Clivus Multrum™ | CM8 Next-Gen Package
If you need a certified underfloor composting system for a smaller home or low-clearance build, the CM8 Next-Gen is the Clivus Multrum™ answer.
The CM8 Next-Gen is designed for up to 5 people full-time or 10 people part-time and is especially well suited to small homes, holiday houses, walking trails, remote workstations, and low-clearance installations.
THE NEXT-GENERATION OF CLIVUS MULTRUM™ TECHNOLOGY
"The newest and smartest evolution in the composting toilet market"
Next-Gen is the result of years of development, field experience, and historical performance data, brought together into a more advanced Clivus Multrum™ design. It represents a new generation of composting toilet technology with stronger design efficiency, improved installation capability, and better long-term performance than earlier models.
CAPACITY AND BEST FIT
The CM8 is most popular for use in small homes, holiday houses, walking trails, remote workstations, and similar sites where lower underfloor clearance is critical but a true certified underfloor composting chamber is still desired.
Residential / light-commercial positioning: The CM8 is the smallest of the Next-Gen continuous Clivus Multrum™ systems, but it still brings a certified underfloor composting chamber into projects where space is tighter and lower clearance is critical.
KEY ADVANTAGES
- Over 30% increase in composting volume while underfloor clearance was reduced to only 830mm required
- Set and forget – minimal maintenance
- The new design with leachate storage feature reduces the likelihood of blockage of the drainage system
- Perfect solution for container holiday homes
- More slopes in the design mean higher composting performance
- Passive ventilation to assist the fan, prevent back-drafts and provide redundancy
- Structural inground certified tank
- Low profile with only 830mm clearance under the floor required
With lower underfloor clearance, CM8 Next-Gen can be installed at sites like:
- Sustainable off-grid living residences
- Small homes
- Holiday houses
- Walking trails
- Tiny houses
- Remote work stations
