Organic Cotton Period Pads

Most period pads are 90% plastic. The topsheet — the layer that sits against your skin for five days every month — is polyethylene film, the same material used in shopping bags.

It's occlusive, it traps heat and moisture, and it's often bleached with chlorine, a process that can leave dioxin residue on the surface that touches your body. OCBON replaces the plastic topsheet with 100% organic cotton grown on company-operated farms in Texas.

OCS (Organic Content Standard) certification from Textile Exchange means an independent auditor has traced every bale of cotton from those fields to the finished pad — you're not taking a label claim at face value. The bleaching is hydrogen peroxide only.

No dioxin risk. No chlorine residue.

The layers are bonded by water pressure rather than chemical adhesives, so there's nothing extra between you and the cotton. Dermatest Institute — Germany's leading independent clinical testing lab — awarded OCBON the Excellent rating after testing on human subjects showed zero detectable skin irritation.

Fewer than 1 in 5 products submitted achieve that rating. All three sizes share the same certified organic construction: Regular for everyday flow, Large for heavy days, Overnight for extended protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are OCBON period pads made from?
OCBON pads are made from 100% OCS-certified organic cotton grown on company-operated farms in Texas. The topsheet, absorbent core, and construction use no plastic film, no chlorine bleach, no synthetic fragrance, no chemical adhesives, and no PFAS. Layers are bonded by water pressure (hydroentanglement), not glue.
What does OCS certified mean on a period pad?
OCS (Organic Content Standard) from Textile Exchange is an independent audit of the supply chain — from the cotton farm through spinning, weaving, and manufacturing. It verifies that the percentage of organic cotton claimed in the product is real, with full chain-of-custody documentation at every step.
What is the difference between OCS and GOTS certification?
OCS (Organic Content Standard) verifies the percentage of organic material in a product by auditing the supply chain. It confirms that the organic cotton content claim is accurate and traceable. GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) covers a broader scope: in addition to organic content, it sets requirements for dyes, processing chemicals, wastewater treatment, and worker welfare throughout the entire supply chain. OCBON pads hold OCS certification.
Are OCBON pads good for sensitive skin?
Yes. OCBON earned the Dermatest Excellent rating — the highest grade from Germany's Dermatest Institute — after clinical patch testing. Zero participants showed redness, itching, or sensitization. The 100% organic cotton topsheet and the absence of synthetic fragrances, dyes, and chlorine bleach make these pads suitable for people with sensitive skin, vulvar irritation, or reactions to conventional pads.
Which OCBON pad size should I use?
Regular pads (24cm, 32 count) cover light to normal flow for daytime use. Large pads (28cm, 28 count) provide extra absorbency and coverage for heavier days. Overnight pads (35cm, 20 count) are designed for sleep — longer length and extra absorbent core for full-cycle protection. All three sizes use the same OCS-certified organic cotton formula with flexible wings.
Do OCBON pads contain PFAS?
No. OCBON pads contain no PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances). A 2023 study found PFAS in 48% of period products tested, often in the leak-proof backing layer. OCBON uses no fluorinated chemicals in any layer — no PFAS in the topsheet, absorbent core, wings, adhesive, or backing.
