Wrapkin

Problem Statement

Hostel residents, particularly women aged 17–30 years, face a lack of proper facilities for the safe and hygienic disposal of menstrual products in common washroom cubicles. This leads to discomfort, health risks, and contributes to unhygienic living conditions due to inadequate sanitation infrastructure.
