Quality Matters

Don't Be Fooled by Knockoffs

Cheap imitations may look similar, but they fail where it matters most: hygiene, safety, and sustainability. See the real difference.

Why We're Showing This

Several entities in Hyderabad have copied LooCafe's external design but completely ignored what makes our model work: professional maintenance, hygiene standards, and sustainable operations.

These knockoffs give public sanitation a bad name and put citizens at risk. We want you to see the difference and understand why genuine LooCafe units are trusted by GHMC, Gates Foundation, and millions of users.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY VIOLATION

Patent & Design Infringement

LooCafe's unique design, cafรฉ-toilet integration model, and technology are protected intellectual property. These knockoffs are unauthorized copies that violate our patents and design registrations.

Design Patent Protected

LooCafe's distinctive container design, color scheme, and modular layout are registered designs. Unauthorized reproduction is a violation of design patent laws.

Technology Patents

Our cafรฉ-toilet hybrid model, IoT integration, and B-CRT waste processing technology are patented innovations developed over years of R&D.

Trademark Violation

Using similar designs that confuse the public into thinking these are LooCafe units constitutes trademark dilution and unfair business practice.

Patented Sustainability Model

INDUSTRY FIRST

LooCafe pioneered and patented the cafรฉ-funded free public toilet model - a self-sustaining ecosystem where cafรฉ revenue funds toilet maintenance, ensuring free access for all citizens while maintaining the highest hygiene standards.

This revolutionary model has been recognized by the Gates Foundation, GHMC, and CII as the gold standard in public sanitation. No knockoff has ever replicated this - they just run shops.

The Undisputed Industry Leader

270+ operational units | Gates Foundation partner | CII Most Innovative Company | 10+ years of R&D | Millions of users served

When others copy the exterior, they miss the decade of innovation, partnerships, and proven results that make LooCafe the best.

What These Knockoffs Get Wrong

โœ— They Copy the Shell, Not the System

  • โ€ข Container shape copied, but no proper interior planning
  • โ€ข No plumbing standards or waste management
  • โ€ข No ventilation or electrical safety compliance
  • โ€ข No accessibility features for differently-abled

โœ— They Miss the Entire Business Model

  • โ€ข No sustainable revenue model (just shops)
  • โ€ข No free toilet access for public
  • โ€ข No maintenance staff or cleaning protocols
  • โ€ข No accountability or service standards
