Antibacterial Reusable Menstrual Cups

The Bfree Cup is Safe for Use and Sustainable

— August 11, 2022 — Eco
​Reusable menstrual cups gained popularity on the market a few years ago as brands were seeking to curb the production of single-use materials such as regular tampons and pads. Bfree Cup—which is a Canadian health and wellness company that emphasizes sustainability and comfort—has one solution on the market.

Made from 100% medical grade silicone, the Bfree Cup is an antibacterial product that offers comfortable and convenient period protection. The reusable menstrual cup can be worn for up to 12 hours and can hold as much as two to three tampons worth of fluid at any given time.

The brand has included a "unique, nature-inspired petal above the rim" which strengthens the leak protection of the product. Free of chemicals, the Bfree Cup can last up to 10 years which equals about 2,500 tampons.
