Hi Tore,
Don't hesitate to build UDDTs yourself, without anything from specialized factories, as you can see on my blog, inodoroseco.blogspot.com . Another option is to build benches and place this sort of insert into them: arrebolperu.com/detalleprod2.php . This greatly reduces the cost of manufacture and shipping. Benches also allow for better ventilation and eliminates almost entirely the problem of internal soiling. Ferrocement is a good material for the bench and I can coach you on that.
Also, on your webpage, I recommend you cite Feachem on that graph and maybe try to find newer sources.
Best wishes,
Chris Canaday

I assume you mean a urine-diverting toilet stool to use with a composting system or drying system. (Remember that dried contents, even with lime, can rehydrate with pathogens intact. Shown in a CSIRO study.)
Sarar-T and another Mexican program are not focused much on commercial production so they often balk at making and shipping toilets when you want them.
Sun-Mar makes waterless toilet stools but not urine diverting. However, we sold some to a customer who then wanted urine diversion, so we sold him some urine diverters to pop in at his risk. With trimming, he was able to do that.
The best is the EcoDry, made of porcelain. However, the ceramic and the shipping mean it is not cheap.
There are products out there that can be adapted.

I would suggest that you contact
Sarar-T
. They are located just outside Cuernavaca and are one of the best resources that you'll find in the entire country of Mexico.
Buena Suerte!

Thank you Dorothee. The catalogues showing where to buy that von Muench had compiled were great. Hopefully the Mexican manufacturers are still in business. Hopefully someone can updated it since it was published in 2011.

Hi Tore
You could to contact the people behind these projects (as they work with UDDTs in you hemisphere);
forum.susana.org/uddts-for-particular-si...ther-countries#18162
forum.susana.org/253-mobile-toilets-cont...g-in-lima-peru#13588
There was once a supplier list and part of it can be found at the end of this document :
www.susana.org/en/knowledge-hub/resource.../library/details/874
The supplier lists are in the appendix which all three can be found here:
www.susana.org/en/knowledge-hub/resource...earch=urine+appendix
It is a bit outdated but the best that I have at hand right now...
Cheers, Dorothee

My manufacturing factory is in Vietnam. The cost of transport within that hemisphere as well as the southern, is the killer. Because the demand for Composting Pedestals is small the manufacturing is by hand, and to avoid high tooling costs Fibreglass is the most cost effective method to obtain the sanitary finish that is demanded. There are well documented methods to make pedestals in concrete and clay which is OK for individuals but when there is a need for constant supply a better finish is required.

Thanks for the response. It hurts when you think the toilet will cost more than the entire UDDT. How many units does it take to make it worthwhile to open a sub plant in this hemisphere?

Hi Tore.
I manufacture UDDT (sitting) in Vietnam and could send direct from the Factory probably cost in the region of $350-400 USD including Post. Mostly mine are imported back to Australia but I have sent individual items direct to Ireland , Canada , France and Germany in the past. They are Glassfibre not Plastic and are therefore a little more expensive. You could have a look on my website bowenarrow.co to see what is available.
Cheers Ross

Where can I buy a sitting UDDT toilet in either the US or Mexico?
Is there a list of manufacturers worldwide for both sitting and squatting UDDT's.
