ABOUT MAXIM HYGIENE

Maxim Hygiene Products, is a medium size family run company, not a faceless multi-national manufacturing giant. We believe in and support quality products and services, particularly Personal Hygiene Products that offer true health and lifestyle benefits. We value honesty and integrity along with professionalism in all our dealings.

We try to focus on putting something back and helping rather than just looking to the bottom line, that’s why I decided to produce and promote Maxim Body, Earth, and Health products, rather than the products I used to produce and sell in my past businesses; Read more about my story by clicking here.

I encourage all readers to think about this and whether you could also make a worthwhile change in your lifestyle that will help strengthen our world and community. Many people are aware that there needs to be an attitudinal change in the way businesses think and act today. Each one of us can facilitate that change by being proactive. If you feel strongly about something a company is doing, let them know - the good as well as the bad. Write, fax or send an email today, but put it in writing. And if you can help others or organizations in time or money, make that step towards doing something positive today and making our community a better place.

We all have one run through in life and we need to 'make it a good one'. Increase your fun and pleasure quotient, smile and laugh more. Every day, smell a rose, pat a dog, help an older person, call a friend. Give someone praise. Appreciate beauty in nature and show appreciation to everyone around you. Your work world isn't going to fall over because you make time to do these things. Think in a sunny and positive way. Make every day count as a great day.

Our Story

Maxim was developed after twenty-five years of manufacturing and distribution experience in the feminine hygiene industry, held by company Founder, Kenneth Alvandi. His extensive work on every angle of the business, values for producing quality products, and having three very special women in his life (his wife and two daughters), led him to his vision of taking his years of experience 'to the max' by creating safer and more natural products for women. 

Inspired by her father’s vision, Rebecca teamed up with Kenneth for Maxim’s official  launch in 2008, and since then they've been working to change the face and feel of feminine hygiene with Maxim, a Soft, Safe and Natural alternative to conventional feminine hygiene products. 

As a father and daughter team, Kenneth and Rebecca combine Ken’s industry knowledge and Rebecca’s feminine perspective with their homegrown values for the Body, Earth and Health, to provide a range of natural lifestyle products to best suit personal hygienic needs. 

Kenneth and Rebecca plan to make many more exciting advances in expanding the Maxim product line under the Maxim philosophy.

Why Maxim?

Ever think about the content of your most intimate products?...Maxim did.

Feeling itchy or uncomfortable down there?...Maxim can help. 

Maxim is a Softer, Safer and Natural Alternative to Standard Conventional Feminine Hygiene Products.
Maxim products replace harsh chemical ingredients found in your every day products with the beneficial qualities of organic and natural cotton. In doing so, Maxim products address and resolve major health and environmental concerns associated with the use and production of conventional feminine hygiene and cotton products.

Maxim Product Benefits & Features:

• Made with 100% Certified Organic and Natural Cotton - A more naturally breathable fiber that’s better for your Body, Earth and Health.
• Chlorine/Dioxin Free - Keeping carcinogens away from your most intimate body parts.
• Synthetic Free - For a Softer, Non-Irritable, and Plastic-less feel. 
• Wood Fluff Pulp Free - More Breathable and Absorbent & Uniquely Saving Trees.
• Hypoallergenic/Irritation Free - No more rashes, even for those with the most sensitive skin.
• Eco-Friendly & User-Friendly Too! - Maintaining product performance while keeping the environment safe.

Other Brands: What looks like Cotton in other Feminine Hygiene and Cosmetic Puff Products, is not really 100% Cotton. It is usually a blend of Wood Fluff Pulp and Synthetics, like Rayon/Viscose. These cotton alternatives are not as natural, soft on the body, or environmentally friendly as cotton itself.  

Maxim products are made with 100% Certified Organic and Natural Cotton. Maxim is the only 100% Cotton-Based hygiene line on the market. Cotton’s natural breathable quality helps prevent the risk of Irritation and makes it Softer on the Body and Better for the Earth.

Maxim also uses Organic Cotton, the purest form of cotton. Organic cotton is grown without the use of Pesticides, Fungicides, Herbicides, Sewage Sludge, Irradiation or Genetic Engineering. Instead, Organic Farmers use natural alternative methods and tools that help enhance soil quality and biodiversity and protect the air and water on which we depend. Who wouldn’t prefer their most intimate products to be made from only all organic and natural methods?…all while protecting the air and water we depend on!

Why MaxiM? CHLORINE/DIOXINE FREE. 

Other Brands: Use Chlorine to bleach the raw materials contained in standard feminine hygiene products. The purpose of bleaching is to disinfect and whiten the color of these materials. Dioxin is a chemical substance or resulting residue of the Chlorine bleaching process. It can stay within the fluff fibers of the product materials that come in contact with your body, leading to prolonged exposure to this toxic carcinogen (cancer-causing substance).

Maxim products are bleached through a safer process which uses Hydrogen-Peroxide, a natural and safe alternative to Chlorine.

WHY MAXIM? Synthetic Free. 

Other Brands: Use Synthetics, man made chemically composed versions of natural materials, like cotton. When synthetics come in contact with the body they can create unfavorable conditions leading to allergy, irritation, discomfort, and even that slight discomfort you may have experienced recently with your conventional products.

Maxim products are made with 100% Pure Organic and Natural Cotton, leaving no trace of synthetics touching the body. Unlike synthetics, only the natural breathable qualities of 100% cotton can reduce the risk of irritation and make a softer feeling product. 

Also, cotton’s entire product life cycle, being renewable and biodegradable, makes it one of the most environmentally-oriented fibers. Compare that to most synthetic, or chemical fibers, which are petroleum based, either made from nonrenewable resources, or less renewable, like tree-based wood fluff pulp. 

Other Brands: Use Wood Fluff Pulp for the absorbent core material in sanitary pads. Wood Fluff Pulp is a tree byproduct. Natural forests are being abused and destroyed in the process of obtaining Wood Fluff Pulp.

Maxim sanitary pads’ absorbent cores are made of 100% Natural Cotton instead of Wood Fluff Pulp because Cotton is more waste efficient, easily cultivated and its production has less of an overall negative impact on the natural environment. Cotton is a more renewable crop that can be harvested once a year, whereas trees take 6 – 12 years to grow. Also, once the trees are harvested and cut down, they go through a very harsh chemical treatment in order to break them down in to the cotton-like and looking absorbent core you’re used to seeing in other pads. Do not be fooled - even though it looks like cotton, it might not actually be cotton. 

WhY MAXIM? Hypoallergenic/Irritation Free. 

Other Brands: Contain Synthetics and other Irritants, such as Fragrances, which are not natural and can cause irritation and discomfort. The plastics, viscose, wood fluff pulp, perfume, super-absorbents and other petro-chemical fillers found in standard feminine hygiene products creates what’s called a “heat-dampness micro-climate” in the body, which is an ideal environment for encouraging the growth of bacteria, fungi and other irritation-causing subjects.

Maxim uses natural materials, like cotton and eliminates irritable materials, like Synthetics and Fragrances, to make sure all Maxim products are Hypoallergenic and 100% Irritation Free. Some women who experience vaginal irritations on a regular basis, especially around the time of their menstrual cycle, might not be aware that the source of irritation can be coming from the use of conventional products that are made with irritating materials. Women who suffer from vulva-vaginal irritations when using conventional feminine hygiene products, find relief in Maxim products after using them for only a short period of time. Unique to Maxim Only

WhY MAXIM?  Eco-FriendlY & uSER-FRIENDLY Too! 

Other Brands: May be meeting your personal needs, but what about the needs of the environment? Plastic and Synthetics found in conventional products are a substantial source of waste clogging up our landfills, especially with the new popularity of plastic applicator tampons.  Billions of tampons, applicators and pads end up in landfills every year, taking years to decompose.

Maxim Products provide the same leak-resistant comfort of other leading tampons and pads, but only Maxim uses the naturally safe characteristics described above. In addition, Maxim tampons are biodegradable, designed to compost quickly and safely - that means less waste! Also, Maxim feminine hygiene products are packed in Recycled or Recyclable Cardboard Packaging, as opposed to plastic poly bags. Just because they're eco-friendly doesn't mean they can't be user-friendly to meet your personal hygiene needs!

 So whether your primary concern is personal protection and well-being, or protecting trees and our overall environment, Maxim makes products that keep you assured you’re taking better care of yourself and the world while having less of a negative impact on the planet.
