Our Founder
Crimson Organic was created by Vicki Scott through her desire to offer busy women a better, easier way to minimise the chance of being “caught out”. While juggling her job as a lawyer with the demands of family life and volunteer work, she decided there had to be a smarter way to access and purchase period care that ensured supplies when she needed them.
Being a lawyer, Vicki did her homework very, very thoroughly. And she was dismayed by her findings when she scrutinised the brand of tampons she had used for years and had, worse still, begun buying for her daughter.
Conventional tampon brands contain chemicals, toxins, pesticides and synthetics such as viscose, rayon and plastic. She learned they can place women’s health at risk and damage our environment. This propelled her onto another quest; to find the safest tampon available. The choice was obvious; 100% pure certified organic cotton tampons.
Crimson Organic tampons contain nothing else. They are safer for women and better for the environment. Learn more here
Vicki also saw the opportunity to support girls and women who struggle to access period products. Through her job working with displaced people and vulnerable youth, she realised many families in our community cannot afford menstrual products, forcing too many young women to stay home from school every month. Crimson Organic provides an opportunity to help these young women overcome that barrier to both education and menstrual care.
