The power of hygienic wall cladding and boxing in

Goss Environmental Coatings, a Trovex Select Installer, recently published an insightful article on the importance of hygienic wall cladding and boxing in utilities. With over 30 years of expertise installing hygienic wall cladding, Goss has delivered solutions for the NHS, Boots, The British Army, and many others, ensuring safe, functional, and hygienic spaces. 

The importance of hygienic boxing in   

One of the key takeaways from Goss' article is how boxing in utilities enhances hygiene by enclosing pipes, cables, and other exposed services behind seamless, easy-to-clean surfaces. In environments like schools, commercial spaces, and general washroom areas, this approach helps improve cleanliness and aesthetics while reducing maintenance challenges.

In healthcare environments where stringent infection control, maintenance access, and speed of installation are critical, Hygipod IPS is the preferred solution. Hygipod IPS provides a sealed, purpose-built unit for use as wash hand basins, Doc M packages and more. Hygipod IPS is designed to meet NHS standards, allowing for quick installation, easy servicing, and superior infection control. Where ceiling mounted long horizontal boxing is required, the HWC approach is effective in healthcare environments when combined with broader wall cladding and Hygipod IPS.

Case study: hygienic cladding for a school in Enfield

In their article, Goss Environmental Coatings highlighted a recent project in a school in Enfield where Trovex Diamond White hygienic wall cladding was installed across toilet and shower facilities. This included boxing in services to create a smooth, low-maintenance, and hygienic surface, ensuring long-term ease of cleaning.
