The 2009 ICC/ANSI Standards require that soap dispenser controls and faucets that serve certain accessible lavatories - larger restrooms determined by scoping such as IBC as to require an enhanced reach range - need to be installed with a reach depth of 11 inches (280mm) maximum.
All 4 Verge Product Line Series (LVL, LVG, LVS and LVR) are designed using Bradley's patented molding process for the solid surface material; Evero Natural Quartz.
Bradley features their exclusive process for creating elliptical, parabolic and curved surfaces using solid surface materials.
How many times have you walked into a toilet room; where the hand-washing area (sink) is on one side of the entrance door and the hand-drying area (paper towels\hand dryer) is on the other side of the door?
Or, while standing at the hand-washing area (sink) you find the hand-drying area (paper towels\hand dryer) is located behind you mounted on the wall?
The distance that separates the hand-washing area from the hand-drying area; is the space for potential risk of a slippery floor for users of this toilet room design.
The water dripping off of visitors' hands; creates a slippery floor in the walking and exit paths of the toilet room.
A wet floor, more easily collects dirt from visitors shoes and potentially becomes a breeding ground for bacteria and mold.
Advocate Serves as Key Component to Safer-Cleaner Toilet Room Design
The Advocate AV-Series hand-washing system provides each user their personal, hand-washing space; complete with soap, water and integrated hand-drying.
The Advocate's hand-drying system is fully integrated with the hand-washing basin to minimize or eliminate water dripping onto the floor. This provides both a safer and cleaner toilet room design.
The seamless, shallow, -nearly flat bottom basins (sink bowls) were designed to meet ADA accessibility for healthcare, school, laboratory and other design markets.
The HS basins are also bowl options in Bradley's prefabricated, solid surface Omnideck Lavatory Product Line. The Omnideck Revit Family Library can be downloaded from the same page as the HS Undermount Basins. Custom Omnideck Revit families with the HS basin bowl options available upon request.
Today's innovative buildings' exteriors and interiors are not always designed as orthogonal or linear --which prompted the design options of the Bradley's lavatory deck systems.
Bradley Corporation developed an innovative manufacturing processes to create "molded shapes" from engineered stone (natural quartz and granite) to accent linear design or complement the parabolic curves, arcs and elliptical features within the design interiors.
