OLYMPIA toilet seats: replacements for older ranges and designer WCs

Olympia Ceramica, founded in 1979 in Corchiano, in the Civita Castellana ceramics district, has produced WCs with very different shapes, from widely used 1990s ranges to designer collections. That variety carries through to replacement seats: flowing outlines, D shapes, rectangular forms and different versions within one family all call for the exact WC model to be identified.

Formosa and Crystal: two approaches to Olympia design

Formosa, designed by Marcello Ziliani, has soft curves and sides that narrow along the WC body. The seat must follow this distinctive outline. The selection includes original Duroplast replacements and an item specifically named Formosa 2.0 with Soft Close. Check the version before ordering.

Crystal, by Francesco Lucchese, takes a different approach, with angled surfaces and facets inspired by crystal. The catalogue lists original Duroplast seats with standard or soft-close hinges. This distinctive design makes it especially important to choose the seat specified for the collection.

Synthesis Eco and Tutto Evo: seats for rectangular WCs

Synthesis Eco has a rectangular upper surface and a body that narrows towards the base. Its original replacement seats have a wrap-over lid, with standard or soft-close options.

Tutto Evo is also rectangular, but its body follows a different profile. It was offered as a wall-hung WC and a back-to-wall floor-standing version. The selection includes an original replacement and a dedicated Duroplast alternative. Resemblance to another squared WC does not establish compatibility: check the outline and fixing system for the particular version.

Serie 92, Rubino, Vela and other ranges

Serie 92 is one of Olympia’s established 1990s ranges, with a D-shaped outline and generous proportions. Rubino has softer volumes and includes floor-standing, close-coupled and wall-hung WCs. Replacement names include Rubino 1, Rubino 2 and Rubino Sospeso Nuovo: they should not automatically be treated as equivalent.

Vela and Vela 2 also have separate sections. Other manufacturers have used the name Vela, so it must always be checked together with the Olympia brand. The range also covers Aurelia, Clear, Federica, Impero, Infanzia, Mercurio, Milady, Nicole, Top, Uni Ambra and Vogue, each with its own replacement selection.

Materials, colours and hinges

Depending on the range, original Olympia seats sit alongside dedicated, compatible or adaptable alternatives. Polyester-coated wood appears, for example, in replacements for Impero and Top; Duroplast is used in many original and dedicated seats. Some economical options use different materials or construction, such as lacquered MDF: these are not all the same product at different prices.

Check finishes by item. Rubino and Vela 2 include Champagne options; Clear and Federica also have dedicated matt white and matt black soft-close versions. Soft close is available for several models, but not every seat. Read the purchasing page for the actual colour, material and hinge type.

Finding the right Olympia seat

If you know the range with certainty, open its tile to compare the options and reach the Sintesibagno.shop purchasing page. If the brand or model is uncertain, use the Sintesibagno toilet-seat identification service. Specialist staff will help identify the WC before you choose a replacement. A similar photograph or a few matching measurements cannot guarantee compatibility.

Frequently asked questions

Does a Rubino seat fit every Rubino WC? Do not assume so. Check the WC version and the compatibility stated on the seat’s product page.

Are replacements available for older Olympia ranges? The catalogue still includes replacement options for several ranges. Availability, material and colour depend on the individual item.

Can I choose a colour from a photo of the WC? A photograph cannot confirm the shade. Ask for assistance before ordering if the colour is uncertain.
