The only sanitary disposal unit, made from biodegradable plastics with minimal design and maintenance in mind. 

TerraCyclic has been designed to honour the ancient connections and traditions of women over 1000’s of years. Women all over the world have been physically connected to the cycles of the moon and spiritually connected to the earth. Inspired by this, TerraCyclic is biodegradable, making it safe to return to mother earth.

Great for business and the earth 

TerraCyclic is the only sanitary disposal unit in the world, made from biodegradable plastics and can be returned to the earth through normal refuse disposal. TerraCyclic offers convenience, easy sanitary disposal, simple service and a choice of exterior finishing’s.  

 

Designed with minimal handling and cleaning in mind, it fits discreetly into rest rooms and required minimal maintenance. It is perfect for smaller businesses, locations without full servicing plants and isolated businesses un-reached by servicing. Also great for restrooms with seasonal requirements, sea-based operations such as ferries and environmentally sensitive areas such as beaches and wildlife parks.

Minimal in design and maintenance  

TerraCyclic is not meant to be reused, that is why it is made from biodegradable plastics that can be disposed of through normal refuse disposal.  

Designed with easy cleaning in mind, a cartridge is simply inserted into the cylinder and then disposed in its entirety after use, with other waste.  

Cartridges already include pre-inserted biodegradable Saniquill chemicals, and are supplied neatly stacked into each other for easy storage.  

 

TerraCyclic comes in two convenient sizes; 13 litre and 26 litre.  The 13 litre capacity measures 70cm x 15cm.  The 26 litre capacity measures 80cm x 20cm.  

 

Every TerraCyclic sanitary disposal unit includes a long-life wall mounted cylindrical unit, which holds the replacement lid and cartridge liner.  

The compact size and unique design guarantee the cylinder life is extended. Once mounted on the wall, the unit never needs to be handled again. The cylinder allows it to fit discreetly into cubicles and restrooms.
