ALL-IN-ONE AVANT TOILET OPTIMIZES ARCHITECTURAL SPACE

 

The Avant by Roca is an all-in-one toilet solution, leveraging a minimalist aesthetic to suit a diverse range of bathroom layouts and styles. Its primary innovation lies in the integration of the cistern into the bowl – a move that adapts and simplifies the plumbing installation while reducing its flush noise. Delivering a quieter and more comfortable user experience, the toilet is available in an electric and non-electric model, both championing a sleek design and enhanced practicality.

OPTIMIZING THE  BATHROOM WITH SUSTAINABLE DESIGN

 

The innovative Avant models prioritizes safety and precision while delivering flexible, user-focused solutions. This translates the brand’s pursuit of innovation through a functional reality. Both models, floorstanding and wall-hung, feature a uniquely integrated cistern that takes up 20 cm less than conventional toilets, achieving a sleek clutter-free aesthetic. By reimagining the most utilitarian elements of the home, Roca elevates the user experience and merges daily routine with the demands of a sustainable environment.

PHYSICS OF QUIET PERFORMANCE

 

Central to Avant’s integrated system is the application of the Venturi effect – a physical principle that uses variable water flow speeds to create a natural suction effect. This engineering results in a faster and more efficient flush that is 15 percent quieter than conventional models, optimizing the home’s acoustic comfort. Its design, developed in collaboration with the French company SIAMP, is protected by a patent that ensures compliance with European safety standards, including EN1717, while three further patent applications are underway to protect its unique innovations.

The toilet is designed for technical versatility. For environments where water pressure or flow is insufficient, the Avant-E electric version ensures consistent performance even when water supply conditions are below the minimum requirements. Complementing its internal mechanism, the toilet integrates the Roca Rimless Vortex® system for splash-free hygiene and a Supraglaze® finish that prevents particle build-up. Additionally, from a construction standpoint, the integrated cistern facilitates the installation process by minimizing the need for complex wall modifications or external flush plates, providing a seamless solution for both new builds and renovations. With a legacy spanning over a century, Roca leads the industry on a global scale, operating with 78 factories across 170 countries.
