Always choose the lowest absorbency tampon for your flow. If you’re new to tampons, begin with joni regular tampons and level up to a stronger absorbency if needed. Tampons should be changed every four hours and never longer than eight hours.

joni tampons are made from 100% organic cotton, including the absorbent insertion material and the withdrawal string. Our tampons are certified by GOTS, OCS, and OEKO-TEX 100, which ensures that they do not contain any harmful materials or chemicals, such as nitrates, heavy metals, formaldehyde, titanium dioxide, and chlorine. The withdrawal string is coated with a small amount of paraffin emulsion (a GOTS-approved ingredient) as a moisture-repellent to protect blood from passing onto underwear. Each joni tampon is wrapped within a plant-based wrap derived from cellulose, which is BPI and TUV certified for compostability in standard conditions. joni tampons are Health Canada and FDA Approved.  

joni tampons and their wrapper are compostable! However, some municipal compost programs accept soiled tampons and others do not — so check with your local program. joni tampons may be placed in some home composters or your own outdoor compost — cutting them beforehand will speed up the process. Otherwise, joni tampons can be thrown into your regular garbage where they will be taken to the landfill to decompose. Please note: tampons should never be flushed down the toilet.
