Suprem Form Regular Plus 1570ml 4 Packs Per Carton
Period pads pose minimal PFAS risk. Standard cellulose core is lower concern.
Lille Suprem Form is a conventional menstrual product with cellulose absorbent core and polypropylene layers. No known PFAS-prone treatments typical in period care; lower concern category.

No PFAS disclosure
No public statement about PFAS in this product.
The full breakdown
What it's made of and why it matters
Suprem Form Regular Plus uses a typical three-layer construction: polypropylene nonwoven outer layers (for moisture barrier and comfort), a cellulose-based absorbent core mixed with superabsorbent polymer (SAP, usually sodium polyacrylate), and a backing layer. Cellulose and SAP have decades of safety history in period products with no established systemic toxicity concerns at normal use. Polypropylene nonwoven is inert under the mild, non-heated conditions of wear.
The brand's record and disclosure
Lille is a European-market period-care brand with minimal public disclosure specifically addressing chemical safety, ingredient transparency, or third-party testing. No major recalls, regulatory warnings, or independently verified contamination incidents are on record for Lille period products. The brand does not publicly claim organic, hypoallergenic, or toxin-free credentials that would require substantiation, positioning it as a conventional mass-market offering.
How it compares in its category
Suprem Form Regular Plus sits in the standard commercial period-pad segment, materially equivalent to leading brands in absorbent-core composition (cellulose + SAP) and nonwoven construction. It offers no claimed safety differentiation compared to mainstream alternatives; cost and availability are primary competitive factors. Products marketed as 'organic,' 'chemical-free,' or with certified testing carry higher transparency but not definitively superior safety in toxicological terms.
If you buy it
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent moisture absorption before use. Replace pads every 4-8 hours depending on flow to minimize bacterial growth and odor, particularly important in warm or humid conditions. Discard any pads that show visible discoloration, odor, or packaging damage. If you experience persistent irritation, dermatitis, or unusual odor, discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider; individual sensitivity to nonwoven materials or SAP, while rare, can occur.
Beyond PFAS: other things we checked
Established hazard classes for this product type, assessed from public information. These never change the PFAS grade; a Likely flag caps the Verdict at “Buy with care.”
Superabsorbent polymer (SAP) skin contact and retention
SAP has been used in period pads globally for decades. No established link between SAP and systemic toxicity, reproductive harm, or cancer at normal exposure levels. Theoretical concern about polymer particles remaining in the vaginal tract is not supported by epidemiological evidence.
Nonwoven polypropylene surface irritation
Polypropylene nonwoven is chemically stable, but individual skin sensitivity to textile friction, dyes, or residual manufacturing chemicals is possible. Irritation risk is low for most users but may manifest as localized redness or itching in sensitive individuals; this is not specific to Lille products.
Chlorine bleaching residues in cellulose core
Cellulose pulp used in absorbent cores is typically bleached during production. While chlorine residues are reduced to trace levels in finished products, Lille does not publish bleach-residue testing data or specify elemental chlorine-free (ECF) or totally chlorine-free (TCF) processing.
Dyes or optical brighteners in outer nonwoven
Nonwoven outer layers may contain colorants or fluorescent brightening agents for aesthetic purposes. No recalls or adverse events specific to Lille products attributable to dye contact have been reported; direct skin contact duration is brief.
Adhesive or coating leachables from backing
Backing adhesives and film coatings must be skin-safe and dermatologically tested under EU and most national regulations. No established safety gaps in this product category; Lille provides no independent adhesive composition or migration testing data.
What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 72% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
