Industries we serve
01
Construction
National audits and construction industry reports—including investigations by groups like the BC Building Trades—highlight that inadequate, unsanitary, and missing restroom facilities are widespread hazards in the construction industry. Organizations emphasize that a lack of proper toilets and urinals directly compromises worker health, hygiene, and job satisfaction. Meet these needs head on with the Relief-Kit.Â

Women's ChallengesÂ
"When water, power, and restroom access are unavailable, privacy and sanitation becomes essential to both emergency workers and survivors. The Luke Shadeâ„¢ and Relief-Kitâ„¢ system is designed to provide a portable solution for temporary privacy, urine containment, odor management, and responsible disposal during emergencies, evacuations, and disaster recovery situations."

KIDS
Traveling with kids who have to pee is challenging because interrupted routines and delayed bathroom access increase the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in children. Holding urine prevents the natural flushing of bacteria, while anxiety over unfamiliar, public restrooms often causes kids to "hold it". Heavy traffic caused by accidents, weather, or holiday travel can leave families stranded for extended periods. The kit provides a temporary sanitation option when leaving the vehicle is unsafe or impossible.

Emergency Services
Caregivers of men with incontinence face unique physical, emotional, and practical challenges. The unpredictability of the urine stream leads to extensive cleaning of surrounding environments, intense physical strain from changing and bathing, emotional stress from preserving the individual's dignity. Â The Flow Guide can significantly ease these burdens. Â

Humanitarian Efforts
04
Bathrooms in refugee camps present significant challenges, deeply impacting the health, dignity, and physical safety of displaced populations. These core issues span critical areas of Concern. Humanitarian organizations continue to seek better solutions, such as deploying mobile solar lighting and advocating for structurally safer, family-specific, or accessible waterless toilets. Our Family Emergency Sanitation Relief Kit would meet the stringent demands in these situations
Women typically spend up to twice as long waiting for the restroom as men. To avoid long lines or unsanitary conditions, studies show many women intentionally delay using the restroom. This practice often leads to chronic urinary tract and bladder dysfunctions. Poor restroom availability limits how long women can comfortably participate in many social and sports events. Women represent one of the largest groups that could benefit from a this thoughtfully designed emergency sanitation solution that fits the needs of both men and women.
Flow Guide for Menâ„¢
Is Built for Social Impact
Help Reduce Urinary Retention: Drivers often hold urine for hours to meet delivery deadlines or avoid stopping. Immediate in-cab access allows them to empty their bladder safely, reducing the risk of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) and bladder stretching.
For Truck Drivers
Studies—including population research published in PubMed—indicate that prolonged sitting and infrequent urination cause high rates of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS), such as an overactive bladder, urgency, and incomplete emptying. Truckers reporting difficulty finding restrooms show significantly higher odds of worsening LUTS.Â
An in-cab urinary sanitation system could directly mitigate several major occupational hazards for truckers by eliminating the need to delay urination or use unhygienic facilities.
Help Lower Infection Risks: Holding urine allows bacteria to multiply in the bladder, leading to UTIs and prostatitis. Regular bladder emptying, combined with a sanitary "urine guide" that prevents skin contact with waste, drastically cuts these infection rates.
Whether stuck in traffic or wakening up from a well rested night, our Relief-Kit will provide the relief you need when you need it.
The Relief-Kit allows truckers to pee while sitting in the truck using a urine guide to control urine spray and direction, a urine bag that solidifies the urine and removes the smell in less than sixty seconds. The urine bag itself provides an all in one disposable collection unit.
