No hassle, just access! Moreover, you show both students and teachers that you take gender equality seriously in your facilities. After all, everyone has the right to education on equal terms, regardless of the day of the month?

Get involved and change the school environment, one period product at a time

Some schools today offer menstrual products, but sometimes through the school nurse, the office, or the staff room. To obtain a menstrual product, the student needs to ask an adult for help, a situation many associate with stress and discomfort.

With Herbox, you can install a dispenser directly in the student restroom which avoids both questions and shame. We believe in accessibility, and that menstrual products should be available where students actually need them - in the restroom.

 

when menstrual products are available where they are needed:

Stress and absenteeism reduces

Students' right to health is strengthened

You are taking a step for equality and inclusion

Customize your own menstrual product solution and we'll take care of the rest!

Which combination suits your school best? Tampons and pads? Panty liners and pads? Herbox offers several models that are equally easy to use and just as gentle on both the body and the environment.

"Free menstrual products are a right, not a luxury"

For us, it is a given to offer our students free menstrual products. We care about a school environment that should be safe for everyone, where access to free menstrual products is a right, not a luxury.

Herbox's seamless solution along with ecological menstrual products made the choice of them as a provider feel perfect. With the knowledge that one percent of their profits goes to the women's rights organization Kvinna till Kvinna, we are also contributing to making a difference even outside Sweden's borders.

Jenny Kämpe, student health manager

Period at school is still a problem. Herbox is part of the solution!

Missed classes:

  • 2 out of 3 students have been surprised by their period at school without access to protection

Time loss & absence:

  • Students go home or leave school to buy menstrual products

Stress & stigma:

  • 40% are negatively affected in their mental well-being by their period

Economic inequality:

  • Not all students can afford menstrual products, which creates both shame and exclusion.

Herbox is a concrete measure to create safety and equality, for real.

How Herbox Improves the School Environment

Herbox makes a difference in small ways with a big impact! Non-technical dispensers with a delay reduce waste and provide your students with access to safe, ecological menstrual products where they are truly needed.

We are on a good path to ensure safety for all students, join thousands of other schools and offer free menstrual products in the restrooms!

Organic period pads! Better for the body, better for the environment

For us, sustainability is not an option, it is a given. That’s why we offer schools a solution that is both practical and well thought out, all the way from product to replenishment!

We exclusively work with menstrual products made from 100% organic cotton, completely free from plastic, perfume, and chemicals. Our dispensers are manufactured in Sweden and are available in recycled materials.

All of our dispensers are also equipped with a smart, mechanical time delay that reduces waste and prevents anyone from taking more products than necessary.

You choose how your solution should look: model, color, number of machines, and what mix of menstrual products you would like. Replenishment occurs every six months, fully tailored to your needs. No waste, no hassle!
