Washroom design goes back to school

Latest News Mon, Oct 24, 2016 4:25 PM

Specifying products for washrooms within the education sector may seem like a fairly straightforward task, but there are a number of considerations that need to be taken into account to ensure not only that regulations are met, but that the space is well designed, comfortable and practical.

Twyford offers a dedicated Education range that more than meets these requirements.

Lack of privacy, vandalism and inadequate cleaning and maintenance can make a visit to the toilet an unpleasant and unhealthy experience for students.

In fact, recent research undertaken by charity Education and Resources for Improving Childhood Continence (ERIC) highlighted that the quality of school toilets has a huge impact on pupils’ health, education and happiness.

Therefore the design of washrooms in education premises needs to be about a lot more than simply providing enough toilets and washbasins.

When designing spaces for growing children, the sizes and fixing heights of sanitaryware must be suitable for the relevant user age groups, which is why Twyford offers specific designs for each age group, from nurseries through to adult education and the less able, with products to answer every need and every educational location.

With hygiene and water-saving being two key considerations in school washrooms, Twyford offers a range of Rimfree pans specifically designed for use in education premises, all of which also feature Flushwise WC flushing options to help conserve water without compromising on performance.
