HISTORY

1999

Founded in 1999, a privately owned company located in Caesarea, Israel. For the first 2 years the company was under the auspices of the Technological Incubators Infrastructure of the Israeli government (special “Hot-Houses” for selected bio-tech and high tech start-ups).

The vision of the founders was to develop the future panty-liner – that would monitor vaginal health for all women everywhere. We believe that in the very near future, women will refuse to wear any panty-liner which doesn’t incorporate our unique built-in sensing capabilities for monitoring the vaginal natural defense system.
