TOILTE - CEFIONTECT
CEFIONTECT
Ultra-smooth ceramic leaves nowhere for waste to cling.
CEFIONTECT is an ultra-smooth ceramic glaze that coats the toilet bowl. Its microscopic surface ridges are far smaller than waste particles, leaving no place for waste to gain a foothold. Extremely durable, CEFIONTECT is designed for enduring beauty and cleanliness.
Eliminating the microscopic gaps where waste hides.
Conventional ceramic may appear perfectly smooth to the eyes, but has gaps where waste, mold and bacteria hide. At just one millionth of a millimeter, CEFIONTECT’s surface ridges are much tinier than waste particles.
What makes CEFIONTECT so durable?
Glass layers are burned onto conventional glaze, making CEFIONTECT an extremely durable material.
Which means TOTO ceramic is so smooth that the ridges are equivalent in scale to a human hair on a baseball field.
Water has a strong affinity to CEFIONTECT
Hydrophilic describes organisms and materials that attract water. CEFIONTECT is hydrophilic. Water spreads easily over the toilet bowl, so waste particles easily wash away.
TOILET – TORNADO FLUSH, RIMLESS, WATER SAVING
TORNADO FLUSH
360° cleaning power reaches every spot using less water.
TORNADO FLUSH not only cleans more effectively, it does so quietly using less water. Powerful streams of water merge and swirl 360 degrees, washing every spot inside the RIMLESS toilet bowl.
Powerful washing where waste accumulates most easily
TORNADO FLUSH’s dynamic waterjet discharges from near the front of the toilet bowl, travels in a narrow channel along a hairpin curve, and with sustained water pressure thoroughly cleanses the areas where waste accumulates most easily—and then washes the entire bowl clean. Exquisitely high-quality ceramic makes this innovative design possible.
RIMLESS DESIGN
The RIMLESS design not only leaves no place for waste and germs to hide. It also makes for a much easier to clean toilet.
WATER SAVING
High-efficiency Water Flushing and Water Saving System
ECOMAX is the general term for the efficient water-saving systems of TOTO toilet, which includes the super water-saving technology and CEFIONTECT technology developed by TOTO. With these technologies, TOTO can create super water-saving toilets with only 4.8L (or less) water flushing amount.
WASHLET – PREMIST
PREMIST
PREMIST automatically sprays water over the surface of the inner toilet bowl before every use. Due to the ceramic’s hydrophilic nature, waste washes away more easily.
WASHLET – EWATER+ for WAND
EWATER+ for WAND
The wand washes itself inside and out with EWATER+ to maintain hygienic conditions.
Before and after each use, the wand automatically sanitizes itself with antibacterial EWATER+. This thorough cleaning occurs inside the wand as well as all around the exterior. Even when the toilet is not being used, the wand periodically cleans itself to ensure constant hygienic conditions.
・ Survey: Study the effectiveness of EWATER+ by comparing the state of cleanliness of toilets that receive no cleaning versus toilets that are self-cleaned with EWATER+. No additional cleaning was allowed.
・ Survey period: One month (Feb. – Mar. 2017)
・ Subjects: Families of four.
* Results vary according to usage and environmental conditions. All data collected by TOTO.

Always Keeping Conditions Clean
Made of high-quality waste-resistant resin and automatically sprayed with EWATER+ after each use, the wand is extremely resistant
to waste and stains. What’s more, the wand attaches to the seat, not the bowl, so waste is less likely to even reach it. Though the wand is self-cleaning, you will appreciate how easily you can reach it and wipe it spotless.
WASHLET – EWATER+ for BOWL
EWATER+ for BOWL
Electrolyzed water removes waste, even bacteria you can’t see.
EWATER+ is a type of antibacterial water that sanitizes the wand and toilet bowl where waste and bacteria tend to accumulate and produce stains that can become permanent. Using no chemicals or cleaning agents, EWATER+ provides peace of mind every day that microscopic bacteria has no place to hide.
・ Survey: Study the effectiveness of EWATER+ by comparing the state of cleanliness of toilets that receive no cleaning versus toilets that are self-cleaned with EWATER+. No additional cleaning was allowed.

How EWATER+ cleans
Before use
PREMIST, a fine mist of ordinary water is sprayed inside the toilet
During use
Since waste is less able to adhere to a wet surface, it is more easily washed away
After use
EWATER+ is applied to wash the wand and toilet bowl
During Standby
EWATER+ is automatically sprayed 8hours after the last use
What is EWATER+?
Produced by electrolysis of the chloride ion in tap water, EWATER+ is a highly effective sanitizer. It is completely free of chemicals and cleaning agents. Over time EWATER+ returns to its original state of ordinary water, making it completely environmentally friendly.

Our SMA coil detects water temperature instantly. Compared to a traditional wax type, it reacts to hot water 6 times faster (in-house comparison).
FAUCET – MINI UNIT
MINI UNIT
Small and Flexible.
The exact exterior you want.
Concealed faucets helps to live up the bathroom. TOTO’s MINI UNIT is a technology that gives you more space and freedom. We don’t match the concealed system to each trim, instead we use a shared module. You can choose the functionality you need such as a single lever type, thermostat type, or touch button type, and also make choices based on design features such as circle or square fixtures.
Easier to install. Less load on the frame.
A high degree of flexibility when installing the MINI UNIT is one of its most attractive features. We were able to achieve one of the industry’s smallest and lightest bodies for the concealed system. It puts only a minimal load on the architectural frames and has improved manageability during installation. In order to conceal the unit, the wall only needs to be 97mm, and the system is able to absorb installation errors of ±13mm.
Industry-leading miniaturization. Beauty in balance.
We shrunk the unit to one of the industry’s smallest. The trims are also some of the most compact. In addition, our progress towards uniform sizes mean units can be used simultaneously to create s beautiful space. We also strived to make the trim as thin as possible. A bathroom of unity and style can be yours.
FAUCET – COMFORT GLIDE
COMFORT GLIDE
Easy to use, for a lifetime of comfort.
Ease of use, based in sensation comfort.
For TOTO, this does not simply mean comfort of movement. Ease of use, when it lasts a long time, becomes comfort in itself. For this purpose, TOTO has developed the internal valve based on users’ touch. Designed from the ground up to provide a fundamental comfort in operation.
Precise flow control, exclusive to TOTO.
Our exclusive technology means new functionality. We took the core component of the valve, the ceramic disc, and customized its shape for ease of use. Compared to conventional faucets, it’s easier to control water flow when just a little is required, such as when you are washing a contact lens. Because you can achieve the right amount of water flow instantly, it helps conserve water. *Adjustable flow functionality is only available for lavatory faucet for deck mounted types.
Special coating for prolonged comfort.
The ceramic disc, a core valve component, is covered with a special DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coating. This ensures long-lasting quality over conventional faucets that use a greased valve.
FUACET – SOFT FLOW

LINEAR CERAM
Exquisitely thin is the next dimension of beauty.
LINEARCERAM’s thin design harmonizes with any space.Although eye-catchingly thin, it is also extremely strong. Sophisticated and inviting to use, LINEARCERAM is a new paradigm in bathroom aesthetics.
To create a vessel of such exquisite thinness, TOTO developed an advanced form of proprietary ceramic.
Along the thinnest part of the ridge, LINEARCERAM is approximately half the depth of a conventional basin. At the same time, the material has almost twice the tensile strength.
