Traditional toilets have a rim around the inner pan of the toilet. When you flush, the water distributes from underneath the toilet rim to dispose of waste. Hard-to-reach areas of a traditional toilet pan are breeding grounds for germs to hide.

The design of the new Rimless toilet enables an innovative and powerful flush: toilets use a direct flushing system, which distributes water around the pan more effectively. This means that each flush is more efficient. The systems makes the toilet easy to clean as there are not any nooks for grimes to build up. The important thing about the new design toilets as well is low water consumption. Traditional toilets use minimum 6 litres of water, while rimless technology reduces amount of water required while also providing a powerful flush (4 or 5 litres).
