All exposed panels are manufactured in Grade 304 stainless steel.
All our cast solid surface sanitary-ware is manufactured from a composite
of fine-grade aluminium tri-hydrate filler (ATH) and the highest quality Polyester resins.
This provides a close knit molecular structure which is very tough and highly resistant to
chemical attack. Coloured polyester chips can be blended with the mix to give a whole range
of granite effect solid surface colours.
We offer a range of standard colours to suit most applications,
including white and our granite effect solid surface colours – please see our Colour Range
for details.
Sadly, nothing is completely vandal-proof! But our solid surface material
is a very durable, non-flammable, fade and stain resistant composite. The finished products have
inherent cut and scratch resistance and can easily be repaired or refinished if necessary. So our
MGE and CME models are vandal-resistant and attractive and easy to use. They look smart and modern,
and have been very well accepted by students in schools across the UK.
For maximum vandal resistance, we would recommend using a Stainless Steel
model. If you have access to the rear of your Handwash units, we would recommend our Model RSA2,
which has a fixed front fascia panel and is refilled with soap from behind. Alternatively, our
front-opening Model FMX2 is designed with secure locks and concealed hinges on the door panel.
However, our solid surface material is also vandal-resistant.
