The future of commercial washrooms depends on tackling critical sustainability challenges while improving user experience and functionality. The methods and approaches currently used for new projects or refurbishing washrooms do not efficiently use resources and often result in unnecessary waste. Additionally, the upkeep requirements of commercial washrooms pose real challenges, such as being too costly and difficult to maintain over a long period.

The Dolphin FDC24 White Paper serves as a comprehensive guide for industry stakeholders and is available as a free instant download PDF that addresses these concerns, emphasising the importance of adopting sustainable practices that minimise waste and promote reuse.
