Smart Toilet Market Overview
The Smart toilet market is growing rapidly as there is growing demand for hygiene, automation, and sustainability across residential, commercial, and healthcare sectors. Key players like Toto Ltd., Kohler Co., Roca Sanitario S.A., LIXIL Group Corporation, and GWA Group Limited are adding sensor-based flushing, self-cleaning, heated seats, and health monitoring functionality to their offerings.
Supported by AI and IoT, these innovations offer customized comfort, water savings, and real-time diagnosis. With widespread adoption in the Asia-Pacific region and growing adoption in North America and Europe, these companies are ramping up R&D and collaboration to fuel the international smart sanitation tide.
Smart Toilet Market Growth Factors and Dynamics
Increased Hygiene Consciousness: Public mindsets regarding hygiene have changed miraculously over the past two years, with much more focus given to reducing exposure to possibly germ-grimed surfaces. As germ-transmission points, bathrooms have undergone a revolution in their concept and operation.
Hands-free smart toilets, featuring UV sterilization, automatic flush, etc., are being more and more considered as luxury items and necessary sanitary tools. Buyers are switching more to those that enable the provision of day-by-day cleansing with little by-hand handling.
In August 2024, the Financial Times article 'Toilet wars: the race for the quietest flush' illustrates the competitive challenge to toilet manufacturers to create quiet flushing systems since consumers are wanting less noisy bathroom activity and increased controls on the noise in some regions. The article covers the technology and business innovations the firms are taking to outcompete each other in this fairly small but fast-growing segment of the home improvement market.
Urbanization & Smart Homes: Urbanization and the proliferation of smart homes have played a critical role in driving the consumption of smart toilets. With urbanization, population is increasing in cities, and hence demand for creative, efficient, and space-saving bathroom facilities is on the increase.

Smart toilets, with their multi-functional features and sleek designs, are accommodating to the urban dwellers' style who prefer convenience and luxury. Besides, home automation integration of smart toilets makes it possible for users to control and customize their bathroom experience with ease. For instance, in January 2025, wealthy Indians are shelling out more on high-end bathroom experiences, and some are splurging on high-cost smart toilets costing up to $18,500 (about 1.6 million rupees) with voice assistants like Alexa, ambient audio, and advanced hygiene features.
This is all part of a broader surge in demand for high-end smart home technology and luxurious amenities among India's high-end consumers, driven by rising disposable incomes, urbanization, and the desire for convenience and comfort in day-to-day living. Though these high-end products are unaffordable for most, success with them is helping to fuel innovation and steer India's smart bathroom market's future.
Growing Ageing Population: The growth in the ageing population is driving demand for intelligent toilets that will encourage comfort and security. Seat level adjustment, lid closing, and bidet functionality all allow older citizens to maintain independence, prevent falls, and require less support from caregivers. Increasingly, they are being adopted in homes as well as elderly citizens' facilities to promote improved hygiene and quality of life.
For example, Toi Labs' TrueLoo, listed as one of TIME's 200 Best Inventions of 2024, is an artificially intelligent toilet seat that scans and analyzes stool and urine to track users' health in October 2024. Designed to look and function like a normal toilet seat, TrueLoo is installable on normal toilets and is already installed in over 50 senior living communities, where it reports health alerts and information to caregivers directly.
The company intends to release a user-centric app at some point in the future, which would simplify frequent, non-obtrusive health monitoring as simple as sitting down, offering an active means of sensing early health changes.

Smart Toilet Market SWOT Analysis
Strengths: Smart toilets offer a combination of convenience, hygiene, and water conservation that is appealing to hordes of consumers. Auto-flush, warm seats, a bidet feature, and self-cleaning priority features make them a luxury bathroom solution. Strong brands such as Toto Ltd., Kohler Co., and LIXIL Group have also established strong brand identity, enabling them to control innovation and consumer trust.
Weaknesses: High prices and complicated fitting processes are significant barriers to the adoption of intelligent toilets, especially in the developing world. Power connection, and associated plumbing supply, is a maintenance barrier. Technical support and training in the country or developing regions could be preventing market access.
Opportunities: There is increasing consumer and commercial demand for smart bathroom solutions, particularly in the wake of COVID-19, with increased sensitivity to hygiene. The ageing population globally also presents opportunities for senior-friendly smart toilet designs. Further, urbanization expansion and smart city development in countries such as the Asia-Pacific and the Middle East provide fertile ground for expansion.
Threats: Economic downturns, particularly in the Third World, can discourage consumers from spending on expensive bathroom fixtures. Intense competition from traditional toilet makers and inexpensive alternatives is also a threat. Moreover, cybersecurity issues, as much as networked devices and data security, are also likely to have an effect on consumer confidence regarding fully integrated smart systems.

Smart Toilet Market Regional Perspective
The Smart Toilet Market can be divided across different regions such as North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA. This is a cursory overview of each region:
North America: North America, particularly the U.S., is at the forefront of smart home technology adoption, including smart toilets. Based on high disposable income and an emphasis on hygiene and water conservation, there is increasing demand for smart bathroom solutions with advanced features such as heated seats, bidet functionality, and integration with home automation. For example, in March 2024, Kohler introduced the limited-series Formation 02 smart toilet, in partnership with artist-designer Dr. Samuel Ross and his studio SR_A, during Milan Design Week 2024. Designed by inspiration from the movement and energy of water, the toilet has a striking brutalist design with striking angles and bold Haptic Orange color. It features premium features such as a heated seat, personalized cleansing, a nightlight, hands-free operation, auto-flush, and a touchscreen remote. An interactive installation, "Terminal 02," at FuoriSalone, followed the introduction, highlighting the integration of water, design, and engineering. Formation 02 is sold in limited numbers via sra.kohler.com, upholding Kohler's tradition for imaginative, aesthetic bathroom solutions.
Europe: The adoption of smart toilets in Europe has experienced consistent growth, driven by urbanization, growing concern towards the environment, and technological advancements in bathroom facilities. Germany, Italy, and the UK are among the most important countries where consumers expect bathroom products to be both sustainable and effective. Fast-growing urban populations are driving the demand for smart, space-saving, and water-saving products, including touchless toilets that feature advanced hygiene capabilities. This means the conversion of the area into high-tech, eco-friendly products in harmony with nature-friendly living.
Asia-Pacific: Asia-Pacific is one of the most important markets for the smart toilet market, with Japan, China, and South Korea being quoted. There has been a strong social culture with a focus on hygienic conditions and technological innovations, and this has resulted in top-notch bathroom facility demand. The region boasts a high-achieving industry and a growing middle class. To take a specific example, Nagpur Municipal Corporation installed a new smart toilet with amenities like air conditioning, sensor-controlled smart doors, ladies' and gentlemen's toilets and change rooms, and solar panels to derive power from sunlight at Walkers Street in Civil Lines in October 2024. The premises also have hand dryers, a washbasin, a staff restroom, and a landscaped backdrop for additional beautification. Urinals are available for free, while using the toilets and shower facilities incurs a low charge. The smart toilet is expected to offer cleanliness, convenience, and comfort, with the maintenance personnel and other amenities such as a dinosaur photo point for kids around.
LAMEA: The LAMEA region is slowly embracing smart toilets with the help of urbanization, increasing disposable incomes, and increased awareness towards hygiene and sustainability. Though the market remains in its infancy stage, Brazil and the UAE are poised to take advantage of sophisticated bathroom technology. Brazilian consumers are looking for sophisticated, effective bathroom technologies, and there is increasing demand for advanced bathroom solutions. They like products offering convenience and hygiene. Similarly, luxury and smart home technologies' focus in the UAE has resulted in smart toilet popularity growing in upscale residential and commercial developments. This market will probably sustain its steady uptake as knowledge and infrastructure improve.

UBS statement on regulatory proposals made by the Swiss government

ZURICH, June 06, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News: UBS (NYSE:UBS) (SWX:UBSN): Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Article 53 of the SIX Exchange Regulation Listing Rules UBS supports in principle most of the regulatory proposals the Swiss Federal Council published today.1 However, UBS strongly disagrees with the extreme increase in capital requirements that has been proposed. These changes would result in capital requirements that are neither proportionate nor internationally aligned. The proposals would require UBS to fully deduct investments in foreign subsidiaries from its CET1 capital. UBS would also need to fully deduct deferred tax assets on temporary differences (TD DTAs) and capitalized software from its CET1 capital. Furthermore, the proposals would necessitate an increase in prudential valuation adjustments (PVAs). Based on published financial information from the first quarter of 2025, and given UBS AG's target CET1 capital ratio of between 12.5% and 13%, UBS AG would be required to hold additional estimated CET1 capital of around USD 24bn on a pro-forma basis, if the recommendations are implemented as proposed. This includes around USD 23bn related to the full deduction of UBS AG's investments in foreign subsidiaries. These pro-forma figures also reflect previously announced expected capital repatriations of around USD 5bn. The incremental CET1 capital of around USD 24bn required at UBS AG would result in a CET1 capital ratio at the UBS Group AG (consolidated) level of around 19%. At Group level, the proposed measures related to TD DTAs, capitalized software and PVAs would eliminate capital recognition for these items in a manner misaligned with international standards. This would reduce the CET1 capital ratio at UBS Group to around 17%, underrepresenting UBS's capital strength. Further information is available at The additional capital of USD 24bn would be in addition to the previously communicated incremental capital of around USD 18bn UBS will have to hold as a result of the acquisition of Credit Suisse in order to meet existing regulations. This includes about USD 9bn to remove the regulatory concessions granted to Credit Suisse and around USD 9bn to meet the current progressive requirements due to the enlarged size of the combined business. As a result, UBS would be required to hold about USD 42bn in additional CET1 capital in total. As none of the regulatory changes are expected to become effective before 2027, UBS Group AG maintains its target of achieving an underlying return on CET1 capital of around 15% and an underlying cost/income ratio of <70% by the end of 2026 (both on an exit rate basis). UBS will provide an update on its longer-term returns targets when there is more clarity on the timing of potential changes and when the likely final outcome becomes more visible. ________________________________ [1] The proposals are available on the website of the Swiss government at UBS also reaffirms its capital return intentions for 2025. These include accruing for an increase of around 10% in the ordinary dividend per share and repurchasing up to USD 2bn of shares in the second half of the year, for a total of up to USD 3bn. This plan continues to be subject to UBS Group maintaining a CET1 capital ratio target of around 14% and achieving its financial targets and is consistent with UBS's previously communicated plans and conservative approach. UBS will communicate its 2026 capital returns ambitions with its fourth quarter and full-year financial results for 2025. UBS will actively engage in the consultation process with all relevant stakeholders and contribute to evaluating alternatives and effective solutions that lead to regulatory change proposals with a reasonable cost/benefit outcome. UBS will also evaluate appropriate measures, if and where possible, to address the negative effects that extreme regulations would have on its shareholders. As the largest truly global wealth manager and leading bank in Switzerland, with competitive global investment bank and asset management capabilities, UBS brings financial stability, expertise, economic benefits and international know-how to its home country and to all its clients globally. UBS remains committed to its diversified business model and its unique regional footprint as well as successfully completing the integration of Credit Suisse in the best interest of all stakeholders. UBS is reviewing the substantial amount of information published today and will share its further assessment in due course. Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements This news release contains statements that constitute "forward-looking statements," including but not limited to management's outlook for UBS's financial performance, statements relating to the anticipated effect of transactions and strategic initiatives on UBS's business and future development and goals or intentions to achieve climate, sustainability and other social objectives. While these forward-looking statements represent UBS's judgments, expectations and objectives concerning the matters described, a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors could cause actual developments and results to differ materially from UBS's expectations. In particular, the global economy may suffer significant adverse effects from increasing political tensions between world powers, changes to international trade policies, including those related to tariffs and trade barriers, and ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, as well as the continuing Russia–Ukraine war. UBS's acquisition of the Credit Suisse Group has materially changed its outlook and strategic direction and introduced new operational challenges. The integration of the Credit Suisse entities into the UBS structure is expected to continue through 2026 and presents significant operational and execution risk, including the risks that UBS may be unable to achieve the cost reductions and business benefits contemplated by the transaction, that it may incur higher costs to execute the integration of Credit Suisse and that the acquired business may have greater risks or liabilities than expected. Following the failure of Credit Suisse, Switzerland is considering significant changes to its capital, resolution and regulatory regime, which, if proposed and adopted, may significantly increase our capital requirements or impose other costs on UBS. These factors create greater uncertainty about forward-looking statements. Other factors that may affect UBS's performance and ability to achieve its plans, outlook and other objectives also include, but are not limited to: (i) the degree to which UBS is successful in the execution of its strategic plans, including its cost reduction and efficiency initiatives and its ability to manage its levels of risk-weighted assets (RWA) and leverage ratio denominator (LRD), liquidity coverage ratio and other financial resources, including changes in RWA assets and liabilities arising from higher market volatility and the size of the combined Group; (ii) the degree to which UBS is successful in implementing changes to its businesses to meet changing market, regulatory and other conditions; (iii) inflation and interest rate volatility in major markets; (iv) developments in the macroeconomic climate and in the markets in which UBS operates or to which it is exposed, including movements in securities prices or liquidity, credit spreads, currency exchange rates, residential and commercial real estate markets, general economic conditions, and changes to national trade policies on the financial position or creditworthiness of UBS's clients and counterparties, as well as on client sentiment and levels of activity; (v) changes in the availability of capital and funding, including any adverse changes in UBS's credit spreads and credit ratings of UBS, as well as availability and cost of funding to meet requirements for debt eligible for total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC); (vi) changes in central bank policies or the implementation of financial legislation and regulation in Switzerland, the US, the UK, the EU and other financial centers that have imposed, or resulted in, or may do so in the future, more stringent or entity-specific capital, TLAC, leverage ratio, net stable funding ratio, liquidity and funding requirements, heightened operational resilience requirements, incremental tax requirements, additional levies, limitations on permitted activities, constraints on remuneration, constraints on transfers of capital and liquidity and sharing of operational costs across the Group or other measures, and the effect these will or would have on UBS's business activities; (vii) UBS's ability to successfully implement resolvability and related regulatory requirements and the potential need to make further changes to the legal structure or booking model of UBS in response to legal and regulatory requirements and any additional requirements due to its acquisition of the Credit Suisse Group, or other developments; (viii) UBS's ability to maintain and improve its systems and controls for complying with sanctions in a timely manner and for the detection and prevention of money laundering to meet evolving regulatory requirements and expectations, in particular in the current geopolitical turmoil; (ix) the uncertainty arising from domestic stresses in certain major economies; (x) changes in UBS's competitive position, including whether differences in regulatory capital and other requirements among the major financial centers adversely affect UBS's ability to compete in certain lines of business; (xi) changes in the standards of conduct applicable to its businesses that may result from new regulations or new enforcement of existing standards, including measures to impose new and enhanced duties when interacting with customers and in the execution and handling of customer transactions; (xii) the liability to which UBS may be exposed, or possible constraints or sanctions that regulatory authorities might impose on UBS, due to litigation, contractual claims and regulatory investigations, including the potential for disqualification from certain businesses, potentially large fines or monetary penalties, or the loss of licenses or privileges as a result of regulatory or other governmental sanctions, as well as the effect that litigation, regulatory and similar matters have on the operational risk component of its RWA; (xiii) UBS's ability to retain and attract the employees necessary to generate revenues and to manage, support and control its businesses, which may be affected by competitive factors; (xiv) changes in accounting or tax standards or policies, and determinations or interpretations affecting the recognition of gain or loss, the valuation of goodwill, the recognition of deferred tax assets and other matters; (xv) UBS's ability to implement new technologies and business methods, including digital services, artificial intelligence and other technologies, and ability to successfully compete with both existing and new financial service providers, some of which may not be regulated to the same extent; (xvi) limitations on the effectiveness of UBS's internal processes for risk management, risk control, measurement and modeling, and of financial models generally; (xvii) the occurrence of operational failures, such as fraud, misconduct, unauthorized trading, financial crime, cyberattacks, data leakage and systems failures, the risk of which is increased with persistently high levels of cyberattack threats; (xviii) restrictions on the ability of UBS Group AG, UBS AG and regulated subsidiaries of UBS AG to make payments or distributions, including due to restrictions on the ability of its subsidiaries to make loans or distributions, directly or indirectly, or, in the case of financial difficulties, due to the exercise by FINMA or the regulators of UBS's operations in other countries of their broad statutory powers in relation to protective measures, restructuring and liquidation proceedings; (xix) the degree to which changes in regulation, capital or legal structure, financial results or other factors may affect UBS's ability to maintain its stated capital return objective; (xx) uncertainty over the scope of actions that may be required by UBS, governments and others for UBS to achieve goals relating to climate, environmental and social matters, as well as the evolving nature of underlying science and industry and the possibility of conflict between different governmental standards and regulatory regimes; (xxi) the ability of UBS to access capital markets; (xxii) the ability of UBS to successfully recover from a disaster or other business continuity problem due to a hurricane, flood, earthquake, terrorist attack, war, conflict, pandemic, security breach, cyberattack, power loss, telecommunications failure or other natural or man-made event; and (xxiii) the effect that these or other factors or unanticipated events, including media reports and speculations, may have on its reputation and the additional consequences that this may have on its business and performance. The sequence in which the factors above are presented is not indicative of their likelihood of occurrence or the potential magnitude of their consequences. UBS's business and financial performance could be affected by other factors identified in its past and future filings and reports, including those filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). More detailed information about those factors is set forth in documents furnished by UBS and filings made by UBS with the SEC, including the UBS Group AG and UBS AG Annual Reports on Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2024. UBS is not under any obligation to (and expressly disclaims any obligation to) update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

UBS statement on regulatory proposals made by the Swiss government

UBS (NYSE:UBS) (SWX:UBSN): Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Article 53 of the SIX Exchange Regulation Listing Rules UBS supports in principle most of the regulatory proposals the Swiss Federal Council published today. 1 However, UBS strongly disagrees with the extreme increase in capital requirements that has been proposed. These changes would result in capital requirements that are neither proportionate nor internationally aligned. The proposals would require UBS to fully deduct investments in foreign subsidiaries from its CET1 capital. UBS would also need to fully deduct deferred tax assets on temporary differences (TD DTAs) and capitalized software from its CET1 capital. Furthermore, the proposals would necessitate an increase in prudential valuation adjustments (PVAs). Based on published financial information from the first quarter of 2025, and given UBS AG's target CET1 capital ratio of between 12.5% and 13%, UBS AG would be required to hold additional estimated CET1 capital of around USD 24bn on a pro-forma basis, if the recommendations are implemented as proposed.
