BREAKING: A massive court case has just put the pads and diapers used by millions of Kenyan women and babies under serious scrutiny.
Over 2,800 Kenyans have moved to court against makers of Always pads, Pampers diapers, Huggies diapers, Kotex sanitary pads and related products.
The case targets products linked to Procter & Gamble (Always, Pampers) and Kimberly-Clark (Kotex, Huggies).
The petitioners argue that products marketed as:
“100% cotton”
“pure cotton”
“soft like cotton”
actually contain significant synthetic materials such as polypropylene, polyethylene and other petrochemical-based compounds.
And that is why this case matters.
Millions of Kenyan mothers, women and families buy these products believing they are mainly cotton-based and safer for prolonged contact.
But according to the petitioners, the products may contain far more synthetic material than consumers are led to believe.
The lawsuit also raises concerns about possible long-term exposure to synthetic materials, especially for women and children who use these products regularly.
The petitioners want:
- Full ingredient disclosure
- Independent testing through KEBS
- Removal of allegedly misleading labels
- Compensation for affected consumers
The case, first filed in 2024, has reportedly faced delays and is now before the Court of Appeal under COACAPPL/E012/2026 seeking orders to fast-track it and is being heard this week.
This is a case that could change product labelling in Kenya forever.
But what is already in court may only be part of the story.
I also have additional data and information from tests we conducted on sanitary pads that I will be sharing later.
Some of the findings raised serious questions for us.
So follow me - Sholla Ard.- There is a lot many kenyans still do not know about products they use every month.
