Recycling & Rückgabe – Was passiert am Ende mit deiner Trenntoilette?

Recycling & Return – What happens to your composting toilet at the end?

When you buy a product, you rarely think about what happens to it later. But that's exactly what we do. Even when developing our composting toilets, we think one step ahead :
👉 How can the product be disassembled and recycled easily and in an environmentally friendly way?

Recycling already considered during design

At ecoshit, we rely on one principle: sorted waste instead of hazardous waste.
That is why we consciously avoid:

❌ Bonding

❌ Mixed materials

❌ difficult to separate plastic combinations

Instead, we use pure polypropylene (PP) or ABS , plastics that are known worldwide, recyclable and easy to sort .
Even with our DIY building instructions , we make sure that no adhesives or silicone are required – everything can be mechanically assembled and later disassembled .

Built to last – but nothing lasts forever

Our composting toilets are sturdy, weatherproof and designed for a very long service life .
With a little care (e.g. regular cleaning and dry storage) they can accompany you for many years.
But at some point it might all come to an end – and then the question arises: What to do with it?

Option 1: Return to us

It's best if you bring the toilet back to us .
We know our product down to the last screw and can:

  • extract the materials in pure form ,
  • refurbish recyclable parts ,
  • or dispose of them in an environmentally friendly manner.

♻️ “Don’t waste, reuse.” – that’s our credo.

This is how the return works:
Simply contact us in advance – we'll even provide you with a return label if you wish. You can find the address in the imprint .

Option 2: Recycling center or bulky waste

Alternatively, you can also dispose of the composting toilet at a recycling center or with bulky waste .
Since we use pure materials , they can usually be recycled there without any problems – without any special treatment.

Conclusion: The end is part of the beginning

At ecoshit, we don’t just think about the first use – but also the last.
Our products are designed so that they cannot simply be disposed of , but can be reused or recycled in a meaningful way .
Because true sustainability doesn’t end after the purchase – it begins there.
