High-quality manufacturing in Switzerland and Europe
Of course, not all our products are made of stainless steel. Our changing tables and containers, for example, are made of plastics. These are even lighter than stainless steel. And the best part is: we can have many of our products manufactured in Switzerland or at least in Europe! This keeps transport routes short.
Plastics are not sustainable – or are they?
We're not going to lie to you: Of course, plastics aren't sustainable. But there are simply applications that can't be realistically implemented with any other material. That's why we use plastics in our changing tables. We only select plastic compounds that cause the least possible harm to the environment. But even more importantly: The plastics won't harm you. Products and materials must be completely safe for people. In our view, the best possible solution lies in partially recycled materials.
Water resource
The issue of water conservation is ever-present. The pressure is high because water is a very valuable resource. In fact, water consumption in the public and commercial sector is 50 percent higher than in private households. Here, each person uses up to 200 liters per day! In hospitals, spas, and other specialized facilities, consumption can even exceed 500 liters per person per day. Add to that the fact that malfunctions are not detected and repaired as quickly as in private homes. How can this enormous consumption be reduced?
We have significantly reduced the flow rate of our faucets; with 3 liters per minute at the washbasin and 6 liters per minute in the shower, we have very water-saving faucets. The water flow is precisely metered and automatically shuts off. Our washbasin faucets only run for 7 seconds.
Dual-flush toilets use 3 or 6 liters per flush.
The flush time for the urinal is limited to 3 seconds. With these and similar revisions to our product designs, we are continuously optimizing water consumption. Water and energy can be saved – without compromising user comfort!
