With a commitment to high quality, innovation, and reliable service for more than 20 years, the company has helped thousands of public and semi-public toilets around the world achieve superior hygiene standards while significantly reducing water consumption. No water costs, no chemicals, and a CO2 neutral production process make URIMAT products a standout choice for those seeking to combine modern design with ecological responsibility. Yes, the concept is as straightforward but impactful as it sounds… touchless usage and sleek styling set the tone for a truly sustainable future.
Key Benefits and Savings
- No water usage – saving at least 100,000 litres of drinking water per urinal each year.
- CO2 reduction – approximately 350 g of CO2 saved per cubic metre of water not consumed.
- Cost-benefit – a rapid ROI (often under 2 years) thanks to significant reductions in water and waste water expenses.
- Lower maintenance – fewer repairs and reduced follow-up costs, with simple, biological cleaning solutions doing the job.
- Hygienic and touchless – ensuring that public and semi-public sanitary facilities remain clean, safe, and user-friendly.
Innovative Product Range
URIMAT’s portfolio is a diverse collection of innovative solutions designed to meet modern sanitary needs. The waterless urinal, with its stylish design and effective no-flush mechanism, offers impressive environmental benefits. Complementing this are products like hand dryers that dry hands in 9-11 seconds, delivering quiet, fast, and environmentally friendly performance. The New FX-M WASHBASIN MODULAR is an all-in-one washbasin unit that is entirely touchless and designed for optimal hygiene in washing stations. In addition, the New ECO CLEANING TAB – the MB-ActiveCleanerTab – stands out as a highly concentrated biological cleaning tab, offering unique advantages by keeping the system clear and odor free. Further enhancing the range, the URIMAT CERAMICC2-CS urinal is a stylish 0-litre model equipped with an automatic cleaning system, while URIMAT CONNECT transforms sanitary areas into dynamic advertising spaces through both static and digital displays (DOOH). Even the urinal partition walls double as a design element, proving that innovation can be both functional and aesthetic.
Technology and Hygiene
Waterless urinals operate with a clever blend of simple mechanics and smart design. These ceramic, stainless steel, or plastic units channel urine via a funnel into an integrated siphon system, where a vertically positioned membrane and biodegradable odor stone work in tandem to trap smells. The rubber membrane opens momentarily as urine enters and then closes airtight to prevent any unwanted odour escape. Not only does this mechanism ensure no unpleasant smells, but it also creates an entirely touch-free experience. Thanks to elements like the integrated MB-ActiveCube, deposits and encrustations are significantly reduced, making maintenance easier and ensuring that hygiene remains impeccable in even the most demanding settings.
Sustainability and Cost Efficiency
The environmental credentials of URIMAT products are as compelling as their functional benefits. No fresh water is consumed, which considerably reduces the environmental burden associated with water production and transportation. In today’s world, where every drop counts, saving precious drinking water is not just smart—it’s essential. Moreover, by eliminating water-based flushing, the cost savings extend well beyond mere consumption. Lower investment costs, reduced maintenance intensity, and a minimized risk of costly repairs underscore the economical benefits of this green technology. With no issues of bacteria buildup on flushing rims or joints, the systems remain hygienically pristine, and biological cleaners perform effectively without interference from urine scale build-up. The system’s ability to collect undiluted urine also opens up avenues for repurposing the liquid as a fertilizer, further emphasizing the efficient cycle of resource use… it’s all about getting the most out of every drop while protecting the environment.
Future Perspectives on Smart Sanitation
In a world increasingly focused on sustainability, URIMAT is not just keeping up—it’s leading the charge. URIMAT has earned its place among the top 5% of the world’s most sustainable companies and is proudly recognized as part of the Solar Impulse Foundation 1000 solutions that are clean, profitable, and protective of the environment. The company’s alignment with ethical practices, carbon-neutral production, and responsible partnerships underscores its commitment to long-term environmental and social stewardship. Public and semi-public facilities now have a reliable and modern solution that guarantees both economical operation and enhanced hygiene, paving the way for a future where sanitation is smarter and greener.
