Material Options for Restroom Fixture & Accessories

Restloo supplies and constructs structures for public use applications. Many of our buildings, especially restrooms, showers, and changing rooms, require various accessories and fixtures. Stainless steel, Aluminium, and Nylon are frequently used in different applications, and each of these materials offers distinct advantages to restroom buildings.

 

Stainless steel

Steel is a durable material well suited for heavy wear-and-tear and vandalism that high-traffic public restrooms are subjected to. This material resists moisture, making it a hygienic and easy-to-sanitize surface option. Stainless steel typically will require specialized cleaners to avoid getting a “foggy” appearance. Different fixtures and restroom accessories, such as toilet hardware, are manufactured using stainless steel. Additionally, stainless steel has a unique appearance that can be used to create or enhance stylish modern restroom designs.

 

Aluminium

aluminum is a versatile and essential material in modern industry, with a wide range of applications across various sectors of the economy.

Aluminum is used in windows, doors, roofing, and curtain walls due to its strength, durability, and corrosion resistance. It is highly recyclable without losing its properties, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

 

Nylon

Nylon is a synthetic polymer, a type of plastic, that belongs to the family of polyamides. It was first developed in the 1930s by a team of researchers at DuPont led by Wallace Carothers. Nylon was the first commercially successful synthetic thermoplastic polymer. Nylon is known for its exceptional strength, toughness, abrasion resistance, and elasticity.

Various nylon hardware accessories, such as door knobs, coat hooks, adjustable legs, and hinges, are used in toilet partitions to enhance functionality and convenience for users.

Nylon hardware is easy to clean and maintain, requiring minimal effort to keep restroom partitions looking clean and functional. It is often more affordable than metal alternatives, offering comparable durability and performance.
