Mimi & Co, an Australian brand specializing in reusable hygiene products, has introduced the Mimi® Reusable Menstrual Disc. Designed as a sustainable alternative to disposable tampons and pads, the disc is made from medical-grade silicone and offers up to 12 hours of leak-free protection, with a capacity equivalent to six tampons.
Mimi & Co's Mimi® Reusable Menstrual Disc addresses common pain points in menstrual care, such as discomfort, environmental waste, and high long-term costs. This reusable solution is expected to last up to five years and may potentially save users over $230 in period care costs annually. The disc comes in two sizes to accommodate different anatomies. It also features an easy-removal tab and includes a sterilization cup, storage case, and travel pouch for convenience.
