Privacy and dignity
A pad is available in the same private space where it is used. No leaving the stall, no public search, and no need to ask someone else.
Essential restroom infrastructure
Period care belongs where it’s needed: inside the stall.
Pads on a Roll makes period products easy to access and straightforward to stock—so schools, workplaces, venues, airports, healthcare facilities, and public spaces can treat pads as essential restroom supplies.
The placement problem
Available somewhere is not the same as available when needed.
People usually look for a period product after they already need one. When products sit outside the stall—or behind a vending-machine interaction—the facility creates avoidable friction at a private, time-sensitive moment.
- Leaving the stall to search elsewhere in the restroom
- Finding a legacy dispenser empty, broken, or payment-dependent
- Asking another person for help during a private moment
- Discovering that products are available somewhere—but not where they are needed
The in-stall difference
Make pads as natural to access as toilet paper.
Pads on a Roll moves period care to the point of use. Individually wrapped pads dispense one at a time from a compact roll-based system, giving facilities a clear placement and replenishment model.
Close to where the product is used
Private, direct access inside the stall
A familiar restroom-supply format for facility teams
Built for the whole restroom experience
Designed for people. Designed for facilities.
The strongest period-care program solves both sides of the equation: dignified access for the person using the restroom and a repeatable operating model for the team maintaining it.
For people
Access within reach
In-stall placement reduces the need to stand, move to another area, or navigate the restroom to find a product—an important distinction for accessible facilities.
A better everyday experience
Facilities can anticipate an ordinary human need for employees, students, travelers, patients, fans, visitors, and guests.
For facilities
One-at-a-time dispensing
Individually wrapped pads feed from a familiar roll-based system, supporting consistent access without relying on a vending-machine interaction.
A familiar stocking model
Pads become part of the restroom supply routine: placed in each selected stall and replenished by the team already servicing the space.
Repeatable across locations
The same in-stall standard can support a focused pilot, one venue, a multi-site organization, or a distributor-led restroom program.
Verified rollout evidence
In-stall period care is already working across real environments.
These examples document where organizations have installed or trialed the system. They quantify implementation—not unverified claims about usage, satisfaction, attendance, or cost savings.

dispensers across six airports
dnata UK installed Pads on a Roll across six airports as part of its Menstruation to Menopause campaign. The published account describes the program as an employee-inclusion rollout, not an outcome study.

East London NHS Foundation Trust announced a trial spanning 11 sites and 165 toilet cubicles. The installation scale is verified; longer-term usage and expansion outcomes remain to be confirmed.

Public visitor reactions at Lord’s Cricket Ground and Denver International Airport reinforce a simple experience truth: facilities make a visible impression when they anticipate a basic need. This page links to those reactions rather than reproducing their images or substantial quoted text.
Choose the right rollout model
Start at the scale that fits your facility.
You do not need a perfect systemwide count to begin. Start with the facility type, number of locations, and an approximate stall range; the plan can become more precise from there.
01
Pilot
Choose a representative set of restrooms, assign replenishment ownership, and learn from real use before deciding how to expand.
02
Single facility
Create one consistent standard across a school, workplace, venue, airport terminal, healthcare facility, or public building.
03
Multi-site organization
Plan by location, restroom, and stall so product placement and stocking stay repeatable across the portfolio.
04
Service or distributor program
Add in-stall period care to an existing facility-supply, janitorial, or ever-stocked restroom-service conversation.
Frequently asked questions
In-stall period products, explained.
What are in-stall period products?+
In-stall period products are pads or tampons placed inside the toilet stall, close to where they are used. This removes the need to leave the stall, search elsewhere in the restroom, or ask another person for help.
Why should period products be placed inside the stall?+
Inside-stall placement improves privacy, convenience, and accessibility by making a product available at the point of need. It treats period care like other essential restroom supplies rather than a special request.
How are Pads on a Roll restocked?+
Facilities replace a roll as part of the normal restroom-service routine. Individually wrapped pads dispense one at a time from the roll-based system. Rollout planning should assign clear replenishment ownership by location or service team.
How many pads fit on a roll?+
The standard Pads on a Roll SKU #2101 contains 40 individually wrapped pads. The separate plant-based SKU #2107 contains 30 pads. Plant-based and biodegradability language applies only to the relevant SKU.
Can Pads on a Roll support multiple locations?+
Yes. Publicly announced examples include dnata UK's six-airport rollout and East London NHS Foundation Trust's 11-site trial. A multi-site plan should map stalls, stocking responsibility, and expansion criteria before launch.
How does in-stall placement support accessibility?+
It reduces the need to stand, leave the stall, or move to another area to find a product. Nixon Hire has also announced complimentary pads as a standard feature in all of its Wheelchair Access Toilet Units.
Where can Pads on a Roll be installed?+
Existing Egal use cases and partnerships support schools, universities, workplaces, healthcare facilities, airports, stadiums, entertainment venues, libraries, museums, public buildings, and portable sanitation environments.
Can a facility start with a pilot?+
Yes. A pilot can begin with a representative group of restrooms or locations. Facilities can use that period to confirm placement, replenishment ownership, and the right expansion plan without needing exact systemwide stall counts on day one.
Do all Pads on a Roll use the same materials?+
No. The standard #2101 and plant-based #2107 are distinct products. Product selection and sustainability language should always name the applicable SKU.
