Entrepreneur Background
Siddhant Tawarawala is a young entrepreneur from Jalna, Maharashtra — a city known primarily for its steel industries, not its startups. His story is rooted in a deeply personal and universally relatable frustration: the near-impossibility of finding a clean, accessible, and functional public toilet in India. Siddhant used to travel frequently during his college days and consistently experienced the problem of non-availability of clean restrooms. He decided to find a viable solution to this problem after attending a workshop for entrepreneurs during his third year of engineering. In 2017, he launched Peeschute.
The Product / Service
Peeschute makes two complementary products built around the same core technology — a proprietary gel compound that instantly solidifies human urine into an odourless, non-liquid material. Product 1 — Peeschute Bag: A pocket-sized paper bag that turns urine from liquid to solid state. It eliminates the need for water, plumbing maintenance, and building infrastructure. The product is environment-friendly and biodegradable, and is unisex — meaning it can be used by both males and females. Product 2 — Peeschute Baksa: A plug-and-play unisex urinal solution made of recycled plastic panels. A person urinates directly into the Baksa, which acts like a urinal. The solidification technology handles the waste internally, meaning the unit requires no drainage, no plumbing, no sewage connection, and no water supply.
