P-Wave places over one million life-
saving urinal mats With the help of their distributor network, Robert Scott’s P-Wave brand has now placed over one million of its NHS England-branded urinal mats in men’s washrooms across the country, from pubs, offices and restaurants to shopping malls and stadiums.
Mark Wintle, P-Wave Brand Manager at Robert Scott, said: “According to the Office for National Statistics there are over 25 million men in England and we estimate that at least a quarter use a urinal once a day, so our 30-day urinal screens are taking this essential health message – ‘Blood in your pee? Contact your GP practice’ – to many millions of men every day.
“Our unique partnership with NHS England began 18 months ago – as part of a major earlier cancer diagnosis drive. Diagnosing cancer early means it’s easier to treat and can save lives, which is why NHS England chose to collaborate with P-Wave, urging men to be aware of changes in their bodies and to contact their GP practice if they notice symptoms that could be a sign of cancer. We’re proud to have played such an important role in encouraging men to consult their GPs if they see blood in their urine, with our specially branded Slant6 urinal and trough screens.
“The campaign has gained huge momentum as many large businesses have come on board to support this important and potentially life-saving initiative. We are thrilled that this ever-growing group of partners includes Sodexo, phs Group, Balfour Beatty, Mitchells & Butlers and even Manchester United Football Club. The more men see the message, the more effective the campaign becomes.
“It’s time to put an increasing focus on the washroom as a centre for wellbeing and men’s health, and there have already been many success stories as a result of this unique NHS partnership initiative.”
Cancer survivor Berry Mulder credits the NHS England message seen on a P-Wave urinal mat in a Marks and Spencer store in Bristol with helping to save his life. After reading the prompt, he sought medical advice and was later diagnosed and successfully treated for testicular cancer.
Now more than six months cancer-free, Berry reached out to the P-Wave team to express his gratitude. He wrote: “Dear P-Wave, I’d like to thank you and the NHS from the bottom of my heart – because you probably saved my life.”
While the health and wellbeing benefits of P-Wave’s NHS partnership are obvious, there is another positive aspect to the company’s biodegradable urinal screens – making them a must for facilities managers who need to tick as many ESG boxes as possible.
