Development of Equipment and Process for Compostable Menstrual Pads
EF 2023-24 · 2023-05-08
Résumé
Aruna’s goal is revolutionizing menstrual products, making them better for the body and the planet. To do that we will develop a local micro-manufacturing facility in Nova Scotia, that will encompass fiber extraction, non-woven development, and pad conversion. This project will allow Aruna to move from small lab scale equipment, into a pilot scale – where we can research, develop and test larger scale technology and demonstrate the feasibility of local micro-manufacturing of compostable menstrual products.

Description (French)
L'objectif d'Aruna est de révolutionner les produits menstruels, en les rendant meilleurs pour le corps et la planète. Pour ce faire, nous allons développer une installation de microfabrication locale en Nouvelle-Écosse, qui englobera l'extraction de fibres, le développement de non-tissés et la conversion de serviettes hygiéniques. Ce projet permettra à Aruna de passer d'un petit équipement de laboratoire à une échelle pilote - où nous pourrons faire de la recherche, développer et tester une technologie à plus grande échelle et démontrer la faisabilité d'une microfabrication locale de produits menstruels compostables.
