We Use Latex-Free Rubber For You to Have That Itch-Free Day
When people with latex allergy come into direct contact with latex, allergic reactions, either abrupt or delayed, usually ensue.
Exposure to this type of harmful material brings several troublesome symptoms to those who are hypersensitive to latex. In fact, a simple balloon, a pair of gloves, or even a condom could all put them in an irritating condition, or worse, life-threatening situations. And this is the danger that we deliberately work hard to avoid.
Since its formation more than 10 years ago, Cottonique already recognized the perils of incorporating latex materials into its products, particularly underwear. Although elastics used in waistbands and leg openings assure a snug fit down there, the materials used also leads to irritations and trigger allergic reactions without you knowing it.
In Cottonique, we believe that the best way to avoid the disturbing allergic reactions is to make use of latex-free elastic. That's mainly the reason why we stay ahead of the pack with our latex-free white rubber tape. You may download our Latex-Free Rubber Certification for more details.
This latex-free elastic, made with one-third the thickness of a standard rubber, achieves that stretchable feel and ensures an itch-free experience. It presents a much higher endurance and quality elasticity without any of the harmful stuff.
From farms to production facilities, Cottonique guarantees to develop hypoallergenic products with function and fit, entirely free from allergens and other chemical compounds detrimental to people with sensitive skin.
Because they tell it better than us, here's what our customers have to say:

These garments wash well and retain their shape, I am very grateful to this company for manufacturing such a quality product!” — Mimi
