Our Story
At FabLittleBag, we were born out of a transformative experience. It all began with a rather unpleasant 'hand bag smuggle' incident when our CEO found herself in a friend's restroom with no bin in sight. It was a small, everyday predicament that led us to an extraordinary idea.
As we explored the issue further, we delved into the shocking reality of what happens when tampons and pads are flushed down toilets. The more we uncovered, the more horrified we became at the widespread impact – clogged pipes, overflowing sewage systems, polluted rivers, and the dire threat to our beloved oceans. It was a moment of reckoning, a moment that demanded action.
Our journey to create FabLittleBag was far from smooth sailing. It was filled with challenges, setbacks, and moments of doubt. Yet, our unwavering determination and passion for the cause pushed us forward. We wholeheartedly believed in the concept of FabLittleBag as a simple yet effective solution that could revolutionise the way we handle period product disposal.
Today, when we receive heartwarming emails and read reviews from people who have used FabLittleBag, we are filled with pride and a profound sense of achievement. Hearing about the positive difference it makes in the lives of individuals and in our environment is incredibly gratifying. It's a testimony to the power of one idea and our commitment to drive change.
FabLittleBag is more than just a product – it's a movement. It's about empowering women and girls to make informed, responsible choices during their menstrual cycles.
By choosing FabLittleBag, you're not just making a purchase; you're becoming a part of a community of environmentally conscious individuals who appreciate the significance of responsible period product disposal. We thank you for being an integral part of our journey and for making a substantial, positive difference with FabLittleBag."
