Giving peace of mind to customers for 35 years and counting

Since the cabin is without plumbing, the Excel was and is ideal. It looks good and everyone can use it without a problem. It has serviced a large group (12) on a given day and is odorless. We are so glad we found this system, otherwise we would not have purchased our “get-a-way”.

This one is newly installed after we finally retired our (Sun-Mar) Bowli X-L after 15 years of full-time residential use (family of 4). Needless to say, we were pleased with the product. Yeah, we had to “learn” the ropes of good composting, but I wonder how many times a plumber would be called to a flush toilet disaster in fifteen years! Had we had a dissatisfactory experience with the product, I can assure you, I would not have bought another!! We look forward to 15 more years of happy composting with our ecologically sound Excel toilet system.

We’ve been using the outhouse for over 60 years at our cabin in the Adirondack mountains of northern NY & still do not have running water. We really appreciate the Sun-Mar Excel, especially on cold early spring mornings and late fall mornings. Installation on the second floor was easy with no expense for septic system or water system. Has worked well with 10-12 people in the cabin for 2 week stays in the summer.

Sun-Mar toilets are the gold standard in composting toilet solutions worldwide


There is only one performance standard for composting toilets in North America. This is National Sanitation Foundation NSF/ANSI Standard #41. 

Sun-Mar is certified by the NSF under this stringent standard. Testing is conducted for 6 months at a NSF recognized, independent testing laboratory under a strict test protocol. 

To be certified, the unit must operate odor-free at maximum capacity (including overload conditions) and produce clean, safe compost. 

What you need to know about Composting Toilets

As additional verification, NSF obtains and tests additional compost samples from randomly selected field operations, and conducts interviews with the users of these units. For verification, please check the NSF website. 

NSF International is a not for profit, non-governmental organization. It is the world leader in standards development, product certification, education and risk management for public health and safety, and for 75 years has been committed to public health, safety, and protection of the environment.
