Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Formaldehyde releasers in adhesives and cellulose processing, Dioxane (1,4-dioxane) in synthetic topsheet and adhesives, Skin irritation and maceration from moisture retention and Microplastics from synthetic topsheet degradation on the and not on the Eco By Naty.
  • We flag Heavy metals in cellulose or plant-derived materials on the Eco By Naty and not on the .
  • The is Bamboo fibers, cellulose core, likely cotton or synthetic topsheet where the Eco By Naty is Bamboo-derived viscose, cotton, plant-based absorbent core, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
