In recent years, WC technologies have evolved, and today many of the best brands carry smart toilets and bidets that allow users to control various functions, such as adjusting the water temperature, flushing, and even opening and closing the lid using a remote control or smartphone app. Hygiene is a priority among WC manufacturers, and new developments include antimicrobial ceramic surfaces, rimless designs, and improved flushing systems. Also available are more products with dual flush systems that allow the user to choose between a full flush or reduced flush to reduce overall water usage, and also products with adjustable position bidets and seat heights.
One key innovation for WCs is odour extraction which makes the user experience a much more pleasant one. “With the advancement of technology, the latest shower toilets are designed like art pieces, offering natural hygiene with water that is much softer and gentler than toilet paper, and that is also soothingly refreshing. For example, while maximising the hygiene level in the bathroom, Duravit’s Starck f also comes with HygieneGlaze with an antibacterial effectiveness of up to 99.9 percent,” says Jerome Toh, Area Manager for Duravit, Singapore.
