Sun-Mar is the trade name of Sun-Mar Corp., a Canadian manufacturer and distributor for composting toilets, garden composters and other home composting products. The Company was founded in Sweden and moved to Canada in the early 1970s, and has been developing toilet technology ever since. The company currently operates its head office out of Burlington, Ontario, Canada, and has many independant dealers across North America.[1]
History
[edit]Sun-Mar Corp. was founded 30 years ago by Hardy Sundberg, who had developed the world’s first self contained composting toilet in 1971.[2] Sun-Mar has been marketing some 22 different models of composting toilets for more than three decades.[3] As Sun-Mar continued to grow they became the first composting toilet to be certified by the National Sanitation Foundation[4], an organization that tests and certifies that products meet the requirements of strict public health standards.[5]
