If you manage public facilities, schools, stations, sports facilities, campgrounds, or high-traffic venues, you know how complex restroom maintenance is. In environments with a constant flow of users, the top priority is not just aesthetics, but the combination of contactless hygiene, vandal resistance and zero repair costsIn this scenario, the squat toilet—especially in its modern stainless steel versions—remains the choice of choice for community spaces.
We at Holity We specialize in furnishings and supplies for public and professional restrooms: we understand the daily challenges of those who must ensure maximum hygiene and keep management costs low. In this guide, we provide practical advice for identifying the most suitable fixture. And when you're ready to configure your supply, in the catalog Holity.co.uk You'll find a wide selection of squat toilets to meet every space, installation, and regulatory requirement.
The first major choice concerns the construction materials. If in residential bathrooms ceramic is the dominant material, in community and public spaces stainless steel It is the unbeatable solution for very specific reasons:
The AISI 304 Stainless Steel With a satin finish, it represents the gold standard for general public facilities. It offers extremely high resistance to mechanical impact (impossible to crack or chip like ceramic), does not retain fingerprints, and is impervious to the harsh chemical detergents used for daily sanitization.
For even more demanding environments — such as train stations, seaside facilities subject to salt spray, motorway service stations or prisons — the AISI 316 Stainless Steel guarantees superior resistance to corrosion and salinity thanks to the presence of molybdenum in the alloy.
Depending on the condition of your premises and the type of construction (new construction or renovation), you can choose between two installation configurations:
The free-standing models They are installed directly on the existing flooring by connecting the drainage system. They are the fastest and most economical option for retrofits or rapid renovations, as they do not require complex excavations in the attic.
The built-in models They are embedded flush with the floor in the attic structure. They create an integrated aesthetic, eliminate any steps or protruding edges, and make it extremely easy to clean the floor with brushes or pressure washers.
To ensure maximum user safety in humid environments, it is always advisable to choose versions equipped with integrated non-slip footrests (with embossed surface or rubber treads), essential for preventing slips and falls.
The flexibility of the shapes on our store allows you to find the perfect Turkish dish for any niche:
The compact models (with width and depth starting from 59 mm up to 600-670 mm) are ideal for narrow guest bathrooms or prefabricated modules.
The standard and generous sizes (up to 900 x 900 mm) offer a large standing area, ensuring a comfortable and hygienic posture.
There are also advanced multifunctional solutions, such as Turkish dishes equipped with foldable or integrated shower tray, designed for community facilities, barracks, campsites or changing rooms where it is necessary to combine the use of the toilet with the shower drain in a single space.
Since these are sanitary ware for public use, it is essential to verify that the products comply with the European regulations in the sector (such as the standard EN 997 for the mechanical resistance and flushing performance of toilet bowls). The standardized drain diameter (100-102 mm) guarantees perfect compatibility with traditional sewer systems.
Thanks to their direct geometry, squat toilets allow for rapid waste drainage with reduced water demand, eliminating the need for complex built-in cisterns or floating flushes that are prone to constant breakage.
Planning a public restroom setup means making an investment that should last for years without requiring constant calls to the plumber. Our selection ranges from €147.00 and €2677.00, ranging from essential countertop plates to vandal-proof, armoured built-in modules for intensive use.

Why is squat toilet considered more hygienic in public bathrooms than traditional toilets?
The absence of direct bodily contact with the fixture's surface eliminates the transmission of bacteria and skin diseases from one user to another. Furthermore, the single-piece stainless steel structure has no panels, hinges, or gaps where dirt and germs can accumulate, making disinfection quick and effective.
What is the main difference between AISI 304 and AISI 316 stainless steel?
AISI 304 is the standard stainless steel, extremely resistant to water, impact, and common detergents. AISI 316 contains a percentage of molybdenum, making it exceptionally resistant to saltwater corrosion and the most aggressive chemicals, making it the ideal choice for bathrooms in railway stations, marine areas, or industrial settings.
How do you properly clean a stainless steel squat toilet?
Routine cleaning simply requires washing with hot water and neutral or diluted sodium hypochlorite-based degreasing detergents. It's important to avoid using strong acids or abrasive steel wool sponges, which could scratch the satin finish and compromise the steel's passivation film.
Are steel squat toilets vandal-proof?
Absolutely. Thick stainless steel (1.5–2 mm) is unbreakable. Unlike ceramic sanitary ware, it cannot be shattered by impacts or heavy objects thrown at it, preventing flooding and ensuring the complete safety of the public facility.
What kind of water pressure is needed for effective rinsing?
Squat toilets work best with a standard water pressure between 0.5 and 3 bar. To ensure complete perimeter rinsing of the tub, they can be combined with pressure-controlled flush valves or built-in timers.
