On-site sanitation facilities including pit latrines and septic tanks serve 1.77 billion people around the world. In the absence of solid waste management services and infrastructure, these facilities fill up with trash, making them difficult to empty safely.
The prohibitive cost of exhauster trucks and trash in latrines force people to empty pits by hand with buckets and shovels. This dangerous job exposes workers to pathogens and discrimination.
We’ve created the Excluder to revolutionize the pit-emptying industry.
The Excluder is a patented screen that attaches to pumps and exhauster trucks and keeps trash out of expensive equipment
