Retrofit 2025 at the Building Centre
Saniflo is delighted to announce a six- month collaboration with the Building Centre as a Principal Partner for ‘Retrofit 2025 – What’s Stopping Us’.
As well as a static exhibition in the organisation’s central London location, there is a full programme of in-person and online events for the duration of the campaign, which is designed to help navigate the barriers and opportunities in the retrofit sector of the built environment.
Retrofit 2025 aims to show that tools and solutions to transform existing buildings already exist and to encourage architects, construction professionals, the housing sector, Government and local authorities to take the next steps.
With plenty of experience in supporting change of use projects over many decades, Saniflo and sister brand, Kinedo, have not only placed products in the static display ‘house without walls’, but contributed case studies detailing how their products have enabled change of use conversions in the housing and educational sector. Pods
adjacent to the static display highlight how a former office building was transformed into apartments in Peterborough, using Kinedo shower cubicles in the bathrooms, whilst a former bank was converted into a world- class dental training school with the help of a number of Saniflo pumps and macerators.
A Kinedo Kinemagic Design all-in-one shower cubicle is featured in the ‘house without walls’ along with a Sanicompact wc, which is a space saving, cisternless wc with integrated macerator. The shower cubicle is swift to install and - thanks to its unique design and assembly – requires no tile or grout to create a watertight environment. Consisting of internal glass panels, which sit over the upstands of the shower tray, glass external panels and door, the shower is supplied as a single package complete with shower, valve and handheld shower. Ready to use from the moment it’s installed because no follow- on trades are required, it saves on both specification and installation time. The Sanicompact is ideal for small bathrooms
that cannot discharge waste via gravity. The integrated macerator means that no cistern is required and it can also discharge waste from a basin.
Amanda Mills, Marketing Manager at Saniflo, has overseen the collaboration and is pleased to partner with Retrofit 2025.
“This is a sector that lends itself very well to our products and one we have worked in for a long time. There is definitely more emphasis today on retaining and converting buildings for new uses. Our pump range, in particular, enables developers to discharge waste when traditional gravity drainage infrastructure can’t or is too expensive. Saniflo’s range extends from pumps for single bathrooms or kitchens, through to pumps for whole buildings, or multiple small buildings. Retrofit 2025 offers us a great opportunity to reach a bigger audience to share our products and knowledge. We’re looking forward to attending as many in-person events as possible and to using the facilities at the Building Centre for our own customers.”
