MUMBAI: The population group among the most affected - mentally and physically - by the global coronavirus pandemic are the elderly. Keeping their essential needs in mind, Nobel Hygiene has partnered with Zoomcar, a car rental service provider to deliver their adult diapers, Friends, directly to their customers. 

This service is currently operating in Mumbai, Bengaluru and Chennai, and will soon be extended to other cities. They have already successfully delivered 200 packages across the three cities via this tie-up. These are orders that people have placed via friendsadultdiaper.in.

The brand is following the government guidelines on safety and hygiene. The delivery car is being sanitized each day before it leaves the premises. Each cash-on-delivery customer is personally given a call, requesting them to make the payment online to support cashless deliveries. Social distancing norms are strictly followed - the driver informs the customer about the delivery and requests them to collect the package from the building watchman.

Nobel Hygiene  VP Kartik Johari said: “In such unprecedented times, we are striving to ensure continuity in the supply of an essential product like ours. Families having an elderly person in the house who suffers from incontinence rely heavily on Adult diapers. We want to ensure that our customers have access to our products during this lockdown situation and our partnership with Zoom car will help in the safe delivery of our products across major cities, making it accessible and convenient for our consumers."

The team will launch this service in other cities in the coming weeks.
