Why SGL? – What are the benefits of using SGL:
- Let’s start with the basics. What is ‘Solid Grade Laminate’? SGL is a material made by compressing numerous layers of paper. These layers form the high-strength panels which we then use to manufacture long-lasting washroom solutions.
- It is renowned for its durable, water and liquid resistant nature. Which is why we always recommend it for use in school washrooms, or any other high traffic or wet area washrooms, and is a necessity for shower cubicles.
- Our SGL ranges come in a variety of colours and designs. They can be used in any washroom from nurseries to office buildings and complete your design perfectly.
- We also supply our SGL ranges with Sanitized® antibacterial treatment as standard. This eliminates 99.9% of the bacteria which significantly increases washroom hygiene at no additional cost.
- With its smooth antibacterial finish and impermeable nature, it also is one of the easiest washroom materials to clean and maintain.
