FabLittleBag Biodegradable Sanitary Bags - Starter Plus Pack

Make Your Periods a Little Kinder to the Environment

Did you know that 60% of women in the UK flush their tampons down the toilet? 60%! That’s roughly 6,342,000 (six million, three hundred and forty-two thousand) women flushing 11,000 tampons EACH down the toilet in their lifetimes. Are you ready for the seriously concerning statistic? This equates to a rather frightening 69,762,000,000 (sixty-nine billion seven hundred and sixty-two million) tampons entering our sewerage system, blocking drains and then polluting our - already struggling – planet’s rivers and oceans.

Correctly Dispose of Your Sanitary Wear

If you must use disposable tampons or pads, they need to be disposed of in a bin and never flushed. This can be a tricky business though. Sanitary bins in public toilets are often overflowing and smelly – you absolutely don’t want to have to push someone else’s used sanitary wear out of the way to jam yours in, yuck! So flushing is the more attractive option.

Likewise, when you’re at a friend’s house – you don’t want to throw your pad or tampon in their bathroom bin for their family to see. Even if you wrap it in loo roll, the devil on your shoulder sneakily jumps in and says, ‘just flush it, no one will know’! But don’t! Simply take your Fab Little Bag with you wherever you go, and you will never be tempted to flush again.

The Fab Little Bag – Easy to Use, Discreet and Biodegradable Period Protection

This clever little handbag must-have opens with just one hand by using the finger loops on either side and seals closed using the peel-off-and-seal strip on the inside of the bag. You can then discreetly and confidently dispose of your sanitary wear in the nearest bin or pop it in your bag until a bin is available. The bag is opaque so no one can see what’s inside and it prevents any unpleasant odours escaping, saving your blushes and your flushes when you’re at a friend’s, boyfriends or work colleagues house… well, wherever you are actually! The Starter Plus Pack contains 45 disposal bags that's 2 bathroom packs and 1 refillable handbag pack to take with you wherever you go.

Do Your Bit for the Planet and Your Fellow Women

Fab Little Bag is biodegradable (even in airless conditions) and is made partly from sustainable materials. It gives you the option to bin your sanitary wear or pop it in your bag if there’s no bin available but subconsciously reminds you never to flush! What’s more, Fab Little Bag donate 5p from every starter pack sold to Wellbeing of Women. This marvellous charity is dedicated to improving the health of women and babies. It is the only charity finding cures and treatments across the breadth of female reproductive health: pregnancy and childbirth, fertility and IVF, gynaecological cancers, and overlooked areas like endometriosis, PCOS and the menopause.
