Low construction and maintenance costs waterless urinals
Traditional urinals not only consume between 1 and 4 litres of water per use, but also need a lot of energy during production, use and transportation. URIMAT waterless urinals reduce the water consumption by 100% and use no energy during operation. Thanks its low weight compared to other urinals, URIMAT plastic waterless urinal range reduces energy consumption during transportation by around 80%.The Solution relies on high-tech plastic or ceramic urinals with an integrated and patented odour-trap (MB-ActiveTrap) which assures that urine is transferred without water to the wastewater pipe network without any odour nuisance for users. The rimless urinal bowl with water-repellent surface assures smooth transfer to the wastewater system and makes cleaning easier compared to water-flushed systems. First-class customer service is provided by the manufacturer and their distributors.
