can make a difference together
Innovative dementia friendly sanitaryware
with intelligent water management.
Wallgate prides itself on meeting market demands and driving forward innovative solutions. We have been working with care specialists to develop a new care and dementia-friendly product range that could transform washroom solutions and water management within dementia and aged care facilities.
This range, the e-Suite, comprises of taps, WC flushing and shower controls. It has been developed specifically to aid independence and maintain dignity for someone living with dementia and will not only create a safer environment for patients, but also create a managed care system for care providers.
The e-Suite is completely normal in operation, has recognisable traditional fittings and can be used in a familiar managed environment. The traditional cross head tapware and lever flush handles are a conventional design ensuring they are in line with the HBN08-02 standard.

Case Study
Lowther Building
WORKING WITH THE
DEMENTIA SECTOR
The new e-Suite range was selected by St Andrew's Healthcare for their Lowther Dementia Redevelopment project, designed by P+HS Architects as a new dementia unit, opening to patients Autumn 2020.
P+HS Architects’ director Cath Lake said: “Our client St Andrew’s Healthcare is keen to implement emerging and innovative technologies in order to improve the care it provides to people with challenging dementia. Specification of the e-Suite brings opportunities of a recognisable sanitaryware specification, with the added value of automated controls and potential understanding of a person’s declining cognitive capacity.”
The Lowther Dementia Redevelopment uses the full e-Suite product range across the project and has over 80 sets of e-Suite taps installed throughout the 40 bedrooms, bathrooms and communal areas. The e-Suite is designed to aid independence and dignity for patients and people living with dementia, allowing them to feel confident to use the sanitaryware unaided.
