Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Heavy metals in cellulose or plant-derived materials on the Eco By Naty and not on the Here We Flo.
  • We flag PFAS in waterproof backing layer, Residual caustic or solvent from viscose processing, Microbial growth and odor if not changed promptly and Formaldehyde or formaldehyde-releasing resins in backings on the Here We Flo and not on the Eco By Naty.
  • The Eco By Naty is Bamboo-derived viscose, cotton, plant-based absorbent core where the Here We Flo is Bamboo pulp/viscose with waterproof backing layer, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • The gap is 45 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Eco By Naty is the one to buy.
  • We are less certain about the Here We Flo grade, at 35% confidence against 78%, because it discloses less.

Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
