When we first started in 1989, we had one focus: healthcare. Starting there taught us how to put ourselves in others' shoes and design to solve their needs. We knew that those same principles could apply to more than just healthcare, so we enhanced our capabilities, expanded into new markets, and grew our reach across the globe. And today, we're still asking: what can we make better next?

To help support our adult incontinence production, we open a manufacturing facility in McElhattan.
We launch our first retail partnership, leveraging our knowledge of absorbent hygiene and SAP to create store-brand tampons.
