The Museu da Água de Almada showcases some of Roca’s most water-efficient bathroom solutions, reflecting a shared commitment to protecting the environment and conserving this precious natural resource.
Key to this initiative is the award-winning W+W, an ingenious combination of washbasin and toilet that reduces water consumption by up to 25%. Incorporated into the design is the Single Pro faucet, which features an advanced cartridge that minimises water consumption and reduces CO2 emissions, exemplifying Roca's integration of technology and environmental responsibility. Roca's Proton urinals add to the efficiency with their minimalist design and a touchless flushing system that uses just 0.5 litres per flush. Combined with The Gap wall-hung toilets and PL1 dual flush plates, Roca delivers a seamless blend of functionality and style for public spaces. The Gap Round over countertop basins further enhance the overall aesthetic of the museum’s toilets. Extending its sustainability beyond the toilets, the museum also engages visitors with interactive exhibits that promote environmental awareness and encourage water-saving habits.
