ONE HUNDRED Restrooms - the Dutch business that developed a new European concept for public washrooms in high traffic locations - has started a collaboration with Dynamic Code for the distribution of self-sampling tests.

This fits with the washroom specialist's model of offering not only hygienic toilets but also health and wellbeing services.

Currently the self-sampling kits are only available to visitors at the Gallerian mall in Stockholm. There, they can buy the five most popular tests for: sexually transmitted diseases, candida and bacterial vaginosis, urinary tract infection and a DNA nutrition test for diet.

Customers can take the test at ONE HUNDRED or at home and send it to the lab where it is analysed. Within a few days they receive the result online, together with a medical recommendation.

The plan is to expand the collaboration to include as many ONE HUNDRED locations across Europe as possible during the coming year.

"We offer the new standard in public restrooms by creating an environment that is more than just toilets," explained Marielle Romeijn, co-founder and chief brand officer at One Hundred Restrooms.

"We want to empower our customers to live a healthy life. Self-sampling tests provide insight and control of your own health. Therefore, Dynamic Code's products fit well into our model, and we are happy to be able to offer them to our visitors."
