During World War I, cotton production on European soil decreased. The decrease in the cotton produced in the soil caused a great crisis. Kimberly Clark researchers discovered that in this crisis environment, a new type of cotton could be produced from cotton: Cellucotton.

Kimberly Clark researchers made ‘Cellucotton’ five times more absorbent than cotton.

Mahler succeeded in his presentation in Washington. The ‘cellucotton’ produced by Kimberly Clark was a discovery large enough to solve the cotton crisis.

According to human history books, African women used cloths and diapers instead of sanitary pads.
