Background
Long before our complex pipe system was invented and the sewerage treatment plants came into effect, people used to dig up multiple holes in the ground and use them as lavatories. There was no controlled sanitation system that had been put in place as yet. It was later upgraded to a form of the seat that was made up of a wooden plank with a hole cut in the middle, these toilets date back to the fourteenth century B.C. Some of the toilets were later given clay pots that were regularly cleaned instead of standing above a deep hole in the ground.  It, however, took them some time before they realized there was a need for privacy and this is how they started putting up walls to cover the toilet as opposed to placing the toilets in bushes that are far from their residential areas.

In the modern-day, we have a complex network of pipes fitted into almost every home collecting waste from all connected lavatories. These pipes lead everything down through the mainlines to the sewerage treatment plant where the water and waste undergo a series of specified treatments after which the purified water is then released back into the water system for re-use.

Now when the pipe system was implemented in the Victorian era, much like today a lot of areas such as work stations and farm areas far from the city centre still had no access to the luxury of the modern sanitary system. These are the people for which Comfort Loos has aimed at providing with dignified sanitation systems that are portable and need not be connected to any sewer lines.

Many people are involved in various activities on a daily basis that may lead to making our bodies filthy. The food we eat is digested and naturally waste is released, which needs to be passed out of the body. In this case, the requirement and importance of toilets and showers cannot be disregarded. Over time, ploughing of toilets and constructing bathrooms became hard. However, now in many parts of the world, people are embracing the use of portable showers and toilets.

With clean and convenient facilities, workers are able to save a lot of time during working hours. They do not have to search for a nearby restroom. When going out searching, breaks are prolonged and will result in delays in the job. This assists in saving money that can be rather spent on portable facilities. These amenities are a lot cheaper than constructing an entire structure from scratch.

You may think that emptying portable toilets could be an unpleasant task, but manufacturers have come up with a grand solution. Toilets are now attached with drainage pipes that lead the waste into sewage. This is to make sure that one is able to keep their hands clean and minimize bad odors as well as to offer an easier emptying process.

These amenities also offer convenience of serving people in outdoor activities. Some of these can simply be placed on the ground and serve their functions. All of this makes it possible for people that are mobility disadvantaged, as most of them have ramps fixed on them.
Apart from using portable toilets and showers in outdoor activities, they are used in many other activities too. This includes construction sites as well as renovations on an existing facility.

How quality and clever chemicals used can make a portable loo comfortable. Toilet hygiene relies on long lasting and effective chemicals.

These chemicals not only have to clean the toilet, but be safe on humans as well. Everyone always has questions like should I use this toilet? Or are these toilets clean and safe to use?

The answer to all these questions is yes you should use comfort loos and yes they are clean and safe at all times. Here is why you should use portable loos at an event.
Types of chemicals used
Dye – In Comfort loos dye is used to reduce odours’ in the toilet. This chemical is used in small structured tanks, which needs to be emptied often.

When these are hired the company does all the cleaning, that’s why most people prefer to hire loos. This dye is normally blue in colour, so when urine and faeces interact with it, it turns green in colour.

Biocides – These are products that keep the bacteria away.

For example: spraying disinfectant when you walk into an office or into the hospital. These keep the germs away and they also protect your skin against bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

This can be used to sanitize the toilet seat and hands before and after you use the loo.

Emulsifier –  These are molecules used in comfort loos to make water and oils combine and not separate.
