The global market for Urine Diverting Toilets was estimated to be worth US$ 37.3 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 55 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period 2025-2031.
This report provides a comprehensive assessment of recent tariff adjustments and international strategic countermeasures on Urine Diverting Toilets cross-border industrial footprints, capital allocation patterns, regional economic interdependencies, and supply chain reconfigurations.
In 2024, global production of Urine Diverting Toilets will reach 51,740 units, with an average selling price of US$720.91 per unit and a gross profit margin of approximately 35%-43%. Urine Diverting Toilets can separate urine and solid waste. The toilet is equipped with a fan to extract moisture and air, making the space where the toilet is located completely odor-free. Urine separation technology not only reduces odor but also reduces the amount of waste required for disposal. Urine is discharged into a collection container or percolation pond, while solid waste is placed in compostable bio-bags made of corn starch and then composted. Urine Diverting Toilets are suitable for all environments and require no sewer pipes, heated spaces, or water. Its core design is to separate urine and feces through physical structures (such as double-trough toilets and special pipes), collecting them in independent containers or treatment systems. Its value lies in resource recovery, water conservation and emission reduction, and sanitation optimization. Based on the treatment method and water demand, urine diverting toilets can be divided into Urine-Diverting Dry Toilet (UDDT) and Urine-Diverting Flush Toilet (UDFT). Urine-Diverting Dry Toilet (UDDT) is completely waterless, relying on physical separation and natural aeration/composting to treat feces. The Urine-Diverting Flush Toilet (UDFT) separates urine from feces, flushing them into a septic tank or compost bin with a small amount of water. It is mainly used in water-scarce areas (such as Africa and the Middle East), ecological protection areas, mobile scenarios such as RVs/yachts, and agricultural communities (urine is directly used for irrigation).
Key global manufacturers of Urine Diverting Toilets include LAUFEN Bathrooms, Separett, and Kazuba. The top three companies have about 33% of the market. Europe is the world's largest market for Urine Diverting Toilets with a market share of about 47%, followed by Asia Pacific and North America with a market share of 21% and 17%, respectively. In terms of product type, Urine-Diverting Dry Toilet (UDDT) is the largest segment with approximately 84% market share. In terms of application, Commercial is the largest downstream segment, accounting for about 71% of the market.
Market Trends:
From the perspectives of environmental protection, hygiene, and sustainability, urine-diverting toilets are a promising technological breakthrough. Initially adopted in developed countries, they have also been promoted and piloted in developing countries. However, market adoption remains slow, and widespread adoption faces challenges. The promotion and adoption of new technologies also involves social changes, such as user experience, cultural adaptation, environmental awareness, regulation, and maintenance. Developed countries are committed to promoting this application in developing countries, but from a market perspective, beyond market considerations, companies should also focus on how to make urine-diverting toilets more widely accepted. Furthermore, providing ongoing safe evacuation training or establishing evacuation/reuse services are crucial for the successful implementation of urine-diverting toilets.
Drivers:
The need for improved sanitation and a circular economy: Since the International Year of Sanitation in 2008, a growing number of users, stakeholders, and policymakers have become aware of the global sanitation crisis, with over 2.5 billion people experiencing either limited or no access to basic sanitation. Infectious fecal contamination of the environment poses health risks and leads to thousands of preventable deaths each day, particularly among young children. Over the past decade, urine-diverting dry toilets (UDDTs) have been recognized as a viable sanitation technology, gaining increasing acceptance from both a cost-effective and user-friendly perspective. Furthermore, this technology offers the potential for developing a wastewater recycling value chain for agricultural use or safe disposal. UDDTs collect human waste and reuse it as fertilizer, benefiting the ecological cycle.
Reducing Pollution: Pollution is a global problem. Global wastewater treatment systems are failing to meet demand, leading to the discharge of untreated sewage into rivers and oceans. This has knock-on effects for wildlife that rely on these water sources, jeopardizing human water security. Urine-diverting composting toilets are a promising way to protect waterways from pollution. The disadvantages of pit latrines: According to the Joint Monitoring Programme (JMP), approximately 2.5 billion people worldwide lack access to improved sanitation facilities, with 1.1 billion still practicing open defecation. Knowledge and practice of key health behaviors are also widely lacking. Consequently, the ingestion and fecal transmission of fecal pathogens from contaminated food and water sources are leading causes of illness and preventable death. In 2010, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported that diarrheal diseases affect more children worldwide than HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria combined. Pit latrines are common in developing and transitional countries because they are relatively cheap, simple to operate, and require no water. However, pit latrines can spread fecal contaminants into water resources, particularly in urban areas, flood-prone regions, and areas with high groundwater levels.
Energy savings: Traditional toilets use a lot of energy to move water and then flush it back down the drain. Ultimately, more energy is used to pump and treat the wastewater. Because urine-diverting composting toilets (UDDTs) collect human urine in a separate head and don't mix it with solid waste, UDDTs require less water to flush. Fewer flushes means the UDDT uses less water, which in turn means less energy.
