Team Sirona, makers of PeeBuddy that has launched menstrual cup wash and menstrual cup sterilizer to upgrade menstrual hygiene routine in a sustainable manner and a hassle-free practice. The menstrual cup wash cleanses the cup without leaving any residue or irritants .
The pandemic accompanied by lockdown, has brought the issue of climate change once again into the limelight. While every person has cherished cleaner air and the return of nature to her better self, the conversation around sustainable menstruation solutions is also picking pace. With many women choosing reusable menstrual solutions, the need to upgrade hygiene practices for the same has emerged.
Thus, Team Sirona, makers of PeeBuddy– which already offers menstrual cups in three sizes- has launched cup sanitation solutions: Sirona Menstrual Cup Wash and Siorna Menstrual Cup Sterilizer. The cup wash, specifically formulated with mild surfactants, sanitizes the cup thoroughly. Being free of formaldehyde, paraben and sulphates, it doesn’t leave any residue or irritants and thus keeps the silicone of the cup from degrading.
Sirona Menstrual Cup Sterilizer is a perfect disinfection solution, without the usual hassles of boiling for sterilizing a cup. It effectively kills 99.9% germs in 3 minutes, is BPA-free (thus safe to use) and comes with an auto-power off feature, which makes it easy to use. This should be used before and after each period cycle, leaving the cup clean and ready to be stored safely till the next cycle. Sirona Menstrual Cup Wash can be used during period days to clean the cup before each insertion.
Commenting on the launch, Deep Bajaj, Founder of Sirona says, “The idea is to reduce the hassles of maintaining menstrual cup hygiene and optimise the safety of (re)using one. Sirona menstrual cup wash and sterilizer effectively cut out the hassles and germs, making period hygiene safe and convenient for cup users. With this launch, Sirona is also looking at encouraging more people to switch to cups, which are not only a healthier and more sustainable option, but now also a highly safe and convenient one.”
Dr Diksha S Chadha, Medical Director at Sirona adds “Wherever we have conducted workshops and health education sessions to help women learn how to use menstrual cups, we have observed that many women have apprehensions about keeping the cup free of infection causing-microbes. Although boiling the cup before each cycle is enough to sterilise it, many women prefer not to use kitchen utensils for the process. The menstrual cup steriliser is an electronic device that uses the process of steam sterilisation for disinfecting the cup. Since it uses just about a teaspoon of water (5 ml) and takes 3 minutes to sterilise the cup, it saves both water and fuel. The cup must be placed upside down on the platform given in the device to ensure complete disinfection”
The launch comes as a much-needed upgrade in menstrual hygiene management. It can play a major role in encouraging women to make the choice of shifting from the pollution-causing pads to the eco-friendly cups.
