Given Level Access Showering
Thanks To Marmox
As a manufacturer whose
product range is synonymous
with wet rooms and high
specification bathrooms,
Marmox has supplied ten of
its specialist Showerstone
level access trays for an
apartment development in
Newark. Consisting of 22
high specification dwellings
for retirees on two floors
where, on the ground floor the
Marmox Showerstone trays
were set within a screeded
floor, while those upstairs
have been installed into the
timber joists to maintain level
access. A spokesperson at
Guy Taylor Associates added:
“Sustainability was a major
criterion from the start and
the properties were designed
with this in mind and have
achieved high scores in rating
systems such as the Code for
Sustainable Homes, Housing
Quality Indicators and Life-
time Homes. All units feature
full disabled access as well
as flexible living spaces which
can be customised to suit the
needs of individual occupants
and specifying the Marmox
level access shower trays
matched in perfectly with the
accessibility requirements.”

New Guidance On
Washroom Legalities
And Good Practice
By law (Equality Act 2010),
venues need to make
anticipatory ‘reasonable
adjustments’ to the built
environment to prevent
disabled people being put at
a ‘substantial’ disadvantage-
that includes suitable
toilets!
To help all involved in the
decision-making process
get it right, Closomat
Britain’s leading provider of
toilet solutions to restore
dignity to people who need
help to ‘go to the loo’- has
produced a new white
paper. ‘Accessible Toilets,
Washrooms & Bathrooms-
The Provisions Beyond
Building Regulations
Approved Document M’
explains why Approved
Document M type toilets do
NOT meet the needs of up
to 14million people*, and
outlines the relevant British
Standards and guidelines
for compliance.
