Concern about sanitation and cleanliness standards is growing. Customers, tenants and employees expect and demand washroom facilities at work and public places that are as clean, if not cleaner, than at home.

The biggest problem with keeping toilets and urinals clean is that most odour-causing problems occur out of sight. Uric scale and mineral deposits build up wherever the flow of water goes - in drains, pipes and septic tanks. It is here that germs and bacteria breed, doubling in number every 20 minutes, causing offensive odours and unhygienic conditions.
