Materials that manufacturers of shower cubicles use

The first feature of a sanitary cabin that you should pay attention to is the material from which it is made. There are several types of materials available on the market, which can be used to make solid and durable structures. One of the most popular, due to its many advantages, is HPL.

HPL stands for High Pressure Laminate which translates as high pressure laminate. This material is used by manufacturers not only of shower enclosures, but also of furniture or floors. This testifies to its high quality. HPL laminate is a thermosetting plastic, formed under conditions of high temperature and pressure. For its production, cellulose fibers are used, which are soaked in resin. It is the high pressure under which several layers of this material are pressed that is responsible for the properties of HPL, and consequently the sanitary cabins made from it.

A manufacturer of shower cubicles made of HPL panels can provide:

• Hard and solid walls – structures made of compressed cellulose layers are highly resistant to mechanical factors. In the case of cabins in public places, this asset should be prioritized due to the occurrence of vandalism or the possibility of accidental damage;
• Moisture resistance – this feature should be paid attention to primarily by investors ordering shower enclosures for such places as swimming pools or saunas, where moisture occurs practically constantly. Properly selected material can prevent the development of fungi;
• sterility – HPL boards can be protected with Sanitized technology, which prevents the formation of unwanted microorganisms.

Standards that shower cubicles must meet

Before using the manufacturer’s offer toilet cubicles and shower cubicles, it is necessary to make sure that they will be made in accordance with the construction law. The standards established by them ensure not only comfortable, but also safe use of sanitary facilities.

• CE certification – products that have it can be marketed in the European Union;
• Regulation of the Minister of Infrastructure of April 12, 2002 – products that comply with the requirements described in this document meet the relevant technical conditions and can be used inside buildings;
• Health and safety regulations – regulate the safe use of shower stalls in public places.

If a sanitary cubicle manufacturer does not provide information about meeting the standards derived from the above sources on its website, it is worth asking them about it when contacting them directly. After all, showers and toilets in public places must be constructed with the safety and comfort of future visitors in mind. As indicated by the aforementioned Ministerial Decree – toilet cubicles should have dimensions of at least 1.5 meters in length and 1 meter in width. However, it should be borne in mind that in any place put into public use, at least one of them should be adapted for the disabled. This topic must be addressed with the manufacturer.

Transport and installation of the sanitary cubicle

This is another important consideration when choosing a manufacturer of shower enclosures or toilet cabins. Many of them offer hassle-free door-to-door delivery of the entire wall system, securing the products for transport and avoiding handling. This way you can be sure that they will not be damaged in any way.

When it comes to assembly, shower cubicles can often be assembled by yourself. However, make sure that the company from which they were purchased provides the necessary instructions. Assembly work should not be done without a thorough understanding of the order of the various steps. However, you may need an assembly team. Then you should consult your location with the manufacturer of the toilet cubicles and make sure that it offers Installation of walls by professionals.

Measurement of space for sanitary cabin before production

The manufacturer of shower cabins should ensure that their dimensions are measured accurately and early enough. This will make it possible to locate the optimal number of cabins in the room, ensuring the comfort of each of them. Therefore, before placing an order, make sure that the company in question offers to come to the place of installation of the cabin system and take the necessary measurements.

Cubicle manufacturers also often allow you to measure the wall space yourself. However, if you are in doubt or do not have the appropriate instruments, you can put this task in the hands of professionals. It should also be noted that it is not possible to measure the space for the cabins before all finishing work is completed.

Experience of the manufacturer of shower cubicles

In most cases, the search for a company that manufactures and installs walls begins on the Internet. In addition to the offer and price list, it is then worthwhile to study in detail the manufacturer’s portfolio – to see in what types of public rooms he has installed his cabins, how they blend into the overall interior and how the various models of walls differ from each other. As for the projects carried out by Alsanit, shower cabins have been installed by us in schools, gyms, hotels, corporate buildings or swimming pools, among others.

Wide range of colors of sanitary cubicles

The aesthetic qualities of the cubicle systems are one of the most important factors (besides quality and compliance with legal standards) in choosing a manufacturer. The color scheme and the character of the interior should influence what colors will be on the walls. The minimalist design of toilet cubicles can be varied precisely by original hues, especially when they are installed in such places as kindergartens or changing rooms for the youngest, such as at a swimming pool.
