What Bushboard Washroom does

Bushboard Washroom Systems Ltd is a UK-based manufacturer and supplier of commercial washroom systems, founded in 1940 and headquartered in Corby. The company designs and supplies bespoke made-to-measure toilet cubicles, vanity units, IPS duct panels, lockers, benching, sanitaryware, and brassware across multiple material technologies including Solid Grade Laminate (SGL), High Pressure Laminate (HPL), Melamine Faced Chipboard (MFC), ColourCoat pigmented lacquer, Real Wood Veneer, and Solid Surface. Proprietary product systems include Ready Plumbed Modules (RPM), a pre-assembled washroom module with sanitaryware and brassware pre-fitted to steel-framed panels that the company claims reduces installation time by 75%, alongside branded ranges such as Fast Track (48-hour delivery flat-pack system), Manhattan (luxury flush-fronted cubicles), Tiny Stuff (anti-finger trap nursery cubicles), and the exclusive SanCeram sanitaryware line.

The company operates a predominantly sales-led go-to-market model targeting architects, contractors, and end users via direct quotation, supported by RIBA-approved CPD presentations, NBS specification tools, BIM/CAD downloads, and an online design tool. Distribution combines direct sales (UK and a dedicated international export division), a Fast Track e-commerce shop for standard products, a Preferred Installer Programme of trained contractors, and NBS Source listing for specifier access. Pricing is quote-based on bespoke specifications with a 5-year warranty and compliance credentials spanning HBN-0010 (healthcare), Department for Education Regulations, Approved Document M and T, and DDA. Customers are concentrated in the UK education sector (schools, nurseries, universities, colleges) with additional presence in healthcare, commercial office, leisure, and hotel/luxury segments, supported by a claimed 'hundreds of schools' customer base and a network of named case-study projects.
