Build medical facilities anywhere: How macerators and greywater pumps enable flexible plumbing solutions for the healthcare sector

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to plumbing. Different industries have specific plumbing needs, and this is true for the medical sector. Due to their accessibility and proximity to growing populations, places like shopping malls, office buildings, and other commercial sites are increasingly being chosen as the best locations for new medical facilities. On such sites, if there is no access to sanitary plumbing or core drilling is not an option to accommodate new plumbing, an alternative solution is needed.

Build Medical Facilities Anywhere: How Macerators and Greywater Pumps Enable Flexible Plumbing Solutions for the Healthcare Sector explores the typical plumbing-related limitations that architects and builders run into when designing and building medical facilities. Macerators and greywater pumps empower architects to make the most of available space by allowing the installation of plumbing fixtures wherever they are required. This design flexibility ensures that essential facilities, such as hand basins and toilets, can be conveniently placed in every medical suite without being constrained by traditional plumbing limitations.
