That is 90 kilos of sanitary towels and 60 kilos of tampons in residual waste. Of course you will have to wash reusable sanitary towels, which is also harmful to the environment. There has not been enough research to conclude whether disposable or reusable menstrual products are better for the environment, but Milieu Centraal has compared this to washable diapers. This has shown that washable diapers are better for the environment, even if you include washing and production.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003c!----\u003e","brand":"ImseVimse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39354027737169,"sku":"1840","price":21.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/3475\/6177\/products\/ImseVimse-trial-kit-cloth-pads-black_1.jpg?v=1622094508","url":"https:\/\/zozoro.shop\/en\/products\/imsevimse-starter-pack","provider":"Zo Zero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
