Selecting the right colours and finishes is about more than appearance. In schools and other demanding environments, a well-considered colour palette can help create washrooms that complement the building, support the needs of users and provide a welcoming environment, without compromising on durability or performance.
With more than 25 SGL colours and finishes available across Trovex's washroom and changing room ranges, specifiers have the flexibility to create washroom environments that suit both the project brief and the wider interior design scheme.
Durable performance, whatever the finish
Whether specifying bold colours, subtle neutral tones or woodgrain finishes, durability remains the priority. Solid Grade Laminate (SGL) is well suited to high-traffic washroom environments, offering a robust, moisture-resistant surface designed to withstand the demands of everyday use.
This allows designers and specifiers to focus on creating a washroom that reflects the character of the building, knowing performance remains consistent across the available colour and finish options.
Greater flexibility for every project
Every refurbishment presents different requirements. Some schools may choose vibrant colours to create an engaging environment for younger pupils, while others may prefer contemporary neutrals or natural woodgrain finishes to complement existing interiors.
A broad colour and finish range gives specifiers the freedom to create washrooms that feel considered and coordinated, rather than relying on a limited selection of standard finishes. Whether matching school branding, complementing surrounding materials or introducing greater visual contrast, colour choice becomes an important part of the overall design.
Colour in practice: Langford Primary
Langford Primary demonstrates how varied colour palettes can be used to create distinctive washroom environments within the same building.
The refurbishment features Trovex's Junior and Essential cubicle ranges, Diamond White PVC wall cladding and a Smarttrough vanity unit. Rather than repeating a single colour scheme throughout, different washrooms were specified using combinations of French Green, Apple Green, Marigold Orange and Woodland Walnut, giving each space its own identity while maintaining a consistent, durable specification across the project.
The result is a coordinated washroom refurbishment that combines robust materials, practical performance and thoughtful colour selection, creating environments designed for everyday use in a busy education setting.
