SECCO Toilet
LEHO SAS
The SECCO toilet is portable and operates without water, plumbing, or electricity.
The SECCO toilet is being developed by LEHO SAS in Columbia. The purpose of the device is to reduce environmental impact by not requiring water, plumbing, or electricity. There are portable and stationary versions of the SECCO toilet. The toilet separates liquid and solid waste. The waste collected by the toilet can be used for the creation of gas, compost, or energy. The waste processing does not occur inside the SECCO toilet.
The product is still in development and is not being distributed at this time. Special requests to obtain early versions of the product are accepted on their website.
The prototype price is 950 USD in full configuration. There are multiple configurations ranging from 250 USD to the full price. The estimated future price when the product enters production is 500 USD. Interview with representative.
Sanitario Seco Solar also targets South America. Dry-San Hygienic Rural Toilet, R.K. Technologies Economical Bio Toilet, and Laveo Dry Flush Toilet are similar devices from other regions. The product also competes with traditional forms of waste management such as pit latrines.
Goal 6: Clean water and sanitation
The portable toilet can be used in disaster response when traditional sanitation infrastructure is unavailable. Toilets can be sold to business, hospitals, residences, and industry. Any person interested in minimizing their environmental impact.
