PLA+PBAT Film for Compostable Sanitary Pads Manufacturer| YiTo Pack
Looking for PLA+PBAT film alternatives for sanitary pad backsheets and individual wrappers?
Conventional sanitary pads commonly use PE-based films for the leak-resistant backsheet and individual wrapper. For feminine hygiene manufacturers seeking alternative materials, YiTo Pack supplies PLA+PBAT films developed for these two key applications.
Our PLA+PBAT backsheet film provides a flexible, leak-resistant layer designed to help protect against moisture transfer, while printable PLA+PBAT wrapper film can be used for individual sanitary pad packaging.
Film specifications can be customised according to the customer’s converting and packing requirements, including thickness, width, roll dimensions and printing. YiTo Pack works with sanitary pad manufacturers, feminine care brands and hygiene-product converters that are evaluating alternatives to conventional PE films.
Why Choose YiTo Pack's Biodegradable Sanitary Pads?
YiTo Pack focuses on PLA+PBAT film solutions for sanitary pad backsheets and individual wrappers, providing feminine hygiene manufacturers with an alternative to conventional PE film.
Selected PLA+PBAT film grades are available with EN 13432 industrial-compostability documentation, together with applicable material-safety and restricted-substance test reports. Third-party testing can also be arranged according to project and destination-market requirements.
Beyond material supply, YiTo Pack supports custom film development, including thickness, width, roll dimensions, printing and packaging format. This allows sanitary pad manufacturers to evaluate PLA+PBAT film within their existing converting and packing processes without changing the complete sanitary pad structure.

FAQ
Q1: Which sanitary pad size should I choose?
Choose 210 mm for light daytime flow and 240–245 mm for regular daytime protection. The 280–290 mm formats provide longer daytime coverage, while 320–360 mm pads are designed for nighttime or heavier flow. Select 400–420 mm for maximum overnight coverage.
Q2: How thin are the sanitary pads?
Available structures range from approximately 1.0 to 4.0 mm. Ultra-thin daytime pads usually use a lighter airlaid or cellulose/SAP core, while nighttime pads use a longer and wider absorbent structure. The final thickness depends on the required absorbency level and core design.
Q3: Which parts of the sanitary pad can use PLA+PBAT materials?
PLA+PBAT materials can be applied to three key components: the skin-contact topsheet, leak-resistant backsheet and individual wrapper. Buyers can select all three components or use PLA+PBAT only in specific layers. The absorbent core can use cellulose, airlaid paper or a cellulose/SAP blend.
Q4: What can be customised?
Sanitary pad lengths can be customised from 210 mm to 420 mm. Buyers can also customise the topsheet, absorbent core, backsheet, wing shape, adhesive pattern, release paper, individual wrapper and retail box. Standard retail packs range from 6 to 30 pieces.
Q5: Can YiTo Pack offer exclusive products?
Channel, territory or SKU exclusivity can be discussed for qualified projects. Agreements are based on annual purchasing volume, development investment and NDA terms. Exclusive rights are confirmed through a separate written agreement.
