The latest eco-friendly bathroom buys

Looking to limit the waste in your bathroom while encouraging a circular economy? Planning an eco-friendly design is no easy feat, but with advancements in both technology and manufacturing, it’s never been more accessible.

We’ve worked with VitrA to help you make this switch by collating some of their innovative bathroom products crafted with performance and the planet in mind…

Eco-friendly washbasins

Made using broken and discarded ceramics, as well as waste materials saved from the crafting process which would otherwise end up in landfill, VitrA’s new recycled washbasins reduce the brand’s environmental impact with no compromises on style or function. “Opting for products that minimise waste, like our recycled washbasins, helps to contribute to the circular economy while still adding a modern product to your bathroom,” explains Nisan Tuncak, the brand’s head of design.

“Most bathroom products are discarded when they are replaced, so finding products that are built to last is essential,” she adds. Available in five organic shapes, all basins are finished with a tactile matt taupe glaze making them the ideal choice for a contemporary space.

Shower toilets

What else can you do to have a positive effect on the planet without sacrificing style or comfort in the bathroom? “Small changes, such as adding aerators to taps or choosing showers that provide a powerful flow while limiting water usage, can make a significant difference. But for a more substantial impact, consider installing a shower toilet,” says Nisan. “Models which include a bidet and dryer eliminate the need for toilet paper, which is a major water consumer in its production.”

VitrA’s V-Care shower toilet, for example, provides a next-level cleaning experience thanks to the variety of pressures, adjustable temperatures and positions, and comfortable heated seat while also cutting down on your toilet paper usage – a perfect addition to your eco-friendly bathroom.

Sleek smart panels

Complete your eco-friendly bathroom design with VitrA’s sleek smart panels, which use digital sensor technology to help you monitor and reduce your water usage when flushing. The data is accessible via an app, making it super easy to track your water footprint. Apart from leading to long-term savings and limiting waste, as the glossy black glass has an anti-fingerprint finish, it’s a breeze to wipe clean, too.
