How it works…

Carefully tested for superior leakproof absorption ensuring protection without sacrificing comfort or style.

The main fabric of ACTIVV underwear is 85% nylon and 15% elastane.

The gusset of the underwear has four layers:

Layer 1
The absorbent layer which is anti-bacterial and anti-odour having been treated with the patented SilverClear® technology. Safe and non-toxic, and ecological, SilverClear® was originally developed for use in advanced wound care and delivers the fastest acting and most durable anti-bacterial performance on the market.
100% Cotton

Layer 2
This is the liquid storage layer that locks in fluid.
Our thong will store up to approx 15ml of liquid and our mid-rise brief will store up to approx 20ml of liquid.
Terry Fabric - 70% Cotton, 30% Polyester

Layer 3
This is the leak-proof layer which is waterproof so leaks are avoided.
TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) thermally bonded to 100% Polyester fabric. Nontoxic and breathable. TPU is bonded using heat unilke PUL (Polyurethane Laminate) which uses chemicals.

Layer 4
This is the outer layer and is the same fabric that the rest of the underwear is made of.
85% Nylon, 15% Elastane

 

Supplier Transparency and Certifications

  • amfori BSCI Audit

    Annual audit based on code of conduct with 11 principles that range from fair remuneration to no child labour, along with a step-by-step approach that enables companies to monitor, engage, get empowered and receive support to put sustainable trade at the heart of their business.

  • SMETA Audit

    SMETA (Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit) is the most widely used social audit in the world

    SMETA is Sedex’s social auditing methodology, enabling businesses to assess their sites and suppliers to understand working conditions in their supply chain.

    SMETA assesses a site based on their organisation’s standards of labour, health and safety, environment and business ethics. Sedex believes these are key areas for assessing an organisation’s responsible business practices and meeting social compliance.

  • OEKO-TEX®

    STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® is one of the world's best-known labels for textiles tested for harmful substances. It stands for customer confidence and high product safety. If a textile article carries the STANDARD 100 label, you can be certain that every component of this article, i.e. every thread, button and other accessories, has been tested for harmful substances and that the article therefore is harmless for human health.

  • Global Recyled Standard (GRS)

    The GRS is an international, voluntary, full product standard that sets requirements for third-party certification of recycled content, chain of custody, social and environmental practices and chemical restrictions.

    The GRS is intended to meet the needs of companies looking to verify the recycled content of their products (both finished and intermediate) and to verify responsible social, environmental and chemical practices in their production.

  • SilverClear®

    Formulated from silver, a historically proven and powerful antibacterial agent, SilverClear® creates a potent and invisible coating which inhibits the growth and kills bacteria. One of the most innovative aspects of SilverClear® is its bactericidal action. Most antimicrobial products are bacteriostatic, which means they only inhibit the growth of bacteria and don’t necessarily destroy them. Not only does SilverClear® completely neutralize the proliferation of bacteria, but it also destroys the bacteria practically on contact.

  • SGS Tested

    Tested by SGS, the world's leading testing, inspection and certification company for certain harmful chemicals like PFOA (Perfluorooctanoic Acid). None detected.
