The secret lies in TECE’s toilet modules that offer improved operation comfort, better hygiene, lower installation height and more design freedom for every type of project.

Bringing a sense of luxury in utilitarian spaces like the bathroom requires expertise and care. Countertop washbasins are sought after for creating an upscale feel with their seamless design and harmonious surfaces. But there’s more than meets the eye when designing the bathroom. Scale and proportion are vital to ensuring form and function go hand in hand. That can be made truly possible when the solutions are available.
With conventional toilet cisterns typically too tall for this, such toilet modules make it virtually impossible to place the toilet and countertop washbasin at the same level. How then do you integrate the washbasin with the toilet in a seamless way that puts aesthetic at the centre?

German sanitary installation systems company, TECE, provides the answer. It is the first and only company in the Singapore market to produce a 750-millimetre cistern tank height. With the reduction of 70 millimetres from the conventional 820 millimetres, interior designers and architects have a solid start to creating a harmonious bathroom that also maximises space.
In addition, TECE offers a compatibility feature where all its cisterns seamlessly integrate with both manual and pneumatic TECE flush plates. Property owners enjoy greater flexibility to renovate and upgrade their TECE flush plates even years later.

As an independent, family-owned enterprise, TECE has been innovating sanitary solutions and expanding its reach to more than 70 countries with four core categories: sanitary products, drainage systems, piping systems, and plumbing frameworks. TECE serves the Singapore market with a quality range of sanitary products and drainage systems, including concealed cisterns, flush plates, water closets, washbasins, and innovative shower channels.
A highlight is the TECEone shower toilet, an exclusive design that sets itself apart. The TECEone is a self-contained design that does not require external electric source – it operates solely on water pressure. With solutions that challenge industry norms, TECE aims to empower designers and architects to create spaces that truly enhance the bathroom experience.
