CEFIONTECT
Ultra-smooth ceramic leaves nowhere for waste to cling
CEFIONTECT is an ultra-smooth ceramic glaze that coats the toilet bowl. Its microscopic surface ridges are far smaller than waste particles, leaving no place for waste to gain a foothold. Extremely durable, CEFIONTECT is designed for enduring beauty and cleanliness.
How small in a nano meter?
Which means TOTO ceramic is so smooth that the ridges are equivalent in scale to a human hair on a baseball field.
Eliminating the microscopic gaps where waste hides
Conventional ceramic may appear perfectly smooth to the eyes, but has gaps where waste, mold and bacteria hide. At just one millionth of a millimeter, CEFIONTECT's surface ridges are much tinier than waste particles.

What makes CEFIONTECT so durable?
Glass layers are burned onto conventional glaze, making CEFIONTECT an extremely durable material.

Water has a strong affinity to CEFIONTECT
Hydrophilic describes organisms and materials that attract water. CEFIONTECT is hydrophilic. Water spreads easily over the toilet bowl, so waste particles easily wash away.

TORNADO FLUSH
360° cleaning power reaches every spot using less water.
TORNADO FLUSH not only cleans more effectively, it does so quietly using less water. Powerful streams of water merge and swirl 360 degrees, washing every spot inside the RIMLESS toilet bowl.
Powerful washing where waste accumulates most easily
TORNADO FLUSH’s dynamic waterjet discharges from near the front of the toilet bowl, travels in a narrow channel along a hairpin curve, and with sustained water pressure thoroughly cleanses the areas where waste accumulates most easily—and then washes the entire bowl clean. Exquisitely high-quality ceramic makes this innovative design possible.
RIMLESS
The unique RIMLESS design not only leaves no place for waste and germs to hide. It also makes for a much easier to clean toilet.
EWATER+
Electrolyzed water removes waste, even bacteria you can’t see.
EWATER+ is a type of antibacterial water that sanitizes the wand and toilet bowl where waste and bacteria tend to accumulate and produce stains that can become permanent. Using no chemicals or cleaning agents, EWATER+ provides peace of mind every day that microscopic bacteria has no place to hide.
Survey: Study the effectiveness of EWATER+ by comparing the state of cleanliness of toilet bowls that receive no cleaning versus toilet bowls that are self-cleaned with EWATER+. No additional cleaning was allowed.
Survey period: One month (Feb. - Mar. 2017).
Subjects: Families of four.
*Results vary according to usage and environmental conditions. All data collected by TOTO.
Before Use
PREMIST, a fine mist of ordinary water is sprayed inside the toilet
During Use
Since waste is less able to adhere to a wet surface, it is more easily washed away
After Use
EWATER+ is applied to sanitize the wand and toilet bowl and remove waste
During Standby
EWATER+ is automatically sprayed 8 hours after the last use to inhibit bacteria growth
Produced by electrolysis of the chloride ion in tap water, EWATER+ is a highly effective sanitizer. It is completely free of chemicals and cleaning agents. Over time EWATER+ returns to its original state of ordinary water, making it completely environmentally friendly.
What is EWATER+?
PREMIST
PREMIST automatically sprays water over the surface of the inner toilet bowl before every use. Due to the ceramic’s hydrophilic nature, waste washes away more easily.
SELF CLEANING WAND by EWATER+
The wand washes itself inside and out with EWATER+ to maintain hygienic conditions.
Before and after each use, the wand automatically sanitizes itself with antibacterial EWATER+. This thorough cleaning occurs inside the wand as well as all around the exterior. Even when the toilet is not being used, the wand periodically cleans itself to ensure constant hygienic conditions.
Before Use
Self-cleans with water
During Use
Self-cleans with wate
After Use
Self-cleanses inside and out with EWATER+
During Standby
Self-cleanses inside with EWATER+
Survey: Study the effectiveness of EWATER+ by comparing the state of cleanliness of wands self-cleaned with EWATER+ versus those that are not. No additional cleaning was allowed.
Survey period: Two months (Sep. - Oct. 2017).
Subjects: Families of four.
*Results vary according to usage, environmental conditions, and product type. All data collected by TOTO.
CLEAN MATERIAL
High-quality resin repels waste and dirt and resists staining, keeping surfaces clean.
Always Keeping Conditions Clean
Made of high-quality waste-resistant resin and automatically sprayed with EWATER+ after each use, the wand is extremely resistant to waste and stains. What’s more, the wand attaches to the seat, not the bowl, so waste is less likely to even reach it. Though the wand is self-cleaning, you will appreciate how easily you can reach it and wipe it spotless.
ACTILIGHT
Photocatalytic glaze, the ultimate cleaning technology, has the natural power to decompose waste.
ACTILIGHT elevates toilet cleaning to an extraordinary new dimension. Comprising a bacteria-neutralizing ultraviolet light and a titanium dioxide-fired toilet bowl, this extraordinary technology initiates a photocatalytic process that breaks down even microscopic waste particles.
State-of-the-art materials
Titanium dioxide attracts water to the surface of the toilet bowl, setting the stage for photocatalysis. The toilet bowl's photocatalytic glaze layer also contains zirconium oxide, which provides its extreme durability.
Operates 24 hours a day to maintain hygienic conditions
The photocatalytic process with UV light and titanium dioxide produces Activated Oxygen from the ambient oxygen and water molecules, which further breaks down organic waste and reduces the food source that microbes feed on.
Before Use
PREMIST, a fine mist of ordinary water is sprayed inside the toilet
During Use
Since waste is less able to adhere to a wet surface, it is more easily washed away
After Use
Automatic flushing, then spraying of EWATER+ to sanitize the toilet bowl
During Standby
The UV light continues to react with the titanium dioxide, decomposing waste on the toilet bowl
Every moment of every day, the experience of life arising clean, comfortable and always inviting.
Constantly at work, automated technologies maintain hygienic conditions, keeping surfaces clean and providing a place that is inviting and comfortable.
