At my mimi, we believe sustainable period care should be easy. No complicated systems. No compromise on comfort. Just smart choices that make a real difference.

our commitment to doing better

We designed the my mimi menstrual disc to challenge wasteful habits. Our focus has always been to offer a product that’s reusable, long-lasting and better for your body – and the planet.

Each disc is built to last, meaning fewer disposables heading to landfill and fewer plastics entering our environment. We’re not perfect, but we’re moving forward every day.

why reusables matter

The average person uses over 10,000 tampons or pads in their lifetime. That adds up to a staggering amount of waste – most of it plastic-based, and most of it not biodegradable.

By using a my mimi menstrual disc, you can reduce your environmental footprint dramatically. One disc can replace years of disposable products. Less waste. Less expense. Less impact.

minimal packaging and efficient manufacturing

We keep our packaging simple and recyclable. Every disc is shipped in a lightweight, compostabel satchel - just enough to protect it, without the extras.

Our silicone is medical-grade, soft, durable, and doesn’t rely on unnecessary additives or coatings. No bleach. No fragrance. No hidden surprises.

carbon-conscious shipping

We ship quickly and responsibly from Australia, and we’re actively exploring carbon-neutral delivery options. We also aim to consolidate packaging materials and reduce emissions wherever we can.

better for your body and the planet

Our discs are made from 100% medical-grade silicone. They’re BPA-free, latex-free, cruelty-free and vegan. Safe for you. Kind to the environment. Reliable during your cycle.

We take product safety seriously, and we work with ethical suppliers who meet international standards for health, safety and quality.

always evolving

Sustainability isn’t a checkbox. It’s something we build into our decision-making, our packaging, and our daily operations.

We’re constantly reviewing our practices and looking for ways to improve – whether that’s through better materials, smarter shipping, or less wasteful fulfilment.

thanks for making the switch

When you choose my mimi, you’re not just picking a new period product. You’re choosing a different future – one that supports your body and the world around you.
