Plant-based Pads
Sparkle's plant-based pads are made without conventional plastics (no polypropylene or polyethylene in the top sheet, core, or back sheet), synthetic super absorbent polymers (sodium polyacrylate, which is a crude oil derivative), artificial fragrances, or dyes.
By replacing the conventional plastics from period products with plant-based layers,we hope to say goodbye to petrochemical-based plastics that could pollute our planet for around 500-600 years after their disposal.
USDA Certified Biobased Pads
Sparkle pads are USDA Certified Biobased Products with 86% biobased content, which means that we use ingredients that reduce our dependence on fossil-based resources.
The USDA Certified Biobased Product label displays a product's biobased content, which is the percentage of a product that comes from a renewable source (such as plants, forestry feedstocks, etc). When we utilize renewable, biobased materials, we displace the need for non-renewable, petroleum-based chemicals.
The % of Biobased Carbon Content is measured using ASTM D6866-22 Method B (AMS) TOC
