Biodegradable ‘Loo’ Bags

Almost every footloose fond of travel would relate to the challenge of holding a bursting bladder for want of a clean loo ! Why, most even consciously severely cut down the drinking water before embarking on a journey to avoid using filthy loos that threaten to guarantee an infection !

A startup based in Ahmedabad and incubated at Centre for Innovation Incubation and Entrepreneurship (CIIE) of IIM- Ahmedabad found a business opportunity in this problem and has come up with unisex disposable urine bags that would help many ease themselves without the bother of spilling, literally.

The biodegradable bag is lined with special gel that instantly solidifies urine turning it into odour-free non-liquid which can be stored and disposed at one’s convenience. Apart from travelers, it can also be used by the persons with disabilities and those recovering from injuries. Now it has been launched already and available on an online shopping platform.
