Everything you need to know about duroplast toilet seats

How many seats have you chipped from everyday use and cleanings? Too many. That's why we recommend duroplast seats. This scratch-resistant alternative stands firm against harsh chemicals and provides longevity to its users. According to Reico, the molecules of duroplast are highly germ-inhibiting, therefore, making them great for hygiene and a longer lifespans. Once the toilet seat is molded, it's nearly impossible to crack.

Hamberger Sanitary is one among many crafters that offer classically round, D-shaped, beige, blue, or whatever funky color your heart desires, all without impacting your comfort or your toilet's lifespan.

These makeups are a lot more susceptible to warping with humidity or harsh cleaning agents, as well. Wood options are also more likely to rack up costs when it comes to adjusting hinges.
