    Sanitation and clean water is the talk of the day and are also the major challenges especially in developing countries. Millions of dollars are spent on high technology or expensive solutions. But one must remember that sometimes simple measures are more effective than these. This is where the Peepoole plays its role. This Swedish company has developed an affordable, biodegradable single use toilet bag which they claim can revolutionize the sanitation needs of the developing countries in the world.


    The Peepoo bag is a slim elongated bag measuring 14 x 38 cms. There is a coating of urea in the inside of the bags. The bag is easy to carry and easy to use. It is manufactured in such a way that is very affordable even to the weakest purchasing power in the world. Well for now Peepoo bag looks like it can serve a vital purpose in creating affordable, clean solutions to the problems of human waste. Also it is wonderful to hear that these bags will be made from 100% renewable materials in the very near future.
