Dual flush or 4.5 litre flush?
There are 2 types of cistern that give you significant water saving benefits - dual flush and 4.5 litre flush. The choice of which option to use may be determined by the usage environment. Dual flush cisterns have two buttons - the small button delivers 4 litres for a short flush and the large button delivers 6 litres for a long flush. This option would be more suitable in an office environment where users can become familiar with the system. The 4.5 litre flush would be more suitable for areas with a high throughput of many different users, e.g. an airport - where the lack of familiarity with dual flush may result in incorrect usage and therefore reduced water saving benefits.

Our 4.5 litre WCs pass all government flush regulations and are ideal for busy commercial applications.
New delayed flush cisterns
To ensure maximum savings we have developed delayed flush cisterns. This technology prevents the cistern from filling with water before the flush is complete, guaranteeing no additional water is wasted. This is particularly suitable in high water pressure situations.
Sensorflow
Sensorflow is an electronic washroom system that accurately controls washroom water. It is simple to fit and very user friendly.

For WCs a wall or panel sensor detects close proximity of the users hand. This initiates flushing using a pneumatic device.
The contemporary dual flush panel offers an elegantly modern solution for our wall mounted WCs.
