DESCRIPTION

Egal’s Pads on a Roll help women manage their periods safely, privately, hygienically and with dignity. Pads on a Roll look like toilet paper, are individually wrapped, and are installed next to toilet paper so the products are available when and where they are needed. Typically period pads or tampons, if they are even stocked, are located in separate vending machines by the sink -- not where you want to find them, and often too late to help.

Egal means equal…all bodily functions should be treated equally.
