Startups
Nua was founded on a dream to transform women’s wellness in India. Our story began with a pad. And not just any pad that could be picked off the shelves but one that was truly thought around a woman’s needs. However, we soon realised that the need for safe & effective products went beyond just pads. So, we asked the women in our community to tell us what they were looking for. We believe that our Sanitary Pads, Cramp Comfort (India’s first unique self-heating patch), Foaming Intimate Wash, 1mm Everyday Liners & Uplift (period nutrition drink mix) are made by us but are created by our community of over 4 Lakh women who wanted to start a new and improved wellness journey. As for our dream, it just got bigger from where we started. As of today, we continue to transform the women’s wellness space in India through safe, innovative, inclusive and effective products that are Made Safe Certified and backed by science.
