OiTr Installed at Shonan Kamakura Medical University to Create a Campus Where Students Can Learn with Peace of Mind

Oitr Co., Ltd., which operates 'OiTr,' Japan's first service to provide sanitary napkins for free in female restroom stalls at commercial facilities, transportation hubs, public spaces, offices, and schools, has installed the service at Shonan Kamakura Medical University (Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture). The service began on May 25, 2026, as part of the company's mission to create a society where sanitary products are as accessible as toilet paper.

New Installation Facility - Facility Name: Shonan Kamakura Medical University - Location: 1195-3 Yamazaki, Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture - Website: https://www.sku.ac.jp/ - Service Start Date: May 25, 2026 - Number of Units: 8

Comment from Shonan Kamakura Medical University The student council requested the installation during a meeting with the board chair and president. The university decided to proceed to support female students. While the health office already distributes sanitary products, it is not always effective in emergencies. Addressing 'period poverty,' the university believes that providing access to sanitary products in restroom stalls will reduce psychological and economic burdens, contributing to a secure learning environment. With the support of the student council, the service launched on May 25, 2026.
