Cheuk Laam Wong has designed Looop Can, a portable menstrual cleaning kit.
Looop Can and Looop Container are innovative portable cleaning kits for reusable menstrual pads that aim to empower menstruators to manage their periods confidently – even in the face of financial constraints, cultural taboos and limited access to sanitation facilities.
By minimising water usage through buoyancy force, it provides effective cleaning with 500ml to 700ml of water.
With affordable injection modelling, the complete set, including polypropylene plastic washing parts and bamboo fabric pads, costs around £3 to £5.
Designed to last up to five years, it meets the needs of refugees awaiting identity approval in camps.
This project has been shortlisted in the product design (health and wellbeing) category of Dezeen Awards 2023.
