Features of Products Offered to the Public
TOTO has continued to offer proposals for new public restrooms through product and spatial proposals,
aiming to create clean and pleasant public restroom spaces. Interest in touchless functions for public
spaces has risen with a recent increase in hygiene awareness. Touchless faucets allow for touch-free
hand washing and are a hygienic product that can be used safely. It also contributes towards theconservation of water resources, as the faucet is never accidentally left running.
We were also able to realize a refined design by compactly fitting all EWATER+ functions into the spout
tip, including the compact sensor, LED, and sanitized water spray device.

sharp edges with the top.

■Wall Hung Urinal with Built-in Sensor
We created a clean design, integrating the water spreader and sensor that detects when a person ispresent. Even when using multiple types with different sizes, the upper parts line up, allowing the urinals
to be set up along a straight line and offering a clean look to the space. The inside of the bowl can bechecked easily when in use, and the design makes users stand even closer to the urinal, reducing drips.
The angled surface inside the bowl also reduces splashes and improves hygiene.

meticulously designed with digital modeling to draw attention to linear highlights, combining gentle curves
with sharpness. Along with advanced cleaning features, the shape eliminates unnecessary irregularities
and gaps making it easy to clean.

Tub and Lavatory FeaturesGALALATO used in both tub and lavatory is an artificial marble that offers strength and a beautiful
finish through TOTO's technology. Both a glossy and a matte finish are offered. Combining designconcepts for both tub and lavatory creates a sense of unity in the space.
The tub allows for both stability and a position of low physical stress, as we thoroughly sought after ascientifically-based bathing sensation, and the lavatory was designed for ease of use when handwashing and for prevention of splashes.
