NORM. is a Portuguese brand that develops and sells reusable menstrual products, combining comfort, functionality, and design.

The funds raised through this campaign will finance the renovation and adaptation works for the brand’s new store in Porto, its second physical location following the success of the Lisbon shop.

The new NORM. store will serve as a direct touchpoint with the northern community, allowing people to try products, receive personalised guidance, and deepen the brand’s educational work around menstrual health and sustainability.

The store is located on the corner of Rua Formosa and Rua da Alegria, just two minutes from Mercado do Bolhão — an area with high foot traffic, strong tourist presence, and vibrant commerce.

The store project was developed by a decoration and architecture studio in Guimarães, whose team is entirely composed of women who are also customers of the brand. The concept is nearly finalised, currently undergoing final adjustments before construction begins.

The opening of this space will expand the brand’s social and environmental impact, promoting more conscious choices and a more sustainable future.

Qual é o impacto?

Reduction of waste generation: Disposable menstrual products create massive plastic waste, taking 500-800 years to biodegrade. In Europe alone, 50 billion single-use items consumed in 2017 generated about 590.000 tonnes of waste. According to a Norm’s analysis using reusable menstrual underwear instead of single-use pads avoids around two to three kilograms of waste per person per year. A reusable menstrual underwear lasts in average two years, which saves approximately up to six kilos of waste. Sustainable alternatives like menstrual cups and reusable pads are key to reducing this environmental burden. 

Sustainable production and materials: Life cycle analyses demonstrate that reusable solutions significantly reduce waste and carbon footprint compared to single-use products. Most global warming potential stems from manufacturing, with nearly half linked to polyethylene production, a petroleum-based plastic. Products like Norm menstrual pants made from recycled materials, replace hundreds of disposable absorbents annually. Norm estimates to have recovered around 500kg of fabrics since their creation, with 90% of laces recycled in their products. The organization prioritizes local production, with logistic partners that implements carbon footprint compensation, further minimizes emissions and promotes sustainable resource use. Sustainable materials, ecological production methods, and consumer awareness, drive meaningful progress toward fostering long-term sustainable habits.  

Empower menstrual health and sustainability: Norm promotes menstrual health and sustainability by providing breathable, chemical-free products designed to minimize irritation and embrace body inclusivity. Their period panties offer a durable, cost-effective alternative to disposable products, reducing waste, and promoting long-term environmental responsibility. Through initiatives like the First Menstruation Kit for young girls, Norm helps normalize healthy and confident relationships with menstruation.

Sobre o promotor

About
Norm Period, Lda.

A Norm. nasceu da vontade de três amigas - duas irmãs, Patrícia e Cristina, e a Catarina - de mudar a forma como olhamos para a menstruação.

A Patrícia é nutricionista. Sempre se interessou pelo corpo, pelos ciclos, pelo bem-estar de forma holística.

A Cristina é fundadora da Puranna e é quem sabe tudo sobre produção e matérias-primas. Tem anos de experiência na área e uma atenção rigorosa aos detalhes, desde os tecidos até às costuras.

A Catarina é responsável por toda a comunicação e criatividade da NORM. É ela quem garante que cada decisão — de produto, imagem ou mensagem — está alinhada com os valores da marca e com um compromisso real com a sustentabilidade.

O João, marido da Catarina, juntou-se desde o início. É ele quem trata da parte financeira, do design do site e de toda a estrutura que faz a NORM funcionar nos bastidores — com método, clareza e sensibilidade estética.

Mais do que uma marca, a Norm. é o reflexo de experiências reais, de inquietações partilhadas e da vontade de criar algo melhor.

Algo que respeite o corpo, simplifique o cuidado diário e trate a menstruação como aquilo que é: uma parte normal da vida.

Unlike traditional financing, crowdlending doesn't just raise capital, it turns clients into investors and investors into new clients. For a brand like Norm., built around community and trust, I can't think of a better way to grow.
