A new school of thought behind cubicle systems
Published: 10 December, 2009
IGLOOS Washrooms has redeveloped their existing cubicle systems following recent research into common issues associated with school toilets. This research has resulted in designing a new range purely for the education sector, split into pre-school, primary and secondary school ages.
Problems identified by IGLOOS varied according to the age ranges. For example privacy is an issue in primary schools as the pupils are quite self conscious of using urinals, therefore there was a need for urinal partitions and higher cubicles. Poor hygiene and ventilation was found to be a general problem across the board.
IGLOOS has recently completed an installation of the Education range into an under 5’s establishment near Hertford. The toilets consisted of 3 cubicles, a 3 bay hand basin unit and one full height cubicle for staff. The school chose to have a simple washroom with 3 plain painted walls with just a colourful rainbow over the hand basin unit to enhance the cubicles as it is already a very colourful range.
