Designed to relieve distress
August 1st 2004

Mobile toilets at beaches or camp sites, for example, are often a source of distress for users. Many are lightweight with a cheap, plastic exterior and likely to be blown down by winds. They are also difficult to keep clean. Danfo says its Pactosan mobile loo solves all the problems of strong winds, heat and cleanliness in one go. Environmentally friendly, the unit features solar cells for lighting, running water, modern ventilation and a waste water tank. Robust yet lightweight, it can be towed easily by a car and can be connected to electricity mains and sewage for a more permanent solution. The toilets have already been supplied to the Formula 1 stadium in Bahrain, to the swedish Antarctic Expedition and to the Pilgrimage at Mecca. Cyprus Civil Defense has 400 in storage in case of emergency.
