Classic-Marie-montre

Made of high quality and carefully selected textiles such as naturally antibacterial hemp and organic cotton, Öko-flow's period underwear are perfectly in line with the company's human and ecological values. With no added PFASs or Nanosilver, the company made the conscious decision to use a food grade polyurethane membrane (PUL) for the waterproofing of the Öko-flow underwear in order to protect human health by limiting the use of chemical products.

The Öko-Flow collection is the perfect choice to start a gentle transition to reusable intimate products. They are easy to care for, comfortable, durable, absorbent and machine washable. They are also economical in the long run, so you won't have to buy disposable menstrual products every month for years to come.

crochet 65x65How to use?

Adjust absorption with inserts!

Simply slide one or two inserts into your Öko-Flow undies and change as needed for heavier flow days. These insert allow you to customize absorbency depending on your needs. You can also wear the Öko-Flow underwear on its own.

The widest part of the removable insert must be placed towards the back of the underwear. Slide the insert under the two elastics along the gusset. The insert must fit within the purple, waterproof portion of the underwear.

Waterproof Pouch

The Öko-Flow waterproof pouch will be perfect for keeping a menstrual panty in your bag "just in case", or for carrying extra inserts during your period.

Made of organic cotton lamined with food grade polyurethane, the pouch offers a versatile size to meet your needs. Holds up to 3 medium inserts or one Öko-Flow panty.

Tip: If you need to change inserts often throughout the day, you can use two pockets; one for clean inserts and one for used inserts. Add a small ribbon on a loop of one of the pockets to easily differentiate them.

crochet 65x65How to wash?

Caring for Öko-Flow is easy. Choose the method that works best for you, in three steps (or fewer!).

1- Store your used undies & inserts

With soaking (stain prevention): Keep a container with cold or warm soapy water in the bathroom and place your used undies and inserts in the water throughout you cycle. Change the water daily for a maximum of 2 days.

Without soaking: place your used undies and inserts in a dry container. For example, a small bucket


2- Stain treatment

(optional*)

1- Rinse or soak your undies and inserts in cold water to remove excess blood.;

2- Shake the bottle well then spray Öko-Clean on the menstrual product.

Let sit for a few minutes the wash as usual.


3- Wash day

Add to a regular laundry, cold or warm water.
Hang or tumble dry low. Never use bleach or fabric softeners. If needed, we recommend use of sodium percarbonate as a bleaching agent. Use a soft soap detergent without glycerine.



* You can use sodium percarbonate if you don't have Öko-Clean.
Here's how to make a stain remover treatment with sodium percarbonate.
