Saalt Leakproof Underwear High Waist
At a glance
Summary
Saalt Leakproof Underwear High Waist scores 75/100. From the same B-Corp-certified brand behind the top-ranked Saalt menstrual cup. Outer fabric is recycled nylon and elastane; gusset blends TENCEL Lyocell (sustainably sourced wood pulp from FSC forests) with organic cotton against the skin. OEKO-TEX STeP certified (Sustainable Textile Production) and independently tested for PFAS with non-detect results. The high-waist contains synthetic shell fabric, which is why it doesn't reach the 88 score of the all-organic-cotton Period Company option — but cleaner than legacy brands. Saalt donates 2% of revenue to menstrual-health initiatives.

TENCEL Lyocell + Organic Cotton GussetVery Good
TENCEL Lyocell is regenerated cellulose made from FSC-certified wood pulp in a closed-loop solvent process (>99% solvent recovery). Combined with organic cotton against the skin, this is the cleanest absorbent system in synthetic-outer period underwear.

Synthetic shell fabric made from post-consumer waste, reducing virgin plastic demand. Still a plastic-based textile with some microfiber shedding in laundering, but recycled content is a meaningful sustainability upgrade.
