Global bathroom manufacturer TOTO will make its debut at HIX 2024, showcasing its iconic WASHLET within a bespoke 45 square metre stand. Designed by world-renowned architects Squire & Partners, the stand features a reception foyer, sensory zone, and a Tea House. The immersive space, illuminated by the soft glow of the WASHLET, takes visitors on a journey into a unique environment that blends modern technology with traditional Japanese design elements.
Drawing inspiration from Japanese architectural motifs, the design incorporates shoji screens with a contemporary twist. TOTO replaces traditional rice paper with architectural woven wire and wood mesh, creating a calm, serene space that allows visitors to experience the fusion of Japanese culture, cutting-edge technology, and design under one roof.
At HIX, TOTO will guide visitors on a sensory journey that reflects the event’s theme of exploring spaces and places. TOTO’s installation showcases the brand’s ability to transform environments and enhance user experiences, demonstrating its commitment to innovation in the bathroom sector.
A leader in design technologies for sanitaryware, TOTO’s dedication to continual product refinement, or kaizen, ensures exceptional comfort and hygiene. The WASHLET, TOTO’s signature toilet with an integrated bidet, has sold over 60 million units globally and is a popular choice for hospitality and luxury hotel suites.
TOTO will present its latest model, the NEOREST WX. Featuring the latest WASHLET technology, this new design cleverly conceals advanced features while maintaining a sleek and minimalist aesthetic. The NEOREST WX is one of TOTO’s premium offerings, showcasing the brand’s commitment to luxury, hygiene, and comfort.
Since entering the European market in 2009, TOTO has become a key player in the hospitality sector, with luxury hotels across the continent specifying the ultra-hygienic WASHLET to ensure a positive guest experience. As the WASHLET range continues to expand, the variety of designs offers increased flexibility, making it the ideal choice for hotels seeking both style and functionality.
