Reusable menstrual cups of medical grade silicone have as small an environmental impact as 20 single-use pads or tampons, which is an amount many people are using per month to handle their periods. High-quality menstrual cups are reusable for up to 10 years, and have the lowest environmental impact of all period products out there. Use your menstrual cup for as long as it remains functional up to its full lifespan of 10 years to reduce its footprint per use as much as possible.

How To Find Out
10th Birthday
One of the best tips for a zero waste period is to find a period product with a long lifespan. The longer the lifespan, the more zero waste the product. So, what’s the lifespan of a period cup? We can only talk for our Ruby Cup - it lasts you up to 10 years, provided that it’s taken well care of. Go to our blog to find out how you help the Ruby Cup make it to its 10th birthday.

Things To Think About
Thinking Of You
This #PlasticFreeJuly, let’s take a look into the environmental footprint of a number of period products. Single-use pads & tampon have a very high environmental footprint. Their plastic content is up to 90%, their lifespan is extremely short and their waste management is complex. Don't you think it's time to say goodbye to your disposable products and start a zero-waste period? Check out our blog and find out how to make the switch!

Wanted
Not all tampons and pads are vegan, but on top of this these products are also not very sustainable choices. Choose a vegan period cup like Ruby Cup if you want a vegan period product. In addition to being vegan, it is also zero waste, body-friendly, and will last you up to 10 years. #Vegan #MenstrualCup #SustainableLiving #ZeroWaste #VeganLife

There is SO much hidden plastic in disposable period products. Some pads consist of 90% plastic, did you know that!? That's the same amount of plastic as 4 carrier bags. No wonder it takes a pad so long to decompose AND it suddenly makes sense why in summer they make you sweat so much...it's literally plastic stuck in your panties 😖) Time to SAY NO to #plastic in your period products and a DOUBLE NO to the #bloodywaste they create!

Let’s stop the #bloodywaste! Tampons & pads are two of the biggest culprits for plastic-based marine pollution. Instead of tossing your #disposable period product in the trash, switch to a #reusable Ruby Cup and save up to 11,000 tampons from landing in the trash (or worse, our oceans!)
