Jade & Pearl, Inc. is an ever-evolving company that creates unique natural products that are reusable, recyclable and sustainable. The company was created from a need to educate people about alternative solutions to conventional hygiene products. In 1974, Gloria Starita, President, CEO and founder of this pioneering natural health company, launched a unique feminine hygiene product called Sea Pearls Sea Sponge Tampons, long before the harmful carcinogenic effects of dioxin, synthetic fibers and toxic shock syndrome were understood. For the past thirty years, Sea Pearls have been sold to hundreds of thousands of women around the world.
