At Alta Luna we use the lightest and thinnest, but mightiest absorbent material available for our pad cores: Zorb! Manufactured by The Wazoodle Company, Zorb is a blend of cellulosic and synthetic fibers that has absolutely no comparison. It absorbs 2x it's weight in less than two seconds providing extreme and immediate protection. It's lightweight construction keeps our pads light and breathable while never sacrificing performance or comfort. So thin you'll forget you're wearing a pad; but so mighty all of your flows will be protected.

 

 

Light/Liner

• Made with only two layers (backer and topper materials) this pad is super light, breathable, and trim. The backer is an absorbent AND waterproof layer in one and performs the task of both a light and a liner.
• Liners can be worn everyday for discharge or possible spotting, as a backup to a tampon or cup.
• Are absorbent enough that they will perform on your light/medium flow days too.

Medium or Daytime

• Made with one layer of absorbency.
• The most versatile absorbency of them all. Medium pads are great for everything from light to medium/heavy flows.
• Can be used as backups to tampons or cups, spotting protection, and will protect against mild incontinence as well.
• Great beginning point for new menstruators and those suffering mild incontinence.

Heavy or Nighttime

• Made with two layers of absorbency.
• Strong enough for truly heavy days, overnights, and mild incontinence.
• Made without a lot of bulk to maintain comfort and ensure discretion.

Gushers

• Made with two layers of absorbency, PLUS one layer of flannel/woven cotton, PLUS one layer of cut flannel, AND a cut layer of comfy topper fabric (typically velour) combining for three layers of absorbent fabric on top of a super absorbent core.
• Gushers are specialty pads that have slits in the top fabric that expose two layers of flannel and cotton on top of the absorbent core. These cut layers create frays, texture, and extra surface area that immediately traps super fast, “gushy” flows, and clots.
• Absolute must have for ultra heavy flows, heavy overnights, long work shifts, clotting, mild incontinence and postpartum needs.
• Custom made ultra absorbency gushers are made with three layers of absorbency.

Ultra

• Three layers of absorbency.
• When you need an extra boost or layer of protection for those extremely heavy times.
• Many people who perform shift work without a lot of opportunity to change pads frequently choose ultra absorbencies over heavy to keep them safe for extended wear.
• Any custom pad size over 12" can be made with ultra absorbency for the same cost as a heavy pad.
