The Towa gold jug is not just a clever combination of toilet and watering can – it is a well-thought-out tool for sustainable cultivation and resource efficiency. The ergonomic design makes it comfortable to sit on and easy to carry even when full. With a volume of around 10 litres, you get plenty of gold water – a natural fertiliser rich in nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, which your plants love.
Towa consists of five separate parts that can be quickly disassembled for easy cleaning and convenient transport, perfect for both the garden and the summer cottage. The hygienic design ensures a fresh experience, while the discreet and stylish appearance means it blends into any environment.
By using Towa and gold water, you help reduce eutrophication, save the earth's resources and close the cycle - in a convenient, practical and environmentally friendly way.
The Towa gold jug is a smart and sustainable investment for the environmentally conscious grower. Made in Sweden from recyclable plastic without harmful substances, it combines practical ergonomics with a long lifespan. By enabling the use of urine as plant nutrition, it promotes a natural cycle and reduces the need for artificial fertilizers. With climate-smart production, sustainable packaging and responsible logistics, Towa is not just a tool – it is an active choice for a greener future.
The Towa gold jug is carefully designed with a focus on ergonomics, function and durabilityEvery part is designed to make use as easy and comfortable as possible – both when collecting pee and when watering with the golden water.
The smart combination of toilet and water jug saves you unnecessary effort or extra tools. The handle is positioned to provide a stable grip and good balance when lifting and emptying. The shape of the jug makes it easy to sit on, regardless of body size, and the height is adapted to function as a comfortable seat in the garden or greenhouse.
The material is light but robust, which makes Towa easy to carry even when full, and the opening is designed to minimize spillage during collection and irrigation. It also holds just the right amount of liquid to be both practical and manageable.
Towa has been developed with the help of research, user testing and experience – all to ensure that it works in everyday life and makes it easy to take advantage of nature's resources. It is a well-thought-out product where every detail contributes to a smooth, hygienic and sustainable user experience.
The Towa Gold Jug has been developed with the support of prominent researchers and institutions, particularly Professor Håkan Jönsson at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU). As an expert in life cycle and environmental technology, Jönsson has long researched the use of urine as a plant nutrient. He emphasizes that fertilizing with urine is an ancient and natural method that can yield up to seven times greater yields compared to unfertilized crops.
SLU research shows that soil effectively breaks down pharmaceutical residues in urine, making golden water safe to use in the garden. This support from academia has been crucial in ensuring that the Towa Gold Pitcher is both practical and environmentally sustainable.
Designer Åsa Lövberg has, with the help of this research, created an ergonomic and sustainable product that promotes a natural cycle in the garden. The Towa gold jug is therefore not only a smart solution for fertilization, but also the result of scientific collaboration for a greener future.
Research shows that you can get up to seven times better harvests by using gold water – a mixture of urine and water – as plant nutrition. Urine naturally contains nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, the same substances found in artificial fertilizers, but without the negative environmental effects. When you water with gold water, you give your plants a nutrient-rich supplement directly from your own household, while reducing waste and closing the cycle. It is not only effective – it is also sustainable, resource-efficient and completely free. In the company Guldkannan AB, we have researchers at SLU who have dedicated their entire research career to studying just this. Therefore, with strong support from research, we can say that you get up to 7 times better harvests with gold water!
The Towa gold jug is a clear example of how function and environmental awareness can go hand in hand. It is manufactured in Sweden, which not only ensures high quality but also reduces transport distances and thus climate impact. By choosing local production at Mälarplast in Eskilstuna, the company can have close contact with the manufacturer and ensure that working conditions, material selection and environmental impact meet high standards.
The material – recyclable polypropylene – is free from harmful additives and carefully selected to be both durable and chemically resistant to urine. This means that the product lasts a long time and functions optimally for its purpose. In addition, both the packaging and distribution are planned with care for the environment, from climate-smart packaging to transport with a sustainability profile.
The fact that the Towa Gold Jug is Swedish-produced with environmentally friendly choices means that you as a user can feel safe investing in a product that takes responsibility - for both function and future.
Nitrogen-rich fertilizer is an important component to promote healthy plant growth and to optimize yields. When you fertilize with gold water, you not only give them a nitrogen-rich fertilizer, but also all the other substances the plants need, namely phosphorus and potassium. This is also called NPK. The ultimate combination of nutrients to provide extra nutrition to plants and increase yields in a natural way, while contributing to a more sustainable production of food and crops.
