Padcare Labs Private Limited

PadCare’s holistic and advanced menstrual waste management system substantially reduces the number of deaths and illnesses caused by air, water and soil pollution that may be induced by otherwise buried or burnt pads. It also reduces the chances of infections in women who change pads in public toilets and waste-pickers who collect menstrual waste without a protective gear.

PadCare is an automated hygiene management system that generates harmless, recyclable output out of used sanitary napkins. Through multi-step mechanics, it breaks down absorbent sanitary waste into two by-products – cellulose and plastic.

Improper disposal of diapers poses significant environmental and health risks, as they carry bacteria and viruses, impacting waste pickers and the community. The BIG project of Padcare addresses these challenges by providing a sustainable disposal and recycling solution, essential for the country’s environmental health and sustainable development.
