Safe for the skin
Our entire Lille range does not contain any of the 26 EU allergens and is therefore hypoallergenic.
This means that regular dermatological tests are carried out by independent laboratories to ensure that the use of our pads minimises the risk of skin intolerance.
Our packaging
For hygiene reasons, our products are packaged in bags, which are themselves packaged in boxes. But Lille goes even further; in addition to paying attention to our products’ components, we are also concerned about what our packaging is made of!
Our sustainable and environmental values
Lille Healthcare is committed, through concrete actions, to better manufacturing, for every individual, user or employee and for the planet.
Our production
We are proud to mostly manufacture in France and Belgium, at ISO 14001 certified production sites using green energy.
Our PEFC accreditation
We exclusively use PEFC pulp in our Lille products’ absorbent pad: The fluff pulp is one of main components used in an absorbent product. In reality, it is made of cellulose fibres derived from wood pulp. This 100% natural raw material is subject to defibration before being combined with other components to form an absorbent hygiene product.
Today, the world’s forests are seriously threatened by deforestation. At Lille Healthcare, we want to promote and actively support sustainable forest and land management to reduce and eliminate these threats. That’s why we buy the raw material necessary for our production from PEFC-certified suppliers.
A sustainably managed forest is a forest:
that respects and maintains its biodiversity
whose soil and water are respected
which is healthy and renews itself
which benefits the whole society: wood resources, carbon sinks, a place to walk and for hobbies
The PEFC certification substantiates the respect of environmental, societal and economical functions of the forest. To know more, www.PEFC.org
