TOM Organic

When Aimee Marks was reading the ingredients list on a tampon box, she realised they contained synthetic components, pesticides, dye, and bleach. She was appalled to learn what these toxic substances do to our environment and health and knew she needed to look for a better option. What started as a design idea in high school later became a thriving business.

The company created a range of certified organic feminine hygiene products, so Australian women can have a healthier period. They introduced the world's first organic tampons before branching out into menstrual underwear, period cups, nappies, and baby wipes. Their range of period products includes cotton tampons, panty liners, maternity pads, and sanitary pads.

Their products are also manufactured following the highest ethical and labour standards in the EU.

What Does TOM Organic Stand For?

TOM stands for “Time Of Month.” The brand was solely focused then on feminine hygiene products. But even as they expanded their product line, they kept the name and stayed committed and loyal to it, just as their customers did.

An Award Winning Brand

In 2017, Tom Organic was awarded the Australian Organic Business of the Year. This award recognises companies and individuals that are helping build the future of organic agriculture. TOM Organic was honoured not only for their great products but also for their initiatives concerning women's empowerment.

What Makes TOM Organic Better for the People and the Planet?

The organic cotton used in TOM Organic products is certified by the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) and the Australian Certified Organic Standard (ACO). These certifications guarantee that the products are made without harsh chemicals and produced using environmentally friendly methods. Certain items have ACO certification (not just their cotton component), including panty liners and tampons but excluding pads. Their pads have a plant based core that isn't certified organic but is essential for efficient performance and absorbency.

PETA endorses the Australian company as cruelty free. This means they don't test their products on animals and don't use animal derived ingredients in their vegan items.

Sustainable Packaging

TOM Organic's outer packaging is recyclable and is Forest Steward Council (FSC) certified. FSC certifies that the company follows sustainable forestry practices and the materials are responsibly sourced.

Their product packaging is printed using soy based inks. It's a non toxic, biodegradable alternative to traditional petroleum based inks. It also has a lower environmental impact because it's made from a renewable resource.

Sustainable TOM Organic Ingredients and Materials

Pure organic cotton is free from pesticides, chlorine, bleaches, perfumes, and other toxic chemicals that should not come into contact with the most delicate and absorbent part of your body. That's why TOM Organic uses only certified organic cotton sourced from certified organic farms. Cotton farmers do not spray toxic chemicals on their land, so they grow cotton that's safer for you and the environment.

Their tampons and organic cotton sanitary pads are biodegradable, too.
