What is a pad and tampon dispenser?

The Period Pack is a dispenser for free dispensing of menstrual products such as tampons and pads. Available in 2 models: Tampon dispenser (regular and super tampons) Tampon and pad dispenser (regular tampons and pads). The dispenser works without batteries or power. So you can easily place the tampon and pad dispenser anywhere. At the touch of a button, the dispenser dispenses 1 menstrual product at a time. A short delay after dispensing prevents improper use.

Is the provision of free tampons and pads mandatory?

Within Europe and the United Kingdom, only Scotland has legislation requiring menstrual products to be provided free of charge. Other countries have not yet made it mandatory. However, companies and public organizations are increasingly focusing on inclusion and gender equality. With a tampon dispenser or pad dispenser, it is possible to make tampons and pads as freely available as toilet paper.

Are tampons or pads harmful to the environment?

Many tampons and pads contain unnecessary chemicals or harmful substances. This has a negative impact on the environment and increases the risk of infection. All CWS menstrual products are made from 100% organic cotton and do not contain any harmful substances. A mechanical timer in the Period Pack tampon or pad dispenser provides a small time interval. This makes it impossible to remove more than one menstrual product at a time. This reduces the risk of unnecessary waste and prevents overuse, which is good from an economic and environmental standpoint.

Can tampons and pads be flushed?

Menstrual products should not be flushed down the toilet. They can get stuck in the drain and cause clogs. Instead, dispose of sanitary pads and tampons in a hygiene bin - which should be in every women’s toilet. Don’t flush tampon or pad wrappers either. These are considered single-use plastics, and flushing them adds more microplastics to our water.

What is better, tampons or pads?

Deciding between tampons and pads depends on comfort, convenience, lifestyle, and menstrual flow. It’s a personal choice. Here’s a quick comparison to help you decide: Tampons Pros: Tampons are inserted into the vagina and provide invisible protection. They’re great for active lifestyles and can be worn while swimming. Tampons come in different absorbencies to match your flow. Cons: Tampons must be comfortable to insert and changed every 4-8 hours to lower the risk of toxic shock syndrome (TSS). Pads Pros: Sanitary pads are worn externally, attached to underwear, making them easy to use. They’re suitable for those who prefer not to insert anything into their body and can be used overnight. Cons: Pads can feel bulky or move around, and they may not be as comfortable for some physical activities. Some people like tampons for their discretion and freedom, while others prefer pads for their simplicity and non-invasiveness. Many people choose to use both at different times during their cycle for optimal comfort and protection. Listen to your body and consider your lifestyle when making your choice.

Why free menstrual products?

Menstruation shouldn’t limit anyone’s chances or cause panic. 86% of women have started menstruating once while not carrying menstrual products. Many women report that this situation causes panic and embarrassment. In addition, not everyone has the financial means to buy tampons or pads, causing them to miss school or work during their period. By providing free tampons and pads, we’re taking a financial burden off their shoulders. Source: Free The Tampons

Scotland leads the way

Starting in 2022, Scotland will be the first country to pass legislation to make tampons and pads free. Menstrual products will be available for free in pharmacies, community centers and schools through tampon and pad dispensers to help tackle menstrual poverty. They hope other countries will follow suit. So let’s make menstrual hygiene products free and take another step towards a more inclusive, supportive and equal society.
