Recently, a blogger launched an online activity,

encouraging girls to measure the length of

their own brand of sanitary napkins.

Many netizens posted that they measured the sanitary napkins they usually use and found that there was a problem of "cutting corners" in the length. The sanitary napkins were marked 245mm on the package, but the actual measured length was 235mm.

Some netizens personally tested 9 sanitary napkin brands and found that the length was not enough. Among them, the maximum deviation without packaging edges (only the cotton core part) was 50mm, which means that a sanitary napkin with a length of 350mm has only the absorbent part. 300mm.

Blogger @a Meng Tai Meng, who has millions of fans, published a review and found that the lengths of many different brands of sanitary napkins were inconsistent with the marked lengths, so he angrily said: All sanitary napkin brands, stop fooling around!

She also found that many brands advertised wider width on the surface, but in fact, the cotton part that actually absorbs water was not widened at all.

In the measurement results of netizens, there is no length difference between the two old models of "babycare" and a sanitary napkin from "Taotao Oxygen Cotton" in the standard length, actual length and cotton length; while the two models of Shulai and Yili The difference between the standard length and the cotton length of a sanitary napkin from Freepoint is 5 cm.

According to Tianyancha, none of the above-mentioned brands have any records of failure in random inspections in recent years.

According to the gb/t 8939-2018 sanitary napkin (panty pad) standard released by the national standard full text disclosure system, the full-length deviation index for sanitary napkins and sanitary napkin pads is "±4%".

After related topics aroused heated discussion, many netizens began to measure the sanitary napkins they purchased. According to the summary of enthusiastic netizens, most brand products have marked length (marked length), actual length (actual length) and cotton length (wadding). length), there is a length difference, and most of them are stuck at the -4% threshold, and there are even shorter ones.

Another blogger with millions of fans, @世书瑶ah, released a video calling on the sanitary napkin industry to establish new standards. She also called on all sanitary napkin brands not to use the lowest standards to treat girls' most important needs.

Many brands responded to

the issue of "cutting corners" on the length of sanitary napkins. Some merchants responded that "the national standard stipulates that the standard value of the full length deviation is ±4."

Shulai customer service responded, "The products have been tested at the factory, and the length meets the standards. It is normal to have deviations." According to the test report issued by it, the total length deviation of the product's test results was "-3", and the individual judgment was "passed" ". The official account of

times Shute responded that "the product length strictly complies with the national standard specification ±4%, within a reasonable error range. The factory will regularly replace the tools used to produce products and strive to reduce deviations. It has expedited the production of new tools and is expected to be in December All products will be replaced with new ones."

abc customer service said that the sanitary napkins produced by the machine will indeed have deviations. A slight deviation is normal and does not constitute cutting corners. An error of 1 to 2 centimeters is a normal error. The size of the ruler may sometimes have errors. If you feel you can't accept it, you don't have to buy it.

Sophie sanitary napkins’ official customer service responded: “The products are produced in strict accordance with the national standard gb/t8939, and the width and length of the products have corresponding production standards. There may be slight differences due to different batch production sites, which is normal The official customer service of

Netizen comments

Regarding the merchant’s response, many netizens expressed doubts: “Why are the lengths found to be too short and not too long, and some deviations even exceed the standard range? "

Taro Head Melon: Then why is it only less but not more? It's quite humorous.

Zouchunna: It floats up and down, why is it only floating down?

Clerk of Shiyi Town: The deviation is 4%, so why is it only less but not more? Yes?

嶲廀掎灋: So many brands are at least 30mm less, and more are 50mm. Being able to control it so accurately, almost every piece is so much less, which shows that the length deviation can be reduced. Other standards stipulate that the deviation is for machinery. There is room for error in this category, but I never expected that it would become a tacit tool used by merchants to cut corners and catch bugs.

Some netizens said that "the side part of the sanitary napkin packaging cannot be used, and the length should be measured according to the actual cotton core." The length is standard, but the length and packaging edges of many sanitary napkins do not meet the standard. "

Big Cat and Little Fish Cake: I used to use 420 to almost reach my waist, but now it can only reach my butt.

Jiji: I said why I used to use 338 and it worked well, but now I have to use 420. It turns out that it Cutting corners.

Xiaoyang: I said why the cotton inside felt shorter, it turned out to be true!
