Water-Conserving Toilet Sinks

This Sink Fits Above Toilet Tanks and Works to Save Water

— June 13, 2016 — Eco
This water-conserving toilet sink is an unusual but practical way to save water and even reduce hydro bills.

The 'SinkTwice' works by fitting over almost any toilet tank and when the "flush" button is pressed, the water from pipes comes through the tap and the user can wash their hands with it. The water from hand-washing drains into the tank, which then fills up the toilet, to be flushed away the next time someone uses it. The hope is that this water-conserving sink will save two gallons of water per person each day, which would be quite significant in the long run.

Water conservation is crucial in times of rising global temperatures and rampant droughts. SinkTwice helps to address this issue in a way that improves quality of life rather than reducing it.
Trend Themes
1. Water-conserving Products - The development of water-conserving products like SinkTwice presents an opportunity for innovation in a time when water conservation is increasingly important.
2. Dual-function Design - SinkTwice's dual-function design represents an opportunity to create products that serve multiple functions and save resources.
3. Sustainability in Small Appliances - The SinkTwice product represents an opportunity to explore sustainability in small appliances, setting the path for future innovation in this area.
Industry Implications
1. Home Appliances - The SinkTwice toilet sink product represents an opportunity for disruption in the home appliance industry, particularly in relation to water and energy conservation.
2. Plumbing - The SinkTwice toilet sink may disrupt the plumbing industry by presenting a new way of using and recycling water in toilets.
3. Sustainability - The SinkTwice toilet sink is an example of how companies in the sustainability industry can innovate to create products that work to conserve resources and improve people's quality of life.
