Why We Started BAM – And What We Stand For

Why We Started BAM – And What We Stand For

Organic period care, without the fuss.

At BAM, we believe that period products should be held to the same standards as everything else you put on or in your body. No hidden ingredients. No plastic packaging. No perfumes pretending to be “fresh.” Just clean, high-performance period care that does what it’s supposed to—and feels good while doing it.

That’s why we started BAM.

From frustration to action

Like many others, we were frustrated by what was available on the shelves: products packed with plastic, synthetic fibers, fragrances, and vague claims. We couldn’t find anything that was both clean and functional—and didn’t look like a medical supply.

So we created it.

BAM was founded by two women— Penny Parnevik and Filippa Lagerstedt —both mothers, both tired of compromising. We wanted period products that felt better, looked better, and performed better—for our bodies and for the planet.

What makes BAM different?

We’ve stripped period care down to the essentials—and elevated it.

  • Tampons made from 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton.

  • Pads and liners made from OEKO-TEX® and FSC®-certified bamboo.

  • No plastic where it doesn’t belong.

  • No added fragrances or dyes.

  • Fully biodegradable and responsibly packaged.

And because we know life is busy, we deliver everything right to your door once a month. With flexible subscriptions that you can pause, skip, or cancel at any time.

Our promise

Our mission is simple: better essentials for your period. Transparent materials. Minimal waste. Real comfort.
Because period care shouldn’t be an afterthought. It should be the norm.
