Dolphin Solutions Ltd. provided their ALAVO wash stations with pink and blue halo lighting for washrooms at Brent Cross Shopping Centre.

Brent Cross is a major retail facility at Brent Cross in North London that opened in 1976, owned by Hammerson and Standard Life. It is the flagship attraction of Brent Cross that revolutionised retail when it opened 40 years ago, with major development works in the pipeline.

As part of renovation works Dolphin were approached to transform the washrooms in the facilities already being used for customers. The vision was to achieve inspiring spaces and a Hollywood wow factor, to tie in with the look of the new developments due to begin.

The client opted for Dolphin’s ALAVO wash stations, opting for blue halo lighting in the Men’s washrooms and pink in the ladies.

The pale yet stylish colours of the lighting reflect beautifully off of the white marble finish of the walls of the washroom. The trough basins ensured for clean and hygienic use as customers do not need to touch any of the washroom products in order to use them, therefore minimising risk of spreading disease and germs.

By also installing rows of wash stations rather than one wash wall, it helps minimise queue times so that customers who wish to spend the whole day at the retail centre do not waste valuable time queuing to use washroom facilities.

Separate mirrors with white halo lighting were installed separately to the ALAVO systems so that those only wishing to use a mirror can do so without causing a hold up at the hand washing facilities. Shelving was also put under the mirrors for customer belongings.

In the parent and child facilities they opted for a mixture of products across our various ranges. This included Dolphin’s BC100bm-2 counter top nappy changing unit was installed, a one piece construction that ensures a very hygienic surface, and their BC100bm-2 counter top nappy changing unit was also installed, a one piece construction that ensures a very hygienic surface.

The BC928 stainless steel maxi paper towel dispenser, BC950 infrared automatic hands free soap dispenser and BC900 stainless steel toilet seat sanitiser dispenser were also specified.

From Dolphin’s Velocity range the client went for the BC2002 Stainless steel Dolphin high-speed economy hand dryer. For the bins within the washrooms they used the Prestige DP5110 Recessed Waste Bin.
