In 2022 the Spanish government reduced the rate of VAT on all sanitary protection products (sanitary towels, tampons, and menstrual cups, along with condoms and birth control pills) from 10% to 4%. The latter is the VAT rate that is applied to all basic need products.
Organic cotton products are still a niche premium product area within sanitary protection, with these products still mainly only found in specialist channel such as health and beauty specialists and premium supermarkets. Nonetheless, in 2022, Mercadona and Carrefour both launched organic cotton lines of sanitary protection, with these retail giants eyeing an opportunity to satisfy the demand for these products but at a more affordable price point.
Aside from menstrual cups, some other environmentally friendly and reusable options are gaining traction in the market. Brands like Dim and Cohitec are strong players within this area and they are looking to raise awareness of these products while also attempting to remove the stigma around menstruation and the use of reusable products.
