The SATO Blue Hygiene Pan – Plastic Asian Toilet is a specialized squatting sanitary solution designed to upgrade open-pit latrines into safer, more hygienic facilities. This model features a unique “pour-flush” design with a counterweighted trap door that stays closed when not in use, creating a mechanical seal over the pit. This seal effectively blocks foul odors and prevents disease-carrying insects from accessing the waste. Constructed from high-quality, weather-resistant blue polymer, the pan is lightweight, easy to clean, and requires very little water to flush. It is an ideal, low-cost choice for sanitation projects where water conservation and hygiene are top priorities.
