Our take
Why We Flagged It
Straightforward, clean family ownership with a decades-deep manufacturing pedigree, but on materials we flag it: a 2022 independent screen found detectable organic fluorine (a PFAS indicator) in its applicator tampons while some peers tested non-detect. Read the alert first.
