Acceptance and interest in waterfree urinal systems have grown as the world’s leadership has adopted a greater sense of urgency about finding solutions for a future where fresh water may be less available and certainly more costly. With an estimated 53.7 million flush urinals installed globally; the potential benefit of waterfree urinals is significant.

INNOVATIVE PRODUCTS       

Falcon Waterfree urinals utilize a patented cartridge with a biodegradable liquid sealant, which acts as a barrier to provide odor-free operation. They are also designed specific to global regions in several styles, colors and materials. The urinals are primarily marketed as the Falcon Waterfree brand but also marketed as Sloan Waterfree, Ideal Standard, Porcher, and Armitage Shanks brands in specific global regions.

BENEFITS      

One Falcon waterfree urinal can save up to 40,000 gallons or more of water each year. Independent studies have determined that Falcon Waterfree urinals are more hygienic than flush-style urinals. Installation can contribute to lower installation, maintenance, water and sewage costs.  Because the transport and treatment of water is an energy intensive process, water conservation resulting from Falcon Waterfree urinals reduces energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Installations also can earn Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) points for building certification.
