TOTM: certified organic cotton menstrual products

TOTM is a British company specializing in the manufacture and sale of menstrual hygiene products made with certified organic cotton. Its catalog includes pads, tampons, panty liners, and menstrual cups, all presented as free from toxins, heavy metals, dyes, bleach, and pesticides. The company presents itself as an alternative to conventional products, with a focus on comfort, health, and sustainability.

Product catalog

TOTM's offering spans several lines of feminine protection. Pads are sold in organic, natural, night, and maternity versions. Organic and night pads are made with GOTS-certified organic cotton, with leak-proof protection and plastic-free packaging. Natural pads combine organic cotton with FSC-certified wood pulp and are offered at a lower price than the organic ones. Maternity pads, a recent addition, are ultra-absorbent and designed for the days following childbirth.

In the tampon category, the company offers compact applicator tampons, cardboard applicator tampons, and non-applicator tampons. Compact applicator tampons use an ergonomic applicator made of 95% bio-based materials. Cardboard applicator tampons are plastic-free and have been tested for heavy metals. Non-applicator tampons feature a 360-degree security veil to prevent fiber loss and are wrapped in recyclable paper. All are made with GOTS-certified organic cotton and are suitable for vegans.

The range is completed with ultra-lightweight and flexible organic cotton panty liners, and with reusable menstrual cups made of medical-grade TPE, BPA-free, certified vegan, and available in three sizes, with up to eight hours of protection.

Certifications and testing

TOTM's products hold GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification for organic cotton and B Corp certification for the company. The firm states that its products have been clinically tested and are non-irritating. They also undergo rigorous heavy metals testing. The company also declares that its products are vegan and not tested on animals.

Social and environmental commitment

TOTM supports the organization Endometriosis UK. It also offers the possibility of gifting a pack of pads to its charity partner In Kind Direct for £2. The company provides carbon-neutral shipping for orders over £18 and uses plastic-free wrappers on several of its products.
