Market Overview

Sanitary napkins are absorbent materials that women and girls can use in their underwear during menstruation or in any other situation where it's vital to absorb blood flow from the vagina. The materials used to make menstrual pads vary based on the brand. The majority of sanitary napkins on the market are disposable, while others are disposable and designed for single use only. Reusable sanitary napkins, on the other hand, are fabric pads that may be repeatedly washed and used. Sanitary napkins are available in many forms and sizes, and their ability to absorb both heavy and light menstrual blood varies. Tampons and menstruation cups are worn inside the vagina; sanitary napkins, on the other hand, are worn externally. Sanitary napkins were traditionally composed of cotton and hydrophilic wood pulp. Superabsorbent fiber technology, which uses materials like cotton, cellulose, and polymers, is now used in the production of sanitary napkins due to technical advancements. Over time, a number of developments have been made, including panty liners, scented napkins, winged napkins, quilted fabric linings, and thinner pads. The fluid acquisition layer, the absorbent structure, the distribution component, and the liquid impermeable membrane are the four functional parts of a sanitary napkin. These napkins come in a variety of shapes and sizes, each with a unique absorption capacity.
