Who are we?
The pioneers of eco-friendly public toilets
Sanisphere is a French worker cooperative (SCOP) that designs, manufactures, and installs eco-friendly public toilets, and provides associated maintenance and management services.
For over 30 years, Sanisphere has been the preferred partner for public authorities and private players wishing to offer their users high-quality public toilets, elegant, comfortable, and environmentally friendly.
Holding a portfolio of patented technologies, Sanisphere is recognized as an expert that constantly innovates to push boundaries and promote toilets that are both ecological and economical to use. Today, the company is proud to export “Made in France” expertise to various European countries.
Founded in 1991 in the heart of the Baronnies, in Drôme Provençale, Sanisphere is a company that brings together nearly 30 employees—committed experts dedicated to sustainable relief.
Our mission: to provide relief For humans and the planet
Beyond a social commitment inherent to our SCOP status, we claim a strong societal and environmental commitment.
Our company is legally committed to sustainable relief, ecological transition, and human dignity. Through the products and solutions we develop, we aim to contribute to a more respectful world by pursuing a triple ambition:
Providing universal access to dignified public toilets
Wherever people need them, including in countries facing water shortages and lack of sanitation, by offering efficient and sustainable solutions for both users and operators.
Respecting planetary boundaries by rethinking our models
Climate change reveals how precious and scarce water is. Using drinking water in toilets is not sustainable. Inventing models that reduce our impact is now a matter of common sense.
Improving humanity's resilience to climate change
By offering sanitation systems capable of limiting epidemic risks in the event of floods and natural disasters.
About The company
Our values
Innovation lies in our ability to anticipate and adapt quickly to changes, to the new expectations of our society, and to the evolving needs of our clients. We view every challenge as an opportunity to rethink existing solutions and find new and creative approaches.
Sustainability is much more than a buzzword; it is a long-term vision that guides every one of our decisions, balancing economic progress with resource preservation and social well-being, based on sincerity and responsibility toward the collective.
Commitment infuses all of our fundamental actions. This strong and structuring company value is reflected in the promises we make to our clients, in our way of thinking, and in our daily actions, from the simplest to the most complex, as well as in assuming our responsibility toward society and the planet.
Inclusion: We place particular importance on creating an environment where everyone feels valued, respected, and heard, where differences are seen as a source of richness and strength. This mindset is manifested daily through active listening and authentic representation of all voices and perspectives.
