Omigo is Now Brondell: Leading Manufacturer of Bidets in North America Consolidates DTC Start-Up, Strengthening Foothold in Bidet Marketplace and Expanding Customer Reach.

Brondell continues to prioritize healthier bathroom hygiene for all, with feature-rich bidets that help reduce the deforestation and resource waste associated with toilet paper manufacturing.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Brondell, a science-backed pioneer in innovative health and personal care technologies, is excited to announce the consolidation of Omigo, the father-and-son startup applauded for selling tens of thousands of direct-to-consumer bidets in US and Canadian markets. Brondell will leverage its retailer partnerships to launch Omigo into the mass market, offering Omigo products to a wider audience at a compelling price.

"We're excited to introduce Brondell customers to Omigo's fresh, playful outlook on personal hygiene while readying its products for retail," says Brondell President Steve Scheer. "For 20 years, Brondell has been laser focused on bringing healthy, planet-friendly solutions to every space: from homes and offices to commercial settings. With Omigo, we'll reach untapped demographics and spaces, further reducing the environmental impact of toilet paper while helping people live more comfortably and sustainably."

Brondell is the leading manufacturer of bidets in North America and is proud to be a 1% for the Planet product partner. Featured products in the Brondell + 1% for the Planet Collection include the company's SimpleSpa Eco Bidet Attachments, made from 65% recycled plastic. One percent of sales on partnership products are donated to fully-vetted environmental nonprofits. Brondell also works directly with select 1% for the Planet organizations, including Surfrider Foundation and World Toilet Organization. Through partnership campaigns, Brondell provides volunteer hours and mission amplification to nonprofits dedicated to protecting the environment.

Built upon a strong foundation of past innovation and a shared commitment to planet-friendly designs, this strategic maneuver supports the sustainability initiatives of both brands: reducing the deforestation and resource waste associated with toilet paper manufacturing while delivering cleaner, more luxurious personal hygiene for users. Brondell will continue to deliver industry-leading bathroom solutions that push consumer and commercial demand for high performance products coupled with a reduced ecological footprint. 

"Both Tom and I are thrilled to bring Omigo bidets to a larger audience," says founder Thomas Lotrecchiano. "We're ready to harness Brondell's customer base and retail partnerships—so that bidets can become the standard in all North American bathrooms, wiping out toilet paper waste."
