Efficient wastewater solutions for a sustainable future
By using vacuum sanitary systems, greywater and blackwater can be treated separately, which makes smarter water-reuse and more efficient waste handling possible.
Vacuum sanitary systems is beneficial both for cabins and homes as well as large buildings.
- Less water use
- Less sewage produced
- Enables resource reuse


Why separate greywater and blackwater?
Separating blackwater (from toilets) and greywater (from sinks, showers, and appliances) allows each type to be managed in the most efficient and sustainable way.
For buildings aiming to cut water use or reuse water locally, source separation opens up clear opportunities. It supports lower overall water consumption, more effective treatment, and is simply a smarter approach to wastewater.
Jets® sanitary systems are modular, adaptable, and built around reliable core technology. They are suited for everything from small cabins to skyscrapers. The systems are designed for long service life and low maintenance, backed by decades of experience in both maritime and land-based projects.

Source separation for cabins and off-grid homes
For holiday homes, cabins, and remote properties without access to public sewage systems, vacuum-based source separation is a practical solution.
Blackwater is collected in a sealed tank and can be disposed of in a safe, smart mannner. Greywater is processed through the Ecomotive® A02 greywater treatment plant and safely dispersed through a filtering trench and back to the ground. The system handles wastewater on-site, with minimal excavation and energy use. Ideal for independent, off-grid living.

Enabling green buildings
In most buildings, wastewater from washbasins, showers, kitchen sinks and toilets has traditionally all been mixed in a single soil pipe. With the flexibility of Jets® systems, the wastewater in green buildings can be separated into one pipe for blackwater and another pipe for greywater.
Source separation is increasingly part of sustainable building strategies. For developers and architects aiming for environmental certifications like BREEAM, system that save water, reduces consumption and enables resource reuse are important. Jets® solutions support this through low water use, minimal energy requirements, and clear pathways for reuse or separate treatment.
This makes vacuum sanitary systems relevant for office buildings, hotels, and cultural or public spaces seeking long-term environmental performance.

Vacuum systems for any build – large or small
Vacuum sanitary systems use air pressure to move wastewater instead of relying on gravity.
A small amount of water is used to flush, sometimes just 0.5 to 0.6 litres, while a vacuum pump creates negative pressure to transport waste through sealed, narrow pipes. This makes installation flexible and efficient, even in buildings with limited space and without regard for gravity.
Because the system keeps blackwater (from toilets) separate from greywater (from sinks and showers), it becomes easier to treat each type of water differently. Greywater can be reclaimed and reused on-site, for example in irrigation or energy recovery, while the concentrated blackwater is well-suited for biogas production or simplified treatment.
With lower water use, reduced wastewater volume, and support for source separation, vacuum systems offer a practical and sustainable alternative for both small homes and large commercial buildings.

Low impact sanitary system
Vacuum systems offer a low-impact alternative for wastewater infrastructure, especially in off-grid and decentralised developments where preserving the environment matters.
Because they do not rely on gravity, installation avoids deep trenches and heavy excavation. Pipes can follow the land, not reshape it.
This reduces the disturbance to natural features like soil layers, roots, and vegetation. It also means fewer machines, shorter installation times, and a smaller construction footprint overall. For projects aiming to protect ecosystems and build with care, vacuum systems help make minimal-footprint solutions possible.
The system handles wastewater on-site, with minimal excavation and energy use. This makes it ideal for standalone wastewater management in remote areas, temporary installations, or sites without access to conventional infrastructure.
