"The whole experience was a bit like taking a whiz inside a Pottery Barn bathroom on Mars. But for once I felt cleaner leaving a public restroom than I did upon entering." -Voice of San Diego We'll take it! Read more about our demo at Balboa Park in San Diego: https://lnkd.in/e_-FHwUE

This season of gratitude reminds us of the power of connection and access. To our incredible partners: thank you for believing in the vision that public bathrooms can create stronger, more inclusive cities. Your support fuels our mission to prioritize comfort, equity, and accessibility for all. To everyone who uses Throne Bathrooms: we’re so grateful for your trust. Knowing our facilities make your days easier and your journeys more comfortable inspires us to keep pushing for a future where welcoming public spaces are the norm. Together, we’re shaping a world where everyone feels secure and valued in public spaces.

We founded Throne because we believe everyone deserves access to clean, safe bathrooms - but most American cities lack adequate facilities. The impact of this shortage goes far beyond mere inconvenience:  😰 44% of people feel anxious when using restrooms outside their homes.  🚫 ☕ Approximately 50% of parents with young children and people with walking aids avoid eating or drinking to avoid public restrooms.  🫥 26% of people have skipped social events due to restroom concerns.  💸 Shockingly, 1 in 6 people have left a job because of poor restroom conditions. We asked ourselves: What if it didn't have to be this way? What if we could reimagine public bathrooms from the ground up, leveraging modern technology to make them more accessible, hygienic, and cost-effective? That's exactly what we've done with Throne. We invite you to join us in reimagining bathroom infrastructure for the 21st century. Together, we can create more welcoming, accessible communities for all. Whether you are a city, a job seeker, an investor or an advocate, reach out! If you'd like to join us build this company and achieve our Mission of meaningfully expanding access to bathrooms, we'd love to hear from you.
