Foreign Mobile Toilet Cleaning Standards
Foreign mobile toilet cleaning standards mainly include the following:

I. BS ISO 24599 Standard This standard was issued by the British Standards Institution (BSI) on October 25, 2024. It is formulated based on the framework of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and aims to provide operational guidelines for the management of mobile toilets during pandemics. Its core contents include:
- Safety and Cleanliness: It emphasizes ensuring the safe use of mobile toilets during public health events through design, installation, and daily operational measures, such as optimizing ventilation systems to reduce the risk of pathogen transmission.
- Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Management: It requires cleaning personnel to be equipped with standard protective gear and establishes strict disinfection procedures, including regular disinfection of the interior surfaces, handles, and waste tanks of the toilets.
- Waste Disposal and Environmental Assessment: It standardizes the classification, collection, and disposal processes for liquid and solid waste. It also requires an assessment of the environmental impact of mobile toilets, such as whether wastewater discharge complies with local environmental protection standards.
- Applicable Scenarios: It covers temporary sanitation facility needs in emergency rescue, public events, construction sites, and remote communities.
II. ISO 24599:2025 Standard Issued by the Netherlands Standardization Institute, this standard focuses on the management of electric mobile toilets during major public health emergencies. Its characteristics are as follows:
- Multi-perspective Guidelines: It defines the responsibilities of all parties from the perspectives of users, operators, and suppliers. For example, suppliers are required to ensure the stability of water and electricity connections for the toilets, and operators are required to develop emergency cleaning plans.
- Safe and Hygienic Services: It recommends providing specialized training for users, cleaning personnel, and waste tank drivers. For example, cleaning personnel need to master the ratio and spraying techniques of disinfectants to reduce the risk of cross-infection.
- Scope of Application: It is only applicable to respiratory and intestinal infectious disease pandemics, excluding events such as diseases of unknown origin and food poisoning, demonstrating the targeted nature of the standard.
III. Japanese Corporate Standard Jointly promoted by Hamanetz Company and Beidou Company, this standard takes a 'user perspective' as its core and includes the following characteristics:
- Skill Certification System: It evaluates the skills of cleaning personnel through the 'Temporary Toilet Cleaning Improvement Committee' and issues certifications to those who pass, enhancing the professionalism of the industry.
- Cleaning Process Optimization: It adopts high-efficiency deodorants and traceless cleaning techniques to minimize odors and stains. For example, it uses biological enzymes to decompose urine scale, reducing chemical residues.
- Sensory Experience Standards: It requires that cleaned toilets achieve a 'clean and intuitive feeling', such as no water stains on the floor and no odors in the air, to improve user satisfaction.
