Washrooms for Education
A
mwell Systems has washrooms to suit the entire education sector, from
pre-school right through to University. Amwell’s products for pre-
school and primary are fun and vibrant creating washrooms that kids will
be more inclined to look after, while for secondary and higher education
the washrooms are stylish but tough enough to look after themselves!
Amwell has been supplying the education sector with washrooms for 30
years with a range of bright, fun, tough and durable washroom products to
meet the specific needs of all educational premises. They can also see
projects through from concept to completion with their professional
installation service. Valley Primary School in Cumbria recently had their
washrooms refurbished with Amwell’s Playtime range with dinosaur digital
print, Elaine Jackson commented; “The children love their new washrooms
and are now very protective over them, taking it upon themselves to report
anybody who dares to misuse them!
