Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Kelpon cost more than a conventional tampon?
The Kelpon is not a standard product, but a patented technological innovation based on seaweed. This makes its production more complex and currently more expensive than conventional tampons.
We produce in Europe
Our supply chain is deliberately more regional than that of many conventional period products. This means higher but fairer standards, shorter distances, and better quality control.
Regulated raw materials, manufacturing in Germany
Our seaweed is harvested under controlled conditions and according to applicable EU regulations; tampon production takes place in Germany. This costs more than global low-cost chains, but for us, it is a promise of quality and responsibility.
Innovation instead of stagnation
The tampon is a product that has changed little for decades. We invest in research, development, and scaling to make period products healthier, more sustainable, and better. We don't want a luxury tampon, but a premium product.
Why is the Kelpon better for my microbiome?
Many conventional products dry out mucous membranes or contain chemicals that can disrupt the natural balance. Our algae fibers are naturally biocompatible and extremely gentle. They respect your flora and ensure a comfortable wearing experience without irritation.
Why isn't the Kelpon green?
Since we use an extract for the Kelpons, and not the whole algae, the color pigments do not even get into the tampon fibers. The extract is naturally white-beige, so we don't have to bleach the Kelpons. A small gift from nature.
And it generally makes sense to use white menstrual products because the color of the menstrual fluid can provide insights into one's health.
If the Kelpon is biodegradable, won't it dissolve inside me?
The biodegradability of the Kelpon is very important to us, and we expect it to biodegrade both on land and in water within a few weeks.
However, since the Kelpon remains in the body for only a few hours, you don't have to worry about it dissolving there.
How is Kelpon made?
The Kelpon consists internally of a biotechnologically produced fiber derived from brown algae (kelp).
This fiber is extremely absorbent, naturally soft, and, unlike cotton, very smooth, making insertion and removal particularly comfortable
