A German company is marketing a mobile toilet for women that fits into their handbags and can be used whenever they are caught short.

Aware that women battle with long queues at public toilets and are loathe to relieve themselves at roadsides like men, the makers of the Ladybag believe they are on to a winner.


The disposable portable lavatory consists of a plastic bag fitted with absorbent polymers that turn urine into a gel.

The size of a chocolate bar when folded, it has a wide opening and can be used squatting, sitting or standing.

The gel can absorb a pint of urine, but in an emergency the bag can hold 2.2 pints.

One-time use

The Ladybag is recommended for one-time use and comes in a bag of three for u00c2u00a411.27 (Rs 784) including packaging.

"The gel prevents unpleasant smells and the bag can be disposed of in rubbish bins.
