FACTS ABOUT NAPKIN DESTROYER

Feminine hygiene solution with sanitary napkin destroyer is truly a much talked about innovation in the country. In the recent past, we have heard of hygienic methods of disposing sanitary waste. When mounds of menstrual wastes contribute to the garbage, it pollutes the environment and can also lead to waste related diseases. More than 9000 metric tons of menstrual waste every year is a cause for concern, especially as it is disposed in an unhygienic manner. Imagine the life of the waste pickers in the community, where ‘trash is cash’. They focus on environmental benefits by segregating wastes for recycling purposes and have to face health hazards too. How do we deal with this? With an entire range of non-biodegradable sanitary napkins available in the market, can we ever witness a radical change in the disposal of sanitary wastes?

We need to work towards environmental sustainability. Napkins made out of biodegradable materials should be manufactured which can be easily broken down in the soil within a reasonable period of time, thus making it eco-friendly. There are many NGOs in the city who are manufacturing sanitary napkins made of waste cloth and bamboo pulp but the numbers need to rise. If all napkin manufacturers adopt the eco-friendly perspective, we can surely witness a groundbreaking transformation.

The role of a consumer

Technology is changing the way we see the world. Incinerators for sanitary napkin disposal are a revolutionary innovation which converts waste into energy. The burning of sanitary waste into sterile ash is a hygienic way of waste disposal. Portable napkin incinerators and sanitary pad dispensers are a boon to the school going and working women. As a Significant stride in a developing country like ours, where menstruation is still considered unspeakable, efforts are being taken to create menstrual hygiene by keeping the environment clean and green.

Women can’t believe someone actually thought about this.
