Benefits of technology

Facilitates effective cleaning with controlled agent usage, reduces waste, and enhances user safety and hygiene by allowing only the desired amount of cleaning agent to be used and enabling easy replacement of worn-out brush tips.

Problems solved by technology

Cleaning chemicals, which are often used when cleaning such bowls, tend to stain the bowls and hard water retained in the bowel usually leaves an undesirable residue in the bowl.
The handles of the existing toilet brushes are long which makes the cleaning of the inner bowl area difficult.
Also, once the bristles of the brush tip are worn or broken, the entire brush has to be disposed off.
The problems of hygiene and self-protection under contamination are not tackled in prior art.
