Natracare nursing pads are made from only totally chlorine free, natural cellulose materials so you can be assured that when you remove the pads to breastfeed, the taste of your milk will not be tainted for baby. By keeping the breasts dry between feeds, you can help to prevent the nipples from becoming sore and cracked.
Because the Natracare nursing pads are biodegradable and compostable, you are also taking care of your child’s future environment too.
Over the last 16 years, Natracare has established a trusted reputation amongst women seeking a chemical-free choice in sanitary protection. The natural range now introduces the Natracare new mother line, including Natural Maternity Pads and Natural Nursing Pads.
These high quality products, made from pure materials, that are totally chlorine free (TCF), provide new mothers with an untainted choice. Many do not realise that chlorine bleaching, used in many conventional personal care products, produces unwanted by-products called dioxins, which have been linked to cancer, endometriosis, and immune system suppression.
Natracare Maternity pads and Nursing pads are free from plastics, synthetics and super absorbents made from petro-chemicals, which can have a negative impact, both on women’s health and the environment. During pregnancy, women are naturally more aware of and concerned about the health and care of their bodies. The pureness of Natracare products can provide women with the necessary reassurance that is so important at this time of their lives
Why natural pads?
Women today are conscious of the need to restrict their contact with synthetic materials and unnecessary chemicals and additives. They are becoming more aware that most of the widely available sanitary pads sold today, contain a blend of chlorine-bleached pulp, polypropylene, polyacrylates and plastic.
For each monthly cycle, it makes sense to choose a pad that is made from natural materials. Many gynaecologists have advised women with sensitive skin to use natracare pads to reduce their contact with chlorine bleached materials, and also products containing synthetics, latex and super absorbents made from petrochemicals. Every year, billions of plastic laden pads are disposed of, and generally they end up in landfill sites to sit unaltered for hundreds of years. Every year, in Britain alone, we would have to dig a hole three hundred feet deep and three hundred feet wide to bury the sanitary pads that are thrown away.
Natracare chemical free pads are high quality products made from only pure and natural materials that are made from plant cellulose. They are not chlorine bleached and are free of rayon, plastics and other similar synthetic materials that have a negative impact on our environment. They are comfortable and reliable and available in different absorbencies and styles. The regular pad is narrower towards the middle of the pad so that it fits the contours of the body more readily, whilst the Slender and Super pads are the same width all along the pad’s length for a more traditional fit. The Ultra with wings is a slim pad with the added protection of wings. They are individually wrapped so that they can be kept discretely in your bag.
