Kompotoi<\/a> is among the six finalists<\/a> for the Swiss Excellence Product Award 2021<\/a> . Swiss Excellence has<\/a> now announced this. The Zurich start-up convinced the jury with its mobile and sustainability-focused composting toilets. The award ceremony will take place on September 16 in the Technopark Winterthur. With the Swiss Excellence Product Award, the Swiss Excellence Foundation claims to make a contribution to promoting entrepreneurship and Switzerland as a technology and innovation location.<\/p>\n

Kompotoi says it offers a “beautiful, user-friendly and sustainable alternative” to conventional toilets. They are “absolutely odor-free” and are made from wood “by hand in Switzerland”. You can get by without plastic, chemicals, electricity and flushing water. \u201cWe have developed a better solution than the conventional one for the mobile toilet area. It’s simple and obvious. That is why customers are enthusiastic about our product, \u201dsaid Kompotoi in his presentation<\/a> for the Green Business Award<\/a> , for which the company has also been nominated.<\/p>\n

Instead, the collected residues are converted into stable humus soil using a combined process technology of fermentation and composting. \u201cOne kilo of compost stores an average of 0.2 kg of CO2,\u201d said Kompotoi when asked about the environmental benefits of their product. \u201cKompotoi produced around 100 tons of compost in 2019, that’s around 20,000 kilograms of stored CO2. If all mobile toilets in Switzerland were operated as compost toilets, 13,200 tons of CO2 could be sustainably stored in the soil. “<\/p>\n

Kompotoi rents out its wooden toilets for larger festivals, for example. The company is also planning systems in the public sector or for single and multi-family houses. Kompotoi also sells toilet solutions for garden houses, hunting lodges and alpine huts.<\/p>\n

With Kompotoi, two more start-ups are competing for the Swiss Excellence Product Award: Hivewatch<\/a> and Smartbreed<\/a> . Three companies have also been nominated in the SME category: Advanced Osteotomy Tools – AOT AG<\/a> , Qumea<\/a> and Rheonics<\/a> . All start-up finalists are already supported with a three-year coaching from the start-up sponsor genisuisse<\/a> .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
