to achieve our safety certifications and what it means for our ongoing quality assurance.
We originally requested SGS to conduct safety testing to infant safety standards. This means our adult products exceed typical adult-only safety requirements, providing the highest possible level of safety assurance.
SGS conducted extensive testing covering chemical safety, material analysis, durability, and performance standards. Every component and material was thoroughly evaluated.
Upon successful completion of all tests, SGS provided comprehensive certification documentation verifying our products meet international safety standards.
We maintain our certification standards through continued quality control processes and regular monitoring to ensure every product meets our SGS-verified safety standards.
We're happy to provide more information about our SGS safety certifications and what they mean for our product quality and safety standards.
