SHANGHAI, Oct. 13 (Xinhua) -- An expo focusing on epidemic prevention in public toilets will be held in Shanghai.

The sixth China Toilet Revolution and Innovation Expo, scheduled from Nov. 19 to 21, is expected to attract more than 200 enterprises in the field of sanitation products from across the country.

The expo will cover an area of nearly 20,000 square meters, displaying products such as a foam-based toilet, which is water-efficient and provides better hygiene quality as it is flushed with foams, thereby reducing the survival time of viruses.

A forum on the importance of epidemic prevention and healthy sanitation habits will be also held during the expo.

An online exhibition running since July has attracted nearly 130,000 visits so far. Enditem
