No rim means there’s nowhere
for germs to hide.
The brilliant new
WC from Twyford.
THE DIFFERENCE IS CLEAR WITH HOW THE RIMFREE™ WC WORKS
2 1 3
The revolutionary Twyford Moda Rimfree™WC has no rim. With no rim it means there’s quite simply nowhere for germs to hide. It’s ultra hygienic and easy to clean - and with no rim shadow, the bowl looks cleaner and shinier. The flushing system clears away residue effectively and regular cleaning is simpler than ever before a quick wipe over with a cloth will produce sparkling results every time. 1
Water cascades into the WC pan from a slot at the back of the bowl whilst holes at either end of the slot act as jets powering the water right around the bowl rinsing it clean quietly and effectively.
2
Smart design and engineering ensure that water enters the bowl at precisely the right angle to maintain its speed and force. The shape and size of the ‘sump’ at the bottom of the WC means that the pressure of the water coming in from above pushes the contents away quickly and smoothly.

Nowhere for germs to hide
A conventional WC, has a large number of holes under the rim, or a narrow slot running its length. It’s almost impossible to properly clean under the rim so millions of germs could be hiding there.
By cleverly redesigning the bowl and the flushing system, Twyford have done away completely with the need for a rim - and a home for all those germs.
IT’S BIG ON BENEFITS LIGHT ON CLEANING
Without a rim, regular cleaning is easier than ever before - a quick wipe over with a cloth produces sparkling results every time. You could even use less cleaning products as there is no need to squirt under a rim to get rid of the dirt and germs you can’t see.
Outside is easy to clean too. The fully back-to-wall design of the Moda Rimfree™means there are no awkward places for dust to gather.
LIGHT ON WATER USAGE
AND STYLISH TOO
The Moda Rimfree™ uses Twyford’s unique Flushwise® 4 and 2.6 litre dual flush technology. This delivers great results using up to 60% less water than a standard WC, flushing on 6 litres. As you will not need to squirt cleaning solution under the rim you can use less harmful products which will help the environment.
The revolutionary Rimfree™ WC is part of the Twyford Moda collection - featuring cool, contemporary design across a wide range of options including basins, bidets and furniture, all co-ordinating to create a complete look for the bathroom.
THE NEXT STEP FORWARD IN 160 TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPED FOR THE HEALTHCARE MARKET Twyford’s rimless technology was initially developed to meet the stringent demands of the Department of Health’s Health Technical Memorandum (HTM) 64. HTM64 provides guidance on the specification of sanitaryware for use in health buildings such as hospitals, with the key objective of minimising the risk of infection. Twyford’s experience and expertise ensured that we were fully compliant with these guidelines with our ground breaking family of Sola and Avalon rimless WCs.

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED If there is no rim, what stops the water coming out? The WC bowl is cleverly designed and engineered to ensure that the jets of water flow right around it and down in a cascade.
Why do we have rims on toilets in the first place? Typically the technology used in WCs has traditionally depended on there being a lot of outlets for the flush water, all hidden under a rim which guided the flow. The design of our Moda Rimfree™ WC is the result of years of development, designing both a bowl and a jet system which does away completely with the need for a rim.
How can the flush be effective using so much less water? The Flushwise® system is designed to deliver water more forcefully than in a standard WC, cleaning it efficiently and forcing the contents down into, and out of, the sump - producing outstanding flush results every time,
What cleaning will I have to do? Probably less than you are used to! Any soiling of the bowl remaining after the flush is easier to see and deal with. And of course, with no rim there’s nowhere for germs and dirt to accumulate, so you can say goodbye to hard and awkward WC cleaning chores.
