SUN-MAR COMPOSTING TOILETS

No Septic System, No Chemicals, No Odor!

Sun-Mar remains the leader in cottage toilets and dominated the North American Market with its unparalleled range of 19 models from 5 different product Families. Each carries an amazing 25-year warranty on the body. The unique three chamber patented BioDrum are designed into all of the Sun-Mar products.

Composting is Nature's Way

Every living organism consumes nutrients and creates waste. To transform waste back to nutrients and complete this cycle, nature uses the process of decomposition and evaporation. Sun-Mar toilets are designed not only to harness these processes, but also to optimize and accelerate these processes.

Wherever there is a poor working septic system, a Sun Mar can take care of the toilet waste; where there is an outhouse we offer the luxury of an indoor toilet and where there is no toilet at all we can provide one.
