WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

At SATO, we believe everyone deserves access to safe and dignified sanitation and hygiene, and Bangladesh is standing proof of how much of an impact our products can make. It was in Bangladesh that the SATO products were developed and first trialed in 2012. Since then, we have been applying the lessons learnt in Bangladesh to expand our offering and reach across the world. Our success in the country is directly linked to our amazing partners:

  • Our association with RFL plastics as manufacturer and distributor has provided access to SATO products to even the remotest parts of Bangladesh.
  • Partnering with iDE, we have created sustainable demand through latrine producer training, leveraging SMEs, and created a sustainable sanitation economy that is inclusive of women who are trained to become sales agents.
  • Our extended portfolio, especially the SATO Tap that has been successfully placed in schools across Bangladesh.
  • Our products are available to buy online via Othoba.
