THE CHANGING SHAPE OF URINAL


SCREENS P-Wave is delighted to launch its latest innovation in air freshening and deodorising technology. The Hex 3D is a 30 day urinal air freshener that, because of the new hexagon shape, has a better fit by folding into any size of urinal.


The Hex 3D features P-Wave’s pioneering protrusions to reduce splashback and catch debris, and they feature on both sides so it’s impossible to put the screen in the wrong way round; guaranteeing maximum effectiveness.


BUILDING CENTRE GETS SMART WITH


HAND DRYING Demonstrating best practise in construction and facilities management, London’s Building Centre is becoming ever more sustainable and energy efficient whilst also improving the experience of its users.


To this end the Centre has installed the new Jet Towel Smart hand dryers in several of its washrooms. Made by Mitsubishi Electric, they combine high-speed drying with low energy use and quiet operation.


John Bonning, Commercial Director of the Building Centre, said the decision to install the units was in part an initiative to improve the organisation’s environmental performance. He commented: “Previously we used paper towels. These are not very green and, in a busy working environment like ours, the costs associated with topping up the dispensers and disposing of the used towels is not insignificant.”


The new Smart Jet Towel is a very compact hands-under hand dryer and has the high performance, low noise and energy efficiency features associated with the original.

The new screens also contain P-Wave’s patented 30 day fragrance, which means the scent is up to five times stronger than any other screen. The screens contain odour-controlling


Using a modest 490W to 980W of power, drying times are from only nine seconds. This has been achieved partly by optimising the design of the airflow nozzle, making it wide and shaping it so that it generates a strong airflow across both hands at the same time. Significantly, the sensor that activates the dryer is very fast, switching on the airflow in 0.1 seconds so that users do not have that fleeting initial feeling that the unit is not working.


The Jet Towel Smart has been granted an NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) Award because the antibacterial resin incorporated into the build materials gives excellent hygienic properties. The intake grill is on the side of the hand dryer, which prevents used air from being sucked back into the dryer and recirculated. A filter is included to separate dust and particles from the incoming air so that only clean air is blown onto the hands.


Rated between 58 and 62dB, Jet Towel Smart is one of the quietest hand dryers on the market. It is also available in a number of colour and finish options; the Building Centre chose silver to match its décor and create a sleek modern feel.


Located in Central London, The Building Centre is open to all sectors of the building and construction industry and to the general public


enzymes and a clock system to remind you when they need changing to ensure a fresher washroom.


Dave Carson from P-Wave said: “These revolutionary new screens have been fully market tested in the USA and have proved very popular. We’re delighted to be introducing them to the UK and know they will go down well here too. This is our fourth urinal screen, because we are always looking for ways to improve our products to meet our customers’ needs.”


The new screens can be used in waterless urinals, are VOC compliant and come in several fragrances, including a new cucumber and melon option and citrus.
