Roca’s Avant Toilet Maximizes Bathroom Layouts Through Integrated Solution
Roca has launched the Avant, an all‑in‑one toilet that embeds the cistern within the bowl, shaving roughly 20 cm off the unit’s depth. The design, available in wall‑hung and floor‑standing versions, uses the Venturi effect to deliver a flush that is about 15% quieter than conventional models. An electric variant ensures reliable performance even when water pressure is low, while the Rimless Vortex® system and Supraglaze® finish enhance hygiene and durability. The integrated solution simplifies installation, reducing the need for extensive wall modifications for new builds and renovations.
