Sinaqua Waterless Urinals are among the few products that not only save time and money but also contribute to conserving natural resources.
Facility managers benefit from Sinaqua Waterless Urinals both environmentally and financially. In an era where operational costs are constantly rising, the intelligent solutions provided by Sinaqua technology cannot be overlooked.
When discussing waterless urinals, concerns about hygiene and odor naturally arise. That’s why Sinaqua Waterless Urinals have undergone extensive and rigorous testing in U.S. government facilities, academic institutions, and private laboratories.
Independent expert tests have proven that Sinaqua Waterless Urinals are far more hygienic and produce significantly less odor than traditional flush urinals with cisterns or sensors.
A PROGRESSIVE APPROACH
Sinaqua Waterless Urinal systems consist of a specially designed ceramic body and a patented, replaceable cartridge that locks securely into the base of the urinal. The cartridge fits into a housing connected to the waste drain. That’s it! No need for a cistern, valve installation, or fresh water connection.
EASY INSTALLATION
Installing waterless urinals is much faster and easier compared to traditional flush urinals. In newly constructed buildings, there is no need for a fresh water connection—only a waste drain connection is required. When replacing an existing urinal, the installer simply disconnects the water supply and connects the waterless urinal to the standard drain fitting.
HOW DOES SINAQUA WATERLESS URINAL WORK?
The heart of the Sinaqua Waterless Urinal system is its cartridge, which functions as a liquid trap. Thanks to its design and non-porous material, all urine passes through the cartridge and then through a recyclable, biodegradable seal that prevents odors. Additionally, the cartridge acts as a barrier against uric scale buildup, which can clog pipes over time.
Our cartridge models—Magma 1.0, Magma 2.0, and Magma 3.0—have been certified by IAPMO (International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials) as meeting technical standards, and they are recognized as some of the best-performing waterless urinal cartridges available.
The result? A clean, odor-free environment, clear pipes, and significant water savings.
ECONOMIC BENEFITS
From an economic perspective, it is inefficient to use fresh water to dispose of urine, which is 97% water, especially in a world with diminishing water resources.
The Sinaqua Waterless Urinal system reduces costs in three key ways:
Lower Installation Costs: Sinaqua Waterless Urinals are more affordable to purchase and install. Without a cistern mechanism, only a waste drain connection and minimal installation time are needed—typically less than an hour per urinal. For new constructions, costs are even lower since there is no need for fresh water plumbing.
Lower Water & Sewage Costs: Sinaqua Waterless Urinals save 100% on water and sewage expenses compared to traditional flush urinals. Additionally, the system eliminates the energy costs associated with pumping water to urinals and then to sewage treatment plants.
Lower Maintenance Costs: Without flush valves, there are no unexpected repair costs from leaking valves, clogged pipes, or water damage.
Since waste pipes are not exposed to lime buildup from hard water, blockages are eliminated, reducing the need for pipe cleaning.
Daily maintenance requires only a simple “spray and wipe” routine, significantly reducing the use of cleaning chemicals.
SINAQUA MAGMA 3.0
Sinaqua Waterless Technologies’ patented three-barrier system is estimated to prevent backflow of sewer gases 500 times more effectively than traditional P-trap water barriers.
The innovative Sinaqua Gel-Free Cartridge is the core of the Sinaqua Waterless Urinal system and sets a new standard for performance. The cartridge features a patented check valve that allows urine to pass freely while maintaining an airtight seal, even in vacuum or pressure-drained pipes, ensuring an odor-free environment.
Other systems using soft rubber valves fail to prevent odors and gases due to their lack of a proper locking mechanism, and they do not protect drainage pipes since they lack a filtering function.
As a result, Sinaqua Waterless Technologies is the only LGA & IAPMO-certified waterless urinal system offering both gel-based and gel-free cartridge options.
The Sinaqua Dry Cartridge design is the result of extensive research and development, delivering the most advanced technology among waterless urinal systems.
Sinaqua Waterless Technologies is compatible with industry-leading brands such as Ideal Standard, Vitra, Porcelanosa, Daelim, Armitage Shanks, Porcher, and Sloan.
FEATURES & ADVANTAGES
Works reliably in both vacuum and pressure plumbing systems.
Built-in filter prevents debris from entering drain pipes, reducing blockages.
Airtight locking mechanism prevents CO2 and sewer gas emissions.
Easy cartridge replacement in under one minute.
No gel required.
Reduces urinal water consumption by 100%.
Made from recyclable ABS plastic.
Magma 1.0 and Magma 2.0 feature a universal adapter system for compatibility with all waterless urinals.
HYGIENIC & AESTHETIC BENEFITS
Concerns about odor and hygiene are common when considering waterless urinals. Sinaqua Waterless Urinal systems eliminate odor and create a cleaner, more hygienic restroom environment:
Urine itself is odorless. Odor occurs when urine reacts with water and air to produce ammonia gas. Without water, urinals dry quickly between uses, preventing odor formation.
Bacteria and viruses thrive on wet surfaces. Traditional flush urinals provide an ideal environment for bacteria growth, and flushing disperses airborne contaminants. Sinaqua Waterless Urinals eliminate these risks.
Sinaqua Waterless Urinals not only offer economic benefits but also make restrooms safer and more comfortable.
ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS
According to the U.S. Geological Survey, only 0.3% of the world’s water resources are available for human use. This highlights the critical need to eliminate water waste.
Each Sinaqua Waterless Urinal saves approximately 151,000 liters (40,000 gallons) of water annually, which is equivalent to nine full tanker trucks of water that could be used for more essential purposes.
Furthermore, waterless urinals eliminate the energy required to pump water to and from restrooms, reducing carbon dioxide emissions associated with energy production. This contributes to the fight against global warming.
Additionally, waterless urinals reduce the demand on wastewater treatment plants, helping prevent overflows and improving overall sanitation infrastructure.
Lastly, Sinaqua Waterless Urinal technology supports the LEED Green Building Rating System, promoting sustainable water conservation efforts. By choosing Sinaqua Waterless Urinals, you and your organization contribute to protecting clean water resources and building a more sustainable future.
