Frequently Asked Questions

How many menstrual products fit in one tampon dispenser?

The number of products that fit in a dispenser depends on the model. Our tampon and pad dispenser has space for 200 tampons and 40 pads.

What is the best way to dispose of menstrual products?

Menstrual products should never be flushed down the toilet, as this can cause blockages. The best way to dispose of used tampons and sanitary pads is in sanitary bags or wrapped in toilet paper and put them in the trash.

What products can I use to fill the tampon dispenser?

Our tampon dispenser can be filled with standard refill products. For tampons, this includes sizes regular, mini, and midi. For sanitary pads, sizes regular (Always 1) and long (Always 2) fit.

Sanitary pad and tampon dispensers as a help in times of need

Quality and functionality are paramount to us. Our tampon and sanitary pad dispenser, made of stainless steel, is simply wall-mounted. This way, it takes up little space and cannot be easily misplaced. The brushed matte stainless steel provides an elegant and timeless look. The dispenser holds 200 tampons and 40 sanitary pads, so it doesn't need to be refilled as often. Refilling is quick and easy. On our website, you can also find directly compatible tampons and sanitary pads for refilling at a low price. However, you can, of course, also use other hygiene products of your choice for the dispenser. No matter the setting, our tampon dispenser provides the necessary products for reliable menstrual protection.

Ending taboo and period poverty once and for all

Menstrual bleeding should be the most natural thing in the world, yet the topic remains highly taboo in many areas. Even today, menstruating people still refer to their period as "their period" or "strawberry week." For young people in particular, menstruation is still associated with shame because it involves blood and intimacy. At the same time, money has to be spent month after month on period products. For many menstruating people, simply buying a pack of tampons or pads isn't a significant expense. However, for some, those 3-4 CHF make a huge difference. Period poverty affects at least 500 million people worldwide who cannot afford menstrual products and have to resort to toilet paper or cloth instead. With our Armatron tampon dispenser, we want to counteract these problems and, by making menstrual products freely available, send a message against the stigma and the costs associated with menstruation.
