In the first phase of the Ujjwala Sanitary Napkin initiative, around 100 local
manufacturing units will be set up by oil marketing companies at Common Service Centres (CSCs) across 93 blocks in all 30 districts of Odisha.
CSCs are facilities set up to deliver the Central government’s e-services in rural and
remote locations.
The cost of setting up each manufacturing unit is expected to be Rs 2.94 crores, and the sanitary napkins will be priced at Rs 40 per pack of eight pads.

The CSCs are also being provided with raw material, enough to make 45,000-50,000
pads. The Ujjwala pads will be made of virgin wood pulp sheet, non-woven white sheet and a gel sheet which are all biodegradable in nature and will leave minimal carbon footprint.
Each manufacturing unit will employ five or six Ujjwala beneficiaries with an aim to
provide employment to nearly 600 women across all districts.
The women will first receive training in manufacturing and sale of sanitary napkins.
