How flexaport came about
Flexibility when camping is very important to many people. But no matter how flexible we are: everything that goes in at the top must eventually come out at the bottom. And when camping, this is often not as easy as at home: press the flush, and it's gone – never to be seen, smelled, or touched again...
A chemical toilet already makes life on the road much easier – but the overall concept with all the chemical and disposal issues is unfortunately not very sustainable. For those who like to camp off the beaten path, disposal becomes a regular challenge.
Many who look into the topic end up with a sustainable alternative: the dry separating toilet ("DST").
We also saw this as a better solution but were looking for a more cost-effective and simpler option. So we developed a system that can be integrated into existing chemical toilets.
Of course, there were some initial reservations about this idea: Women have trouble with "aiming". Is the insert practical with toddlers? How and where do you dispose of the filled bags? After 4 days of use, however, everyone got used to it and handled it well. The looming unpleasant emptying of a full cassette was also enough incentive for everyone to throw their own little bag in the residual waste.
We made the first prototypes in our workshop. What started as an idea for our own use quickly grew into a small but fine company with now 5 employees. Due to high demand, our inserts have been further improved and adapted to many different toilet models. Nowadays, our products are precisely cut, milled, and lasered in the Lake Constance region – all "Made at Lake Constance".
With flexaport, we want to simplify the camping experience and make it more sustainable with less chemical use: less chemistry, more flexibility, and above all: a clean, odor-free solution.
Following the motto: flexible and elegant, no stink on hand! :o)
