The Sun-Mar Excel Composting Toilet is one of the best selling products of its kind in North American – and for good reason! A high capacity electric Bio-drum toilet that is very simple to operate, the Excel can be used in any residence, and using proven technology, produces no odor, uses no water and delivers clean compost. As it’s a self-contained unit, this Sun-Mar composting toilet features an attached 2-inch vent that can be installed invisibly by running it through the wall to the outside. An environmentally healthy choice for recycling human waste, no chemicals and septic system make up any part of it. Instead, the Excel uses a unique Sun-Mar Bio-drum that combines waste and peat mix bulking material. To mix and aerate, rotate the drum periodically, which is done easily by turning a handle found in front of the unit. To empty the compost, just release the drum locker and rotate the drum backwards. The Excel starts in price from $1,695. Sun-Mar.

Enviro Bath offers a unique selection of vanities, sinks and faucets for the bath; which, according to the company website, are produced with 100% recycled materials. Enviro Bath products are cast from salvaged brass, aluminum and other alloys that may have added to an already overburdened landfill load. The company’s diverse selection of 100% recycled designs ranges from the clearly modern Fantasia sink (below) to the intricately organic Bella Flor drop-in sink (above). Sierra brings a rustic aesthetic to a gently patinated sink and is available in many finishes including this classic Mystique. Faucet designs at Enviro Bath are distinctly varied as well; with exotic choices such as Tree Frog, Giraffe, Peacock and Bird of Paradise.

The environmentally dedicated and innovative team at Gore Design brings a new twist to custom, recycled concrete sink design with their Signature Erosion Sink. This intriguing design caught the attention of green architecture and research firm organicARCHITECT, who honored the sink in their ORGANICAWARDS for 2007.
Gore Design creative team is also proud of their commitment to sustainability. All of the pigments used in the creation of their custom, recycled concrete sinks are completely free of heavy metals and all sealers are water-based. Recycled materials and industrial byproducts, such as fly ash, are put to good use as well. In addition, they have eliminated industry standard water polishing in favor of dry polishing to save over 600 gallons of water per average project. The company notes; “..,we know that working green doesn’t mean we have to compromise the quality or artistry of our products”. Gore Design
