SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTS
Sustainable Products That Balance Cleanliness, Comfort, and the Environment
Over the last 100 years, TOTO has provided products that bring cleanliness and comfort, as well as eco-friendly products. Under WILL2030, we defined products that realize both of these requirements as sustainable products. By popularizing sustainable products around the world, we will contribute to realizing an enriched and comfortable society that is environmentally friendly.
