Aku
Holly is a pattern-maker and sewing machinist and spent many years working in the fashion and film industries. She began supplying friends and family with the cloth pads, as more and more people wanted to stop using throwaway products. She wanted to make a pad that was not only way better for your health and the health of the planet, but user-friendly, comfortable, and easy to care for.
Based out of Leigh, all pads are fully machine washable, and dryable, and each one will last over 5 years, and replace over 120 disposable products.

Danu Natural
The idea for Danu Natural came to Joanna when her youngest daughter started her period and had a less than happy experience in the subsequent months due to the inadequate sanitary products on offer.
Joanna was concerned by the presence of chemicals in supermarkets bought tampons and pads that certain research has suggested an increase in the risk of endometriosis. She wanted to provide her daughter with a natural, non-toxic solution that didn’t cost the earth.
With her 30+ years of design and manufacturing experience, Joanna set about creating a natural sanitary pad that would help women during mensuration, post-pregnancy bleeding, and times of incontinence. After months of testing, she found a fabric combination that offered exceptional comfort and maximum absorbency without the need for man-made fibres.
It didn’t take long for friends and family to express their interest, they too had been looking for a natural alternative. With a focus on family and female empowerment, Danu Natural is committed to contributing to the sustainability of the planet. Danu Natural is proudly plastic-free and made exclusively in New Zealand.

Dirty Hippie
Dawn started making natural personal hygiene products a decade ago when she had trouble finding natural products (at a price she could afford), that were actually natural and worked.
New to motherhood, she was shocked and appalled when she learnt about aluminium in shop-bought deodorant and that it could be passed onto breastfed babies. Her journey progressed and she started making deodorant for her family and friends, first in her kitchen, then their caravan and then a high cabin where she still makes the products today.
Dirty Hippie grew through word of mouth to become the successful small business it is today. Dawn’s objective remains to provide all-natural products that you will love to use, as organic as possible and as affordable as possible.
Dirty Hippie is also passionate about environmentally-friendly packaging, with measures in place to minimise their impact on the environment:
- Lip balms, deodorant and solid moisturiser bars packaged in cardboard tubes
- Kawakawa balm in glass jars with metal lids
- Shampoo & Conditioner bars with only a paper wrapper
- Raw honey is available in glass jars

Dragon Bath Worx
Dragon Bath Worx is owned and operated by Silver, with occasional help from her daughter and husband.
It all started with a quest, a quest to make her sensitive dry and flaky allergy-prone skin better. After many years of struggling with sore and scaly skin and trying many different soaps and lotions.
Silver found some soap at a market that made a difference. Silver’s daughter also tried a soap from the market and found her skin was also improved. However, to their dismay, they discovered the soap they liked so much was not so friendly to the environment.
All the products at Dragon Bath works are made with earth-friendly, sustainable, ethically-sourced quality ingredients. They are free from petroleum products, synthetic detergents, and palm oil.
Their motto is: Kind to your skin and the environment

Earthie provides unique, handmade and all-natural products which are good for you and the environment.

All the products used to create the products are sourced from nature. Clays, spices, botanicals, herbs, seaweed, superfoods, coffee, butter, oils, essential oils, and more. Hand created with love and care to nourish skin and care for the largest organ. Without the use of artificial colors, synthetic fragrances, and damaging chemicals. Palm oil-free, as while this provides hardness in soap, it’s destroying the wildlife environment and displacing villagers.
