Benefits and Advantages
- Australia’s first self-contained carousel type composting system!
- 1 people full-time use / 2 – 3 people part-time use
- Ingenious rotational three bin batch composting system allows for maximum capacity – when one bin is full, simply move the mechanism on, and use the next bin within the system!
- Reduces waste by 70% -90%, leaving behind nutrient rich, hygienically safe compost for disposal
- 12V/3W low consumption fan and convenient drain system for any excess liquid
- Easily connects to mains power or optional solar pack (see below ‘shop section’ for our solar power kit)
- Designed for easy installation using common handyman tools
- Perfect for tiny homes and slab buildings, as no underfloor space is required

How it works
The Rota-Pod doesn’t require any underfloor clearance to be installed. The composting bin sits inside the unit, making it a great option for buildings on a slab or with not enough underfloor clearance.
No flushing is required. When a compost bin is fills up, simply move it outdoors for further composting and place the next spare bin inside the unit.
Waste turns into nutrient-rich compost that can be reused in gardens or safely disposed of.
Equipped with a convenient drain tube, the Rota-Pod drains off any excess liquid not evaporated to be dispersed via a gravel filled dispersal trench.
The vent system promotes optimal airflow, bringing in oxygen needed for aerobic composting. It keeps the toilet free of odours and reduces moisture.
There are 3 triangular bins housed in the system. When one bin is full, simply move the mechanism on and start on the next bin. Once the third bin is full, the first bin will have broken down into fertile humus. This is then emptied out in a suitable place and the bin reinserted to be used again – easy maintenance!

The waterless Rota-Pod compost toilet is a self-contained batch composting toilet system. A silent fan generates air-flow for enhanced evaporation capacity. This establishes ideal conditions for efficient break-down of the contents and guarantees completely odour-free operation.
Hemp/wood shavings is used to aid in this process and as a cover material to minimise visual/olfactory impact.
An appealing design and simplicity of use make the Rota-Pod a great choice for any location. The aerobic decomposition and evaporation functions reduce human waste to a hygienically-safe material that can be recycled back to nature without polluting the environment.
