R&D Projects undertaken by ATIRA


This project on Modular Toilet, was aimed at addressing the pressing hygiene challenges faced by communities from urban areas as well remote regions.  Everyone deserves access to safe and hygienic sanitation facilities and this achievement therefore, is a significant milestone in our journey towards creating sustainable and accessible sanitation solutions.

 

Some key features of the Modular Toilet can be listed as below:

    1. Customizable and scalable modules that can be adapted to diverse settings and user needs
    2. Structure made from Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) and Pultruded Composite Frame
    3. Based on Twin-pit pour-flush design
    4. Easy to Install
    5. Faster Installation. Can be installed in 4 hrs
    6. Resistant to fire and UV rays
    7. Durable and easy to maintain

 

Our patented Modular Toilet would open up an array of possibilities from improving public health to promoting sustainability and advancing global sanitation initiatives

Jute a wonder and eco-fibre is the raw material for one of India’s oldest Industries. Jute fiber possess many  advantages over synthetic fibers like low cost, high abundance, and reasonable mechanical properties. Jute based  bio and hybrid composites have been widely used in the numerous applications such as building and construction  sector, automotive and sports industries etc.  

 

Jute fiber composites are also aesthetically poor and limiting its application in furniture and interior partition  application. To overcome the drawbacks of conventional jute and to increase the application horizon, there arises  a need of an improved thermoset jute composites with better mechanical properties specifically, impact strength  and aesthetics. Therefore, the invention is presented development of Jute based hybrid composites with  combination of polypropylene tape, Stainless steel, Glass mesh, Cotton fabric, Brown craft paper, White craft  paper, printed design paper with improved mechanical properties and aesthetics. 

 

ATIRA Ahmadabad granted patent on the development of ThermosetJute based hybrid composites with improved  properties and aesthetics.
