From LooCafe to ReFlow

15 years of sanitation expertise. 270+ toilets deployed. One mission: dignified sanitation for all.

The Evolution

ReFlow is not a startup β€” it's a strategic evolution. Built on LooCafe's proven operations, Ixora Group's 15-year facilities management experience, and cutting-edge sanitation R&D.

The LooCafe Foundation

In 2010, LooCafe launched in Hyderabad with a simple premise: public toilets can be clean, free, and sustainable through advertising revenue.

Today, 270+ LooCafe units serve millions across India's busiest transit hubs β€” bus stations, metro stops, and railway platforms.

This 15-year operational track record β€” 24/7 maintenance, real-time IoT monitoring, government partnerships β€” became the foundation for something bigger.

The Fork: Why ReFlow?

LooCafe works brilliantly for urban transit locations with sewage connections. But what about:

🏝️

Coastal Areas

CRZ regulations prohibit sewage discharge. No sewer connection possible.

🏜️

Water-Stressed Regions

Traditional flush toilets waste 6-15 liters per use. Unsustainable in drought-prone areas.

πŸ”Œ

Off-Grid Locations

Remote areas lack electricity and water supply infrastructure.

πŸ›οΈ

District Scale

Government buyers need standardized, deployable units β€” not custom construction.

ReFlow was created to solve these challenges. Same operational excellence as LooCafe. Completely different technology: zero discharge, solar powered, ISO 30500 certified.

What ReFlow Inherits from LooCafe

Ixora Group Operations

Both LooCafe and ReFlow are operated by Ixora Group β€” 15 years of facilities management across 5 service lines, serving airports, data centers, and government facilities.

24/7 Maintenance Network

Same maintenance teams, same rapid response protocols, same SLA-backed uptime guarantees. ReFlow units get LooCafe-level service.

IoT Monitoring Platform

Real-time dashboards built for LooCafe now power ReFlow monitoring. Track water quality, energy, usage β€” all from a central platform.

Government Relationships

Established partnerships with municipal corporations, transit authorities, and district administrations. ReFlow builds on this trust.
