Founded in 1993, GladRags is a small business with big ideas: to make cloth pads and menstrual cups go mainstream and empower menstruators everywhere. GladRags is proud to make their products in the United States and to source materials from local and/or women-owned suppliers whenever possible.

GladRags acknowledges and pays respect to the Native American communities of the Pacific Northwest of the past, present, and future.

Using their business as a force for good, GladRags has been committed to integrating environmental and social justice into every aspect of how they do business. They insist on a transparent and sustainable approach to business in every detail.

At the heart of the GladRags brand are these core values:

Inclusivity. Curiosity. Positivity.
