Choose MFC for dry washrooms, HPL-faced options for durable commercial finishes, and SGL for wet or humid environments.
Yes. Vanity units can be coordinated with toilet cubicles, IPS panels and lockers.
For wet, humid and high-traffic washrooms, SGL (Solid Grade Laminate) vanity units provide a robust, water-resistant solution. They are especially suitable for gyms, leisure centres, changing rooms, poolside washrooms and other areas where durability and easy cleaning are important.
For dry commercial washrooms, MFC and HPL vanity options can provide a practical and cost-effective finish while still coordinating with cubicles, IPS panels and other washroom furniture.
Our washroom vanity units are built for regular commercial use while helping create a clean, coordinated washroom finish. A wide choice of colours, finishes, basin arrangements and worktop options allows the vanity units to be matched with cubicles, IPS duct panels and lockers for a complete project specification.
We provide commercial washroom projects with product advice, quotation support and CAD layout assistance where required.
Our vanity units are designed for commercial washrooms where durability, cleanability and a coordinated finish are important. They can be specified alongside toilet cubicles, IPS duct panels and lockers.
Choose from Fast-Fit, Volante, Mirage and Rainbow vanity ranges depending on project budget, colour choice, age group, traffic level and wet-area requirements.

Use this checklist when specifying washroom vanity units for schools, offices, gyms, leisure centres and public washrooms. It separates material choice, environment, access and package coordination so buyers can compare options more easily.
| Planning point | What to confirm | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Washroom environment | Confirm whether the vanity is for a dry office/school washroom or a wet/high-traffic leisure setting. | The environment affects whether MFC, HPL or SGL/compact laminate is the better choice. |
| Basin arrangement | Confirm the number of basins, taps, waste positions and available wall length. | This helps avoid service clashes and makes the quotation/layout more accurate. |
| Access requirement | Confirm whether removable or lockable access panels are required. | Maintenance access is important for pipework, traps and future service work. |
| Top and fascia finish | Confirm colour, board material, top detail and edge/downstand requirements. | Coordinated finishes help the vanity match cubicles, IPS panels and lockers. |
| Package supply | Confirm whether matching toilet cubicles, IPS panels or lockers are needed. | One coordinated supply route can reduce mismatch between products and finishes. |
| Material option | Best suited to | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| MFC / MR MFC | Dry commercial washrooms | Office, school and staff toilet vanity units where the area is not exposed to regular wet use. |
| HPL-faced options | Higher-use commercial washrooms | Washrooms needing durable surface finishes and broad colour choice. |
| SGL / compact laminate | Wet, humid or high-traffic areas | Leisure centres, gyms, changing rooms and washrooms where water resistance is a priority. |

Commercial vanity units need to be specified around basin layout, moisture exposure, user volume and coordination with the wider washroom. A school, office, leisure centre and public toilet may each need a different material and worktop approach.
The vanity specification should consider basin numbers, splashback height, panel material, edge detail, access for plumbing and cleaning. Where the project includes cubicles and IPS panels, colours and finishes should be reviewed together rather than selected independently.
Total Cubicles supplies vanity units as part of commercial washroom projects and coordinated packages. Provide room dimensions, basin requirements and any matching cubicle or IPS finishes when requesting a quotation.
