The Rise of the Shower Toilet: LAUFEN CLEANET
For both architects and users, the bathroom is increasingly regarded as a sanctuary of comfort and wellbeing. Whether in private residences or hospitality projects, the most transformative innovation currently redefining contemporary bathroom culture is the shower toilet — where design precision and advanced technology converge to elevate personal rituals to a new level of refinement.
Exceptional functionality with CLEANET ALVIA; automatic premium functions including open and closing of the seat and cover, activation of ambient lighting, and air purification.
For LAUFEN, the Swiss manufacturer renowned for its precise ceramics and continuous innovation, the CLEANET collection epitomises this dual expertise. Each model demonstrates how advanced engineering can be seamlessly concealed within elegant ceramic forms, ensuring architectural purity of line while providing high-end functionality.
At first glance, CLEANET shower toilets are indistinguishable from traditional WCs, with seamless ceramic surfaces that conceal their advanced technology. This deliberate design approach allows them to integrate harmoniously into any architectural language, giving architects and designers the freedom to specify with confidence across projects of every scale and style.
The operating concept is intentionally pared back for simplicity. Exterior controls provide intuitive access to a range of cleansing functions, while a unique smartphone app allows for further personalisation. Users can adjust water temperature, pressure, and spray modes, as well as manage profiles and maintenance notifications.
At the heart of the premium WCs are versatile, intuitive shower functions which can be operated on the ceramic body or via a smartphone app
CLEANET RIVA and CLEANET NAVIA, designed by Peter Wirz of Vetica, exemplify this philosophy of purity, freshness, and comfort. They are now joined by LAUFEN’s latest additions — CLEANET AURIA, CLEANET ALVIA, CLEANET MEDA, and CLEANET PRO — broadening the collection to meet diverse demands of style, performance, and budget. Together, the CLEANET portfolio offers architects a comprehensive solution for projects ranging from premium private residences to multi-unit housing and high-quality hospitality environments.
