Pi-Pi vs Agande
Two European manufacturers of urinals for toilet cabins and garden sheds. Different materials, different durability, different working conditions. Below are just the facts.
Purchase Price is Only Part of the Equation
Pi-Pi costs more upfront. But unmodified PP becomes susceptible to impact cracking at temperatures around -10°C and below, and its typical service life under intensive use is 3–5 years. Pi-Pi LLDPE withstands -30°C and lasts 7–10 years. For a fleet of 100 units, the total cost of ownership over 10 years favours Pi-Pi. Order a sample and compare the materials in person before placing a large order.
Feature Comparison
![]() | Agande | |
|---|---|---|
Frost Resistance Winter storage and operation in cold climates | −30°C to +60°C | PP becomes brittle at −10°C and below |
Compatibility with Cabins Drain pipe diameter | 24 / 32 / 40 mm — any cabin without adapters | Only 40 mm |
Lifespan Under heavy use in rental and construction | 7–10 years | ~3–5 years |
Impact Resistance Drops during installation, transport, vandalism | LLDPE absorbs impact, does not crack | PP cracks upon impact |
Odor Management Ventilation in a closed cabin, summer heat | Vent port 70 mm (Standard Plus) | No ventilation connection |
Data on Agande verified as of May 1, 2026 from public sources (agande.eu, agande.de, Amazon.de). Frost resistance and lifespan characteristics of PP are based on published materials science data for unfilled polypropylene under impact conditions at low temperatures. Prices, specifications, and availability are subject to change — check the manufacturer's website for current information.
Why This Matters for Your Business
Cabins Winter Outdoors — PP Doesn't Hold Up
Unmodified polypropylene (PP) becomes susceptible to impact cracking at temperatures around -10°C and below — a documented material property, not an isolated defect. A rental company in Germany, Poland or Scandinavia opens the season in March and finds cracked urinals after winter. Each replacement is not just the cost of the product, but also a service call, transport, and downtime in peak season. Pi-Pi LLDPE stays flexible down to -30°C.
Cheaper at First Purchase ≠ Cheaper Over 10 Years
The price difference looks significant at first glance. But calculated honestly — over the full lifecycle — the picture changes. A PP product will need replacing twice in the time LLDPE runs without replacement. Add the cost of each service call and cabin downtime in peak season. Add the volume discount Pi-Pi offers on larger orders — and the real saving from choosing Pi-Pi turns out to be almost three times greater than a simple price comparison suggests. The larger the fleet and the harsher the climate, the wider the gap.
A full set of B2B tools
Pi-Pi is a manufacturer with a complete set of business terms: project pricing from 10 units, flexible payment terms by agreement, OEM production and manufacturing under your brand. For regular customers — framework agreements with priority lead times and dedicated supply planning. Small trial order or large volume — the format of cooperation is tailored to your needs.
Urinals and sinks — from one supplier
A sanitary block in a toilet cabin is not just a urinal. Pi-Pi produces both urinals and sinks from the same material, with the same tolerances and in one color scheme. One supplier, one contract, one contact — this is logistically simpler and more convenient for any questions. For companies that equip cabins turnkey or produce welfare units, this means fewer negotiations, more predictable timelines, and consistent quality across the range.
