Leaving the lid open after use can quickly encourage bacteria to grow and make your bathroom less hygienic.

The consequences of an open lid:

  • Water splashes that leave marks and promote humidity.
  • Accelerated development of bacteria on all surfaces.
  • Unpleasant odors that spread freely.

Closing the toilet seat helps keep your bathroom clean, fresh and more pleasant every day.

An ecological gesture to preserve water

Closing the lid before flushing also contributes to better water management.

For what ?

  • Less water evaporation in the bowl, reducing the need to flush multiple times.
  • Fewer chemicals are needed to clean the bathroom, meaning less water pollution.

A small gesture that has an ecological impact.

A touch of aesthetics and discretion

A toilet with a closed lid is immediately more elegant.

In a tidy and pleasant bathroom, a lowered toilet seat gives a clean and tidy impression. No one likes to see an open toilet when they enter the room.

In addition to being more hygienic, it is also a question of aesthetics and respect for shared space.

In short: closing the toilet lid is…

  • Limit the spread of bacteria and protect your health.
  • Keep a cleaner, more pleasant bathroom.
  • Prevent the spread of bad odors.
  • Adopt an ecological gesture by reducing evaporation and the use of chemicals.
  • Bring a touch of order and aesthetics to your bathroom.

A simple reflex that makes a difference! So, think about it next time.
