Unique Properties
Trident is a public toilet built by customizing the "product standardization process",unified visual+modularity+humanization+technology,to bring users a better sense of experience.
Different from ordinary public toilets,a photovoltaic power generation system is specially set up on the roof of Trident , which can also provide power support for the surrounding residents to use the environment, while satisfying the basic conditions of the public toilets' own electricity.
Dimensions & Packaging
The size of each public toilet project is different. All are single-storey independent buildings with an area ranging from 40-70 square meters and a floor height ranging from 3.5-5 meters.
Production Technology
The facade walls are decorated with blue fluorocarbon paint perforated panel curtain wall, brushed stainless steel metal logo uses blue Acrylic to form a fixed social cognition. The internal wall surface, floor and all facilities are treated with gray waterproof paint. The hand-washing table is designed with all-corner artificial marble integrated hand-washing table to reduce the difficulty of cleaning, which is visually beautiful and reduces the accumulation of stained waster water.
Design Challenge
In addition to the architectural design itself, the greater difficulty lies in the overall improvement of the use environment, including air purification systems, identification systems, and administrator training, etc.
