Cocoro® is a collection of period panties that has revolutionised the way thousands of women experience menstruation. The design incorporates built-in tech fabrics that absorb blood, vaginal discharge and light urine losses. They are washable and therefore reusable, a healthy and ecological alternative to conventional hygiene products (which are as uncomfortable as they are harmful to the environment).
“The concept of sustainability is ingrained in Cocoro, we seek to be sustainable at all levels: environmentally, socially and financially,” says Laida Memba, chief sustainability officer.
The brand was founded by two architects, a linguist and a graphic designer in 2016 in Barcelona, combining feminism and social consciousness, technology, innovation and sustainability to create a product range which allows women to always feel protected, comfortable, and in harmony with their bodies, without compromising their desires to protect planet Earth. Created to meet the needs of every stage of life, the Cocoro range offers different designs and levels of absorbency.
The Technology

- Technical fibre: the magic layer that makes Cocoro pants absorbent, water-repellent, anti-bacterial, breathable, and odourless
- Modal detail: the outer layer that provides Cocoro’s classic and style-led designs
- Thin, beautiful, comfortable, and practical panties
- Convenient washing: Cocoro’s range can easily be washed with the rest of your laundry
- 100% vegan: Cocoro is 100% cruelty-free. It has never, and will never, be tested on animals
- An eco-friendly impact: Choosing reusable Cocoro underwear helps you make more planet-friendly decisions, reducing carbon footprint and the amount of non-biodegradable, non-recyclable waste that is generated by traditional products
