The spokesperson of Makerere College of Engineering, Design, Art and Technology, Better Kyakuwa tells this reporter that the pads they have made are of good quality and that the Uganda National Bureau of Standards has already certified the quality.

The mak pads have been made in two types: One for bed time (when a woman has just delivered). The one for bed time are large. The second type is general pads. Kyakuwa says the pads are on the market and many of the customers have confirmed their goodness.

Although the Mak pads were launched recently, Kyakuwa says that they have officially distributed them to most shops in Kampala business centre today.
