Solvay and Pantys join forces to advance menstrual health and sustainability

Donation drive in São Paulo aims to support 250 young women’s health and environmental responsibility

Solvay has kicked off its new partnership with Pantys, the world’s largest Femtech apparel brand, by supporting menstrual health for young women in need.

On November 13, Solvay and Pantys hosted a donation event at Project Arrastão, a São Paulo nonprofit assisting low-income families. The event provided absorbent, high-tech underwear to 250 teenagers from the Campo Limpo community, empowering them to manage their menstrual health with dignity and comfort.

This initiative reflects both organizations’ commitment to social and environmental responsibility. Pantys’ absorbent products, which are designed for a diverse user base, are clinically approved for effectiveness. Integrating Solvay’s Amni Soul Eco® technology, Pantys’ range aims to reduce environmental impact by being carbon-neutral and biodegradable, while also promoting skin comfort. This makes Pantys’ collection the only globally clinically approved absorbent lingerie line, reinforcing its credibility and effectiveness.

“At Solvay, we believe that innovation should drive positive change,” said Lisa Brown, Solvay Group General Counsel. “Our collaboration with Pantys represents a commitment to both sustainability and social equity. By supporting Pantys’ pioneering work, we aim to tackle critical issues such as period poverty and environmental impact. This partnership aligns with our vision of a more inclusive and sustainable future for all.”

“Since day one, Pantys has been dedicated to creating sustainable solutions for girls and women,” said Pantys CEO Emily Ewell. “Our partnership with Solvay began in 2017, and we’re thrilled to work with a partner equally committed to reducing inequality and building a healthier planet.”

This partnership aligns with Solvay's global Corporate Citizenship program. Through this program, Solvay actively supports individuals and communities, channeling efforts to tackle worldwide societal challenges through strategic investments in education, sustainability, and local community initiatives.
