Hygiene Rooms In Schools
Changing Tables, Hoists & Height Adjustable Basins
The Details
As the world becomes more aware of the need for inclusivity and accessibility, the importance of ensuring that our pillars of education offer compliant facilities increases.
Disabled people have the right to an education, and there are now standards in place to ensure that buildings include essential facilities that disabled people require to cater to toileting, showering and changing needs.
We are one of the country’s leading experts in transfer and hygiene in educational environments and have in depth knowledge and experience in the Department for Education’s regulations in place through BB103 and BB104 which cover design, layout, installation and maintenance of transfer equipment (including ceiling hoists), showering, changing tables, height adjustable washbasins.
