Toto Ltd. (TOTO株式会社, Tōtō kabushiki gaisha), formerly known as Tōyō Tōki (東洋陶器株式会社, lit. 'Oriental Pottery Company'), and Tōtō Kiki (東陶機器株式会社, lit. 'Tōtō Equipment Company'), is a Japanese multinational toilet manufacturer which is known for manufacturing the Washlet (as well as the Warmlet and similar products).[1] TOTO was founded in 1917. The company is based in Kitakyushu, Japan, and owns production facilities in nine countries.[2][3]
Toto acquired the German toilet manufacturer Pagette in 2009 and has been supplying the European market through this company since it first appeared at the 2009 International Sanitary and Heating Fair. The company has had its European headquarters in Düsseldorf since 2012. The pre-wall specialist Tece from Emsdetten manufactures the modules for the toilets.
