Vortens offers 6 dual-flush toilets models in the lineup we track. This page is the Vortens-specific cut of the broader Dual-Flush Toilets toilets category — same product class, narrowed to the Vortens catalog only.
Vortens (Monterrey, Mexico, founded 1959) is one of the largest vitreous china manufacturers in Latin America and a significant exporter to the US plumbing-trade channel. Vortens toilets appear in commercial buildings (offices, hotels, hospitals) and residential new-construction across the US Southwest, Texas, and Florida. The brand competes on industrial-scale manufacturing efficiency — Vortens products are typically 20-30% less expensive than equivalent-spec Kohler or American Standard models, with comparable build quality at the entry and mid-tier price points.

If you're cross-shopping dual-flush toilets beyond Vortens, the following brands also ship in this category:
A dual-flush toilet has two buttons (or a split lever): a half-flush for liquid waste — typically 0.8 to 1.1 GPF — and a full flush for solids at 1.28 to 1.6 GPF. The water savings are real over a year. The maintenance reality is less talked about.
A standard 1.28 GPF toilet uses a single flush mechanism — flapper or piston — that releases a fixed volume of water with each flush. A dual-flush uses a cylinder-style flush valve with two trip points: pressing the smaller button (or pushing the lever down) opens the valve for a shorter duration; the larger button opens it longer. The 3-inch or 4-inch valve seat at the bottom of the tank is larger than a traditional flapper, allowing higher-velocity water release in less time.
