Traditional flush toilets, especially in public restrooms, use several litters of water per flush. A waterless urinal, on the other hand, does not require water for flushing, conserving up to 3 to 5 litters per use (depending on the system). In a country with a population of over 1.4 billion, switching to waterless urinals in both public and private spaces could add up to significant savings in water usage.

Waterless urinals use less water in a manner that promotes sustainability. With efficient water management, urban centres can redirect saved water to critical areas such as agriculture, drinking, and sanitation in rural regions, helping to bridge the gap between supply and demand for clean water.

India’s urban population is rapidly growing, leading to increasing demand for water. Urban water infrastructure, including sewage systems, is already under strain. Waterless urinals reduce the strain on both water supply and sewage treatment facilities. This is particularly important in areas where water supply systems are inefficient, reducing water wastage and improving overall urban water management.

In regions with frequent droughts or unreliable water supply, waterless urinals can be a game-changer. They are ideal for deployment in places where water availability is low or where access to sanitation facilities is limited, helping to ensure that water is used more efficiently for other purposes.
