China Mobile Toilet Standards
China's mobile toilet standards mainly include dimensional standards, waterless sanitary toilet standards, and production standards for movable restrooms, as detailed below:
Dimensional Standards: The standard dimensions of mobile public toilets are typically set at 2 meters by 1.2 meters, which can meet general usage requirements. However, for accessible toilet stalls, the dimensional requirements are stricter, with a minimum clear dimension of 1.8 meters by 1.5 meters to ensure that wheelchair users can enter and use them smoothly. Additionally, accessible toilet stalls need to reserve a 1.5-meter square wheelchair turning area to facilitate flexible rotation of the wheelchair. In terms of door width, it must be at least 80 centimeters wide, and it is best to have outward-opening or electric doors to allow for quick opening in emergencies, ensuring the safety of users. For individual toilet stalls, the length generally ranges from 1 meter to 1.5 meters, and the width ranges from 85 centimeters to 1.2 meters, ensuring basic activity space for users within the stall. The common dimensions of an entire public toilet are 2 meters in length, 1.2 meters in width, and 2 meters in height, occupying an area of approximately 5 to 10 square meters. This design is convenient for transportation and temporary placement.
Waterless Sanitary Toilet Standards: Waterless sanitary toilets are commonly known as eco-friendly toilets, ecological toilets, or mobile toilets in China, with the international generic name being non-sewered sanitary toilets. The design and manufacturing of such toilets must strictly comply with the requirements of the GB/T18092 'Waterless Sanitary Toilets' standard. This standard was approved and issued on May 8, 2000, and officially implemented on October 1, 2000, providing clear specifications for the production and use of waterless sanitary toilets.
Production Standards for Movable Restrooms: The production of movable restrooms in China mainly refers to national standards such as 'GB/T 26963-2011 Mobile Toilets'. These standards provide detailed regulations on the design, manufacturing, installation, use, and maintenance of movable restrooms, ensuring their quality and safety.
