How Waterless Urinals Save Money on Maintenance and Create New Revenue Streams
When it comes to managing commercial buildings, every decision about infrastructure and facilities impacts the bottom line. Restrooms, often overlooked as a source of innovation, are now becoming a focal point for cost savings and even revenue generation. URIMAT’s waterless urinal systems are leading the way by combining cutting-edge maintenance automation with a unique advertising platform, offering building managers and owners a dual benefit: reduced operational costs and a new source of income.
Streamlined Maintenance: Saving Time and Money
Traditional urinals require constant water flow, regular manual cleaning, and frequent maintenance to prevent clogs, mineral buildup, and unpleasant odors. These issues not only increase maintenance costs but also disrupt operations, especially in high-traffic facilities like shopping malls, airports, and sports arenas.
URIMAT’s waterless urinal systems eliminate these problems with their unique cleaning technology. The URIMAT-CS cleaning system uses microbiological cleaning agents to keep urinals hygienic and odor-free while protecting drain pipes from blockages. The system’s LCD screen provides real-time updates on cleaning agent levels, ensuring maintenance teams know exactly when to replace supplies. This reduces unnecessary labor and eliminates guesswork, allowing janitorial staff to focus on other critical tasks.
For building managers, this translates to significant SAVINGS. With less manual cleaning required and no water usage, facilities can cut down on both labor costs and water bills. Each URIMAT urinal saves up to 100,000 liters of water annually, which not only reduces utility expenses but also supports sustainability goals. Over time, these savings add up, making waterless urinals a cost-effective investment for any commercial property.
Turning Restrooms Into Revenue Generators
Beyond the operational savings, URIMAT’s waterless urinals offer a unique opportunity to generate revenue through their integrated digital advertising platform. Each urinal is equipped with a high-resolution LED display that displays targeted advertisements to restroom users. This innovative feature transforms a traditionally passive space into an active digital media channel, creating a captive audience for advertisers.
The numbers speak for themselves. According to a study conducted by the renowned market research institute IHA-GfK in Switzerland:
- 93% of users noticed the advertising screen immediately.
- 96% found the advertising either positive or non-intrusive.
- 90% were able to recall the advertising message.
These statistics highlight the effectiveness of URIMAT’s advertising platform in delivering high-impact, memorable campaigns. For building owners, this means the potential to monetize restroom spaces by partnering with advertisers in industries like sportswear, entertainment, male health, food and beverage, and more.
The system is designed for flexibility and ease of use. Advertisements can be deployed remotely via a secure cloud-based network, allowing content to be updated in real-time or scheduled for specific times and dates. Campaigns can be targeted locally, regionally, or nationally, making it an attractive option for advertisers looking to reach specific demographics. With low production costs and the ability to play videos, images, and even live streams, the platform offers endless possibilities for creative and engaging content.
A Win-Win for Building Managers and Advertisers
For building managers, the combination of maintenance savings and advertising revenue creates a compelling business case for URIMAT’s waterless urinals. On the one hand, the cleaning system reduces labor and water costs, while on the other, the advertising platform generates a steady income stream. This dual benefit makes URIMAT an ideal solution for high-traffic facilities like shopping malls, sports stadiums, restaurants, bars, and tourist attractions.
Moreover, the advertising platform aligns with the growing trend of digital out-of-home (DOOH) advertising, which is becoming increasingly popular in Canada and globally. By leveraging restroom spaces as a medium for targeted campaigns, building owners can tap into a lucrative market while enhancing the overall user experience.
