How we make it
From Egyptian cotton fibre to a sealed jar, every step happens in our own factory — on an automated line, certified to ISO 14001:2015 and GMP.
From fibre to finished pack
Five steps, one roof.
Egyptian cotton
We start from 100% natural Egyptian cotton fibre.
Cotton sliver
The fibre is processed into a uniform sliver of 1.5, 5 or 7 g/m.
Whitening
Bleached with hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), not chlorine.
Forming
Cotton tips are formed onto sticks on our automated line.
Packing
Sealed in hygienic jars and pouches, microbiologically checked.
Why hydrogen peroxide, not chlorine
Raw cotton has to be whitened before it touches skin. Many producers use chlorine. We use hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), which breaks down into water and oxygen.
The result is pure white cotton with no chlorine left in the tip — which is why our labels say "chlorine-free".
