Hygiene in the Bathroom

26 Mar 2025

In modern bathrooms, design, comfort, health, and sustainability are key priorities for consumers, with hygiene standards and easy-to-clean surfaces becoming increasingly essential decision factors.

Sanitary products and consumer demands have changed a lot in terms of hygiene in recent years: innovative surfaces, the shower toilet and changed standards for ensuring drinking water quality meet the customer's desire for a balance between personal hygiene, comfort and ease of cleaning. The bathroom must not only function, but also look good. In the current VDS basic study #germanbathrooms, 93% of respondents stated that they wanted to pay particular attention to hygiene and ease of care when redesigning their bathroom. And the issue behind the wall is also more topical than ever (keyword: legionella). VDS Managing Director Jens J. Wischmann discusses what else is needed for a hygienic bathroom with his guests.

This panel was supported by VDS - Vereinigung Deutsche Sanitärwirtschaft e.V.
