I like Nordic design and wooden furniture, because wood has a natural texture, but if it is used as a toilet, it seems not very hygienic and durable. But there are really Finnish design companies that are boldly using wood to design toilets. Of course, Petro Lahtinen, the founder of the design company Woodio, also has the above doubts. After all, if the original wood is used to make the toilet, not only must it be very thick (in other words, it will consume old trees), but also how to solve the problem of wood deformation or water absorption?
So I thought of using synthetic wood to make the leftover wood pieces and sawdust of furniture, plus polyester fiber and bioplastic resin mixed into a waterproof and high-density composite material. Maybe you will ask: Is that still a wooden toilet? 80% of the “wooden toilet” is made of local aspen sawdust and forestry scrap materials from Finland, and it also looks like the natural color of wood, and it also has the simple texture of wood. Sitting on it (that’s a very intimate touch! ) is really softer than ceramics; more than that, this composite material is said to be available for 50 years, which is more durable than ordinary ceramics for 10 to 15 years. The representative of the design company Woodio also admitted that this “Block wall-mounted wooden toilet” is the company’s most complicated product so far, both in research and development and production. It took a full three years to complete it, and it must be the most sophisticated wooden furniture A work of sincerity.
