HOUSEHOLD TOILETS
Providing household toilets for rural India is one of the projects which we have executed for NGO’s and different corporates. We also educate the beneficiaries for usage of toilets and healthy sanitation practices.
PUBLIC TOILETS
We specialize in providing solutions and multiple options for public toilets. We have developed an innovative public restroom concept known as ‘it’ (toilet integration).
‘it’ is made by refurbishing of old scrap buses into luxurious restrooms for women. ‘ti’ has Indian and western toilets, shower cubicle, baby diaper changing station, sanitary pad vending machine & hand wash units.
COMMUNITY TOILETS
We also work in cleaning community toilets. Community toilets are best the alternative where individual household toilets cannot be provided. We not only provide innovative solutions for community toilets but clean and maintain existing community toilets using hi-quality automated cleaning equipment.
SCHOOL SANITATION
Providing a cleaning facility for existing toilets at schools to maintain health and hygiene in the schools is one of the projects we have taken up with government agencies, NGO’s and corporates. Awareness camps for children are conducted under our ‘CREATING EDUCATION, AWARENESS AND OWNERSHIP’ program. In absence of existing restroom units in schools, we have various options to suit the requirement.

To Promote the preventive health care and improving sanitation at school and to create awareness on health and sanitation among students in rural areas.Biotoilet installation in school created awareness in rural areas about sewage water treatment and utilization for irrigation purpose. Biotoilet treated water utilization for irrigation promote the organic farming and nutrient water stability in agriculture land.
Working extensively on each initiative through a 360 degree approach towards sanitation, we were able to improve attendance, health and the overall cognitive development of children. Higher participation and attendance can indirectly result in a better future for them. It is another step towards making an impact in their lives that may one day inspire them in turn to make a difference. These programs reflect our commitment towards society and sustainable growth as a core principle of doing business.
