Missoirs: This woman wants to revolutionize the female toilet experience

Lena Olvedi, a 45-year-old woman from Berlin, has invented a urinal for women called the Missoir, which she hopes will reduce long queues for female toilets in public places such as clubs and concert arenas. Her goal is to have a Missoir installed wherever there is a urinal, as she believes this will help achieve equality. The Missoir, made of stainless steel, can be connected to the sewage system and has a splash guard, handrails, and optional partitions.

Olvedi's invention has been tested at festivals and has received positive feedback, with many women expressing gratitude for the convenience it provides. She has started a company, Missoir GmbH, and is now producing the urinals for business-to-business sales, highlighting the cost savings of waterless operation.
