Sustainable Period Care Products

The Lil-Lets reusable tampon applicator has been announced by the brand as an alternative to disposable feminine care products that will provide consumers with a hygienic, simple to use solution. The product is crafted from thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) for the tube and plunger, while the lid is achieved using high-impact polystyrene (HIPS). These materials are presently already in use with menstrual cup products to enhance peace of mind and can even be recycled, depending on local guidelines.

Senior Brand Manager and Spokesperson from Lil-Lets Abby Smith spoke on the new Lil-Lets reusable tampon applicator saying, "Lil-Lets understands women and people with periods, and that using tampons with applicators is a personal choice. We listened when our customers had concerns about the environmental impact of our plastic applicator products, and, following 12 months of product design and testing, we are thrilled to be in a position to make a difference today. This is not a single-use applicator; it was designed to be used and reused. It is easy to make the swap and, by choosing our reusable applicator, you will be saving an average of 286 single-use applicators from being thrown away and possibly ending up in landfill or oceans.”
