Emanui is the world’s first reusable menstrual cup cleaner & steriliser empowering cup users thanks to a portable, hygienic and comfortable solution. Users can clean their cup at work, on travel with comfort and privacy, like at home.

The goal is to empower everyone who menstruate to use the menstrual cup. Emanui bypasses the main barriers hindering to clean and sterilise the menstrual cup away from home. For example, cleaning in common sink in public toilets (cultural stigma), on travel or doing outdoor activities with limited access to running water. Cleaning in dirty or ill-equipped places, leads to increased health risk, so many users do not use their cup out of home.

We designed Emanui to hygienicly take care of the menstrual cup anywhere its user go. Emanui can also quickly sterilise a cup in a microwave. It is the first product which protects the cup at all stages.

In addition to that, Emanui is designed according to sustainable principles. As a result, it uses at least 2500 % less water than the regular cleaning method. It also can be easily disassembled and recycled.

It is made of medical silicone enabling to store the cup inside for an optimal protection. The light companion is the perfect item during menstruation.

Being a newly launched brand, Emanui contributes to our values to promote healthier and sustainable menstrual solutions, but also to empower menstruating people in feeling safe. With a non-stigmatising designed product, using it challenges the taboo around menstruation by making their owners proud.
