Washable and Reusable Compresses - SELENACARE

Our washable and reusable pads are an effective and sustainable alternative to disposable products. An innovative and healthy protection that improves the quality of intimate hygiene, as well as being respectful with the environment and more economical in the long term.

They are made with our innovative SELENAtec® technology of ultra-thin multilayer fabric (4mm) that absorbs fluids and guarantees a sensation of dryness in contact with the skin, using antibacterial technical fabric to prevent the appearance of unpleasant odors (Silverplus®). These layers are microporous, allowing breathability but preventing leaks.

Ease of care: rinse with cold water, wash by hand or machine at 30º with neutral soap and let dry naturally.

What is the first thing I should do after using my pad?

This is the key! Once used, at the end of the day, rinse them with cold or lukewarm water to evacuate all the blood inside. It is best to avoid hot water, which tends to "cook" the blood and therefore bind it to the fibers of the absorbent part.

What to do after rinsing it with cold water?

You have three possibilities:

• Wash it by hand and dry it , so you can use it again during the week.
• Let it dry and wash it in the next wash.
• Put it in the washing machine at 30° with the rest of the clothes.

Advice to maximize the absorption of my compress?

Washing is an important part. Here are some tips to keep your washable pads in perfect condition:

• Wash the compress at a maximum of 40° to avoid damaging the waterproof part.
• Use a washing bag to protect fabrics and lace from the textures of other types of clothing (3 compresses maximum in a washing bag).
• Use liquid detergent with less than 15% fatty agents, to avoid saturating the absorbent fibers.
• From time to time, soak your washable compress in warm water and with a little white vinegar, to purify the fabrics.

What shouldn't I do?

Our washable pads don't get along very well with:

• The softeners (these saturate the fibers and make the pads less absorbent)
• The bleach (which could damage the fabrics)
• The heat, such as from a dryer or from direct contact with the heater (can damage the waterproof part).
