Our Sustainability Promise

At Libresse, we’re not afraid to tackle the messy stuff - whether that’s blood, bodies or our environmental impact. So, we’re continuously switching to renewable, plastic-free and recyclable materials and practices, with an aim to reduce our climate impact and waste as much as we can. 

We champion the health of women+* by dismantling taboos and shame around their bodies. But caring for women+ also means caring for the world around them. 

On this page you’ll find not only our goals, but what we’re currently doing to become more sustainable. We’re honest and open about everything, from vulvas to periods to discharge. So naturally, we want to be as transparent about our sustainability goals as we are about clots and clumps.

Sustainable materials

We're always on the hunt for clever material sourcing that can make our products kinder to the planet (and to vulvas).

In Our Products

We’re using vulva-friendly, responsibly sourced materials. Like the pulp used in our towels and liners that is fully FSC Mix certified (that means the fiber comes from responsibly managed forests and controlled origins). And it doesn’t stop there, we’re designing products that last for longer, so create less waste. Like our award winning period pants that can be reused 50+ times, creating a significantly lower carbon footprint than standard period care products.

What we're doing to reach our goal

Our reusable period pants have 68% less environmental impact*
Our Ultra Day plastic bags are made with 80% materials from recycled and biomass balanced sources.**
Our factories run on 100% certified green electricity***

We’re proud of our sustainability journey and the progress we’ve made so far, but we want to go further to care for women+ and the world around them. Our vision is to become plastic free and reduce material waste. We are committed to reach NetZero by 2050 by focusing on the 8 different areas: Sustainable Innovations, Low Carbon Materials, Fossil-Free Production, Resource Efficiency, Breakthrough Technology, Zero Production Waste, Clean Transportation, Less Waste After Use.*

Project V

Our eco promise is part of our wider Project V initiative, supporting the wellbeing of women and the world they live in. Because we can’t look after our health without looking after the planet’s.
