Stigma and social taboos around sanitary napkins cause many rural girls to avoid buying them from male-run shops, leading to unsafe practices like using old rags or ashes, which can cause reproductive tract infections (RTIs). Raising awareness about menstrual hygiene and the use of sanitary products is essential. SAPI VEND Sanitary pad vending machines address this issue by providing easy, discreet access to pads without needing assistance. These machines, available in manual and automatic types, do not require electricity and vary in capacity based on usage. They are beneficial in hostels, schools, offices, and public places like railway stations and shopping centers, helping women manage their periods stress-free.
