Campaigning for healthier periods

Natracare was created as a campaign to shake up the period protection industry and finally provide women with a viable eco-friendly alternative.

The world’s first organic cotton tampon

Meet Susie, our founder and owner. She’s an eco-warrior, a pioneer, and developed the world’s first brand of organic & natural period products in 1989.

“In the 1980s I learnt about the dangers of dioxin pollution and the damaging impact of plastics. I was appalled to find my period products contained all these ingredients, and no natural disposable option existed. My immediate response was to research and develop an alternative that respected women’s bodies and our planet.”

Today the work doesn’t stop. We’re always improving the performance of the products, and finding new innovations to look after our environment.

All of our menstrual, incontinence and baby care products use only organic and natural materials.

Our entire supply chain, from raw materials and processing, shares in our commitment to manage and monitor resources respectfully and ethically.
