WUKA are a UK brand focussing on period pants are designed in the UK using Austrian Lenzing® MicroModal fabric, sustainably made from beech tree fibres especially for WUKA. This innovative fabric is 3.5x softer than fine cotton and feels incredible against the skin. Some of the great benefits of using this fabric:

- energy is offset to be CO2 neutral
- 99% of greywater produced during manufacturing is recaptured and recycled
- resistant to shrinkage and colour fading, with antibacterial properties.
- This soft, breathable and moisture wicking fabric forms the outer layers of these pants. A central layer of highly absorbent fabric absorbs blood and holds it, while a breathable but leak proof layer makes these period pants reliably period proof, with no need for additional period wear.
