Specifying bathroom fixtures for public spaces: Durability, performance, and compliance

Public bathroom design has evolved far beyond its utilitarian roots, reflecting modern priorities like sustainability, inclusivity, and user satisfaction. Architects and specifiers face the challenge of selecting fixtures that balance durability, hygiene, and efficiency while meeting rigorous building standards.

Specifying bathroom fixtures for public spaces: Durability, performance, and compliance examines the key considerations for designing public bathrooms, offering practical insights to create functional, sustainable, and adaptable spaces. In high-traffic settings, fixtures must handle constant use, reduce water waste, and minimise maintenance demands. At the same time, aesthetics should not be overlooked, with many modern products providing visually appealing designs that do not compromise on performance.

With over 80 years of experience, Caroma believes public bathrooms should strike the perfect balance between durability, functionality, and aesthetics. The company designs fixtures that meet the diverse needs of Australians, from high-traffic public spaces to specialised facilities requiring enhanced accessibility and hygiene.
