Kimberly Clark Costa Rica Ltda

Kimberly Clark Costa Rica Ltda specializes in unscented menstrual pads, which are disposable hygiene products marketed under the Kotex brand. These devices are designed for personal use during menstruation and fall under the category of feminine hygiene products.

The company is based in Costa Rica, but its products are regulated under US medical device standards. This means its devices comply with the requirements set by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), even though the manufacturer operates outside the US.

The company’s devices are listed in the FDA’s Unique Device Identifier (UDI) database. This registry helps track and identify medical devices by assigning a standardized identification number to each product, ensuring traceability and regulatory compliance.

The company’s menstrual pads are classified as FDA Class I medical devices. This classification is typically assigned to low-risk devices that pose minimal potential harm to users, such as disposable hygiene products, and generally require less stringent regulatory oversight.
