Productivity, innovation, and environmental awareness define Torre Mayor.

Torre Mayor began the tradition of vertical developments that is now a trend across the country. The building is located at 505 Avenida Reforma, in what was once the Chapultepec Cinema. After assuming the leadership of the Reichman International company, owned by Paul Reichman, the architect who designed the building, construction was completed in 2002.

Torre Mayor has a height of 225 meters over 55 floors, in addition to 4 underground parking levels and 9 above street level, with more than 2,000 self-service spaces. The building is equipped with 29 elevators and 84,135 square meters of office spaces, pressurized emergency stairs, automatic units, air conditioning, mechanical, and electrical and telecommunications systems on each floor. Torre Mayor is included among the most resistant skyscrapers in the world and the one with the highest seismic tolerance on a world scale, with a maximum tolerance of 9.0 on the Richter scale.

Sloan's specification and sales department approached the site and worked with Gutierrez Tello's facilities team to select equipment that met the ICA-Reichman developer requirements. Sloan won the specification, and later, after 10 years of service, the owners sought LEED Gold Certification, and again the teams selected Sloan.

Sloan EBF-85 Faucets, the best choice for water efficiency

The restrooms on the 55 floors of Torre Mayor have the Optima® EBF-85 Sensor Faucets with battery power and an expenditure of 1.9 L per minute, resulting in significant savings in water consumption and increased hygiene for users.

Maximum water savings for a building with an ecological conscience

For Torre Mayor, one of the key points in the LEED Certification is water care, which is why Sloan equipment was changed from 3.5 L to 0.5 L per discharge, with the WEUS 6000.1401-0.125 urinal and flushometer combos.

Achieving efficiency and sustainability

Among other actions that Torre Mayor implemented to obtain the LEED Gold Certification was the change of the water closets from 6 to 4.5 L per flush with ceramic combos, WETS 5050.1401-1.28 flushometers.

The new generation of Sloan XLERATOR® EHD-501 Hand Dryers gives Torre Mayor restrooms greater drying power. The fast drying time, reduced noise levels, and greater energy efficiency provide an optimized experience.

“Sloan is a high quality firm, it is recognized worldwide, the products have very high standards and this is why installed in them in Torre Mayor. Something that was very important to us in our restrooms, is that the brand transcended the timeline. Today we are talking about more than 18 years and we still continue with Sloan. "
