Carbon Savings
- Falcon system is much cheaper and we save a lot of CO2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Like nobody does
- Transport & treatment of 1 gallon water = 0.018 pounds CO2
- Transport & treatment of 1 cubic meter (264.172 US gallons) 4.75 pounds CO2 = 2.15 kg CO2
- The calculations are based on U.S. national average combination of energy sources (fossil fuel, nuclear and renewable).
Example:
- In a Mall you will have approx. 50 urinals.
- Every urinal will have 50 usages per day.
- That is 2.500 total usages per day. Using 4L ( one gallon of Water ) per usage, that's represent 10.000L per day or 10m3
- The mall is open 6 days per week and 52 weeks per year That's means 312 days.
- If every day they waste 10m3 in 312 days they will waste a total of 3120m3 3.120 m3 at 2, 15Kg CO2 means 6.708Kg CO2
- Using Falcon Waterfree Urinals this mall will save in one year 3.120 m3 of water and 6,708 Tons of CO2

Reduces Greenhouse Gases
- Reduces energy use associated with pumping water and sewage in multi-level buildings.
- Reduces energy demands of waste water treatment plants
Reduced energy use = Reduced CO2 emissions
18 million pounds CO2 per billion gallons of water (Pacific Institute Water-to-air model)

(cost of water may vary from place to place) Technical Details of Ceramic Bowl
Falcon ceramic bowls are made of thick walls to make it shock resistant. These are moulded between the temperature of 1100-1200 degree Celsius with a hot and dry mould. Walls are painted with Glycerin to make it non sticky. Before glazing these moulded bowls are kept in a air tight pressure chamber which are dust proof as dust causes pin holes which make the bowl weak in long run. Glazing is antibacterial . Finally bowls are tested for 24 hours to ensure there are no hair line cracks and leakages.
This quality control production system ensures long life of the urinal.
