Public Urination: What Solutions Can Prevent It?

What Causes Public Urination?

Before proposing solutions, we need to start by understanding the root of the problem. The first observation is the lack of public toilets in city centers. In Paris, for example, there are only 432 such facilities for 2.141 million residents — a ratio of just 0.0002 toilets per resident… These installations are woefully insufficient, especially when you factor in tourist footfall.

Furthermore, according to the “Hygiene Matters” study, public toilets suffer from a lack of user trust. 46% of French people reportedly avoid using public toilets due to hygiene concerns — a distrust expressed even more strongly by women (53%), who are naturally more exposed to bacteria.

What Solutions Exist to Prevent Public Urination?

Many initiatives have been introduced to make things easier for everyone. Uritrottoirs (street urinals), for example, help repurpose urine, as it directly feeds planters built into these urinals — a very practical solution for men, and the planet thanks you!

But what about women and children?

Solutions exist for them too! From the most practical to the most eco-friendly to the most elegant, maintenance and cleaning are included with your sanitation installation rental.

The Most Eco-Friendly Option

Dry toilets operate without water, and in the case of our Bostia module, without wood shavings either. These sanitation facilities, perfectly respectful of the environment with a natural design, blend seamlessly into their surroundings!

The Most Practical Option

These self-contained cabins are practical, adaptable, and suitable for all users! Whether or not you have access to a water connection, they adapt to any situation.

The Highest Capacity Option

Offering maximum comfort, our modules can accommodate up to 16 people simultaneously. Ideal for high-traffic locations such as city centers or areas near public transportation.
