Mister Loo, which operates a chain of pay toilets in Thailand, saw sales grow during 2020 on the back of increased hygiene awareness due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Swiss start-up, which aims to become the “Starbucks of toilets”, charges THB10 ($0.33) for “premium” air-conditioned facilities and THB5 ($0.17) for regular ones. Other pay toilets cost around THB3 ($0.09). Attendants clean and disinfect the toilets after every use. Premium toilets also feature sensor-operated equipment, so users don't have to touch anything. Additionally, some facilities include relaxation areas where users can check health indicators, including blood pressure and body fat. (Nikkei Asia)
