The aim was to develop a lightweight, robust and user-friendly camping toilet. The changeover posed considerable technical challenges, including the reworking of the components to suit the material and production process as well as the design of a suitable injection mould. A particular challenge was to reconcile the individual design requirements of the start-up with the technical requirements of the injection moulding process.   <\/p>\n                <\/div>\n
