The Awards recognise organisations within Australia’s design and construction industry that have produced energy efficient and sustainable buildings, landscapes or products.

Finalists were judged on several criteria, including water, energy and resource efficiency, recycled content and materials, and areas of innovation.

The Caroma Flex Invisi Series II® suite is the only product of its kind on the Australian market designed for multi-purpose replacement applications in commercial buildings. Flex delivers an advanced and cost effective option to accelerate the retrofitting of commercial premises, which are generally heavy water users.

Flex features a unique bracket with adjustable inlet and outlet connections to suit a range of existing set outs, making old, 11-12 litre inefficient pans easier to retrofit. This installation flexibility reduces the need to relocate plumbing and knock down walls, helping lower installation costs and making previously cost prohibitive retrofits possible.

The Flex pan has been specially developed to work with the Invisi Series II® in-wall cistern, a breakthrough in concealed cistern technology and water efficiency. Incorporating award-winning Caroma Smartflush® 4.5/3 litre technology, Flex can help reduce water consumption by up to 70 per cent, compared with an 11 litre single flush toilet.

Adding to its sustainable credentials, the Flex pan, which is made from vitreous china, can be crushed at the end of its life for building aggregate or road base. The plastic cisterns can also be recycled for the 65 per cent polypropylene component.

The Flex Invisi Series II® toilet suite was developed in Australia by Caroma Dorf, a leader in the development of water-saving bathroom fixtures. Caroma is at the forefront of product innovation having pioneered the development of award-winning Smartflush® toilets suites, Australia’s first WELS 5 star rated toilet suite – the Profile 5 with Integrated Hand Basin and Australia’s first WELS 6 star rated urinal – the Caroma Cube 0.8 Urinal Suite.
