Notjusttaps has added to its portfolio of specialised products for the education markets with the introduction of ‘Junior’ toilets and urinals; these are smaller than adult sized WCs and are lower in height to suit nursery or junior school pupils.
These are part of a specialised School & Education range which offers fittings for safe water delivery, timer taps for controlled water use (and prevention of flooding) and specialised taps for school laboratories.
No one likes to admit it but as we get older, we get a bit less stable and can do with a bit of help getting out the bath. The trouble is that most grab rails have an institutional look and feel – they might serve the correct purpose but they don’t make you feel young!
Sometimes budget dictates that a low cost grab rail should be fitted as an economical safety aid but to meet the demands from architects and specifiers working on luxury bathroom projects we offer a range of designer grab bars and rails including the Luxe Grab Bars collection – products that provide the necessary safety without compromising the aesthetics of the bathroom.
A recent phone call from an acupuncturist highlighted the lack of straightforward guidance available for practitioners looking to fit the correct handwashing facilities in their premises to the appropriate standard.
Whilst there is excellent advice from a variety of bodies including the Health Protection Agency & The British Acupuncture Council, we have produced an article with both general advice and invaluable links to articles from the above bodies.
As the choice of the most suitable taps and sinks can be a minefield – this is an area of expertise where we can guide customers so that they end up with correct, approved and fully compatible fittings – something that saves an awful lot of time, aggravation and money.

The requirements for handwashing equipment as laid down by HTM64 and the latest NHS standards require not just correct taps and sinks but also wall fitted soap dispensers and paper towel dispensers (never reusable cloth towels) situated in close proximity to the washing stations.
To this end we are delighted to introduce Ophardt Hygiene of Germany. Whilst not the cheapest, their products are produced to exacting standards that last far longer than cheaper alternatives, incorporating special touches such as Anti-Fingerprint coatings to enhance appearance and reduce maintenenance costs, precision handwash pump systems for liquid and foam disinfectants that allow adjustment of the dosage to reduce long term consumable costs, and fully autoclaveable components to ensure totally safe hygiene levels.
These products are complimented by hospital standard bins and hygienic glove dispensing stations designed for both hospital and care home environments.
Notjusttaps are delighted to welcome Reginox as a new partner.

The risks of non thermostatically controlled bathing in care and residential homes are all too apparent – Those who are elderly or infirm are most at risk of accidental burns and scalds. This is why it is so important that temperature safe washing and bathing taps are always fitted.
The Notjusttaps’ Special Needs division provides a full range of equipment that allows residential and care homes to conform to these requirements, ranging from TMV approved thermostatic blending valves that can be used in conjunction with pre-installed taps to Safetouch Thermostatic taps for new build and refits which have full TMV anti scald controls combined with technology that keeps the tap bodies cooler.
Many taps are available with the option of wall or deck mounting to provide the most cost effective, flexible installation option
What do the elderly & schoolkids have In common?
They both leave taps running – the elderly because they forget, school kids because they like to leave taps running to see if they can cause a flood (we were all kids once so we know what trouble kids get up to)
This was a problem that we had to address recently where a school needed taps that were efficient in water use but very importantly only ran for a limited time as the pupils liked to leave taps running, blocked the basins and cause a flood
We recommended our professional temperature adjustable timer taps (non-concussive taps) that can be set to a desired temperature whilst they will run for approx 15 secs – enough to wash with but not enough time to cause trouble.
The timer taps are part of a comprehensive range of commercial taps and plumbing solutions which includes safety TMV temperature control valves, water saving fittings, special sensor taps & school laboratory supplies.
