Multipanel also offers versatile panel sizes – 598, 900 and 1,200mm – allowing flexibility for any bathroom layout. The MDF exterior core has Class 4 durability, ideal for areas exposed to prolonged water contact. With a 30-year warranty, care home managers can feel confident that bathrooms will remain hygienic, safe and low-maintenance for years to come. For Spring Grove, the refurbishment started as a Free Trial bathroom installation, which included free wall panel products, installation and hands-on training led by Will, Multipanel’s Business Development Manager and trained installer. This allowed the team to experience first-hand how the panels could streamline the refurbishment, saving both time and money.
Efficient, inclusive and stylish Using Multipanel, each wet room at Spring Grove was installed in just 1.5 days by a team of multi-skilled tradesmen. This speed minimised disruption to residents and staff. The smooth, gloss surfaces are easy to clean, and the modern tile-effect finishes bring contemporary style to bathrooms without compromising on hygiene or accessibility. Multipanel also aligns with inclusive design principles.
Combined with slip-resistant vinyl wet room floors, the bathrooms meet Lifetime Homes and accessibility standards, making them safer for residents who require extra support. By simplifying cleaning and maintenance, Multipanel panels allow staff to focus more on resident care rather than ongoing repairs or deep cleaning.
Results and impact To date, Spring Grove has successfully refurbished 12 bathrooms, with another 12 scheduled on a different floor. Plans are underway for the group’s other sites: Springview in Enfield (59 rooms) and Spring Lane in Haringey (63 rooms). The benefits have been immediate:
• Faster installation, reduced labour costs and shortened disruption • Durable, low-maintenance surfaces promise long-term savings compared to traditional tiling • Upskilled trades team increased project efficiency • On-site logistics were streamlined, even in challenging locations As Spring Grove staff noted: “The product has been great to install. Delivery was seamless, and the training allowed our tradesmen to upskill, speeding up the whole project. We’re confident these bathrooms will remain hygienic and low-maintenance for years to come.”
Why independent living providers choose Multipanel Multipanel’s panels help independent living providers combine practicality with modern design: • Five times quicker to install than traditional tiles • No grout, simple to clean, reducing long-term maintenance • Durable Class 4 core for wet areas • 30-year warranty for peace of mind • Reduced adaptation times and cost savings for projects • Inclusive and accessible, supporting safe and modern environments
Multipanel also supports sustainability. Its EPD-Certified panels can significantly reduce carbon impact compared to tiling. For a 75-bed care home, this equates to a CO2 saving similar to running ten day trips by coach over 50 miles – a measurable difference for environmentally conscious projects.
