Only Applicator-Free Organic Cotton Tampons
No barrel. Paper on the outside.
These digital tampons use Green Umbrella's CottonLock, which Only says limits loose fibers on the way in and out. Cotton is GOTS organic. The ingredient line is a core, a veil, a cord, and paper you can compost. Rayon and chlorine bleach are both left out.
Three flows: Regular, Super, Super Plus. Price shown is $8.59. Shoppers who still want a tube are pointed at a reusable applicator sold on its own.
Spain is where Green Umbrella builds the range. Ontario is the shipping desk. The cotton's country is unstated.
