With a focus on providing comfort and protection without compromising health, Nyungu offers patented period products made with safe plant-based ingredients such as pineapple leaves and corn husk fibers. Their name, derived from the Swahili word for pot, symbolizes the womb, highlighting their dedication to providing trusted products for women's well-being.
Not only does Nyungu prioritize the health of its users, but it also strives to make a positive impact on the planet. Their locally produced products are made with simple, plant-based ingredients and are waste-free, contributing to their climate-positive mission. Additionally, Nyungu aims to address the issue of period poverty, with a commitment to donate one pad for every pad sold.
Led by founder Mary Nyaruai, whose personal experiences led her to develop a safe and sustainable range of period products, Nyungu is driven by a passionate team. They are dedicated to advocating for comprehensive menstrual health education and free period products in public institutions, ensuring that women have access to the essential resources they need.
