Tanning Salon Cubicles the Smarter Choice

Posted on by epcotcubicles

Tanning Salon Cubicles are the Smarter Choice Over Stud Walls for Tanning Salons

When it comes to fitting out a tanning salon, first impressions and practicality matter. Many salon owners default to traditional stud walls when dividing up rooms, but there’s a smarter, more efficient alternative: Sunbed cubicles.

At Epcot Cubicles, we specialise in custom-built solutions for tanning beds and changing environments, and here’s why more tanning shops across the UK are choosing sunbed cubicles over stud walls:

1. Faster Cubicle Installation

Sunbed Cubicles are pre-manufactured and modular, which means they’re significantly quicker to install than stud walls. This speeds up your fit-out and helps you open your doors sooner.

2. Cost-Effective

Reduce the need for multiple trades, labour-intensive work, and messy finishes. Sunbed Cubicles save time and money, both during installation and in the long run.

3. Reconfigurable

Tanning salons evolve with trends, equipment upgrades, or expansion. Sunbed Cubicles can be easily relocated, resized, or reconfigured without starting from scratch.

4. Improved Airflow

Sunbed Cubicles can be designed to allow better air circulation than enclosed stud wall rooms, helping reduce heat build-up and keeping customers comfortable, especially important in tanning environments.

5. Durable & Hygienic

Manufactured using high-quality materials, our sunbed cubicles are easy to clean and built to withstand the demands of daily salon use.

6. Stylish & Professional

Modern sunbed cubicles create a sleek, cohesive aesthetic. Whether you’re going for a premium feel or a practical layout, we can tailor the design to match your brand and space.

Family Cubicles in Washroom Layouts

Posted on by epcotcubicles

Epcot Cubicles Report

Exploring the Inclusion of a Family Cubicle in Washroom Layouts

Introduction

As a leading provider of bespoke washroom solutions across the UK, Epcot Cubicles continues to support evolving needs in modern washroom design. One key trend gaining momentum is the integration of family cubicles — enhanced spaces that accommodate parents or guardians with young children in a private, functional environment.

This report outlines the benefits, practical design considerations, and sector-specific relevance of incorporating a family cubicle into toilet cubicle areas.

1. What is a Family Cubicle?

A family cubicle is a larger-than-standard toilet cubicle designed to allow:

  • A parent or guardian to assist a child.

  • Space for pushchairs or prams.

  • Greater comfort and privacy for multiple users.

  • Access to baby-changing facilities in a secure, enclosed space.

2. Benefits for Clients and End Users

Benefit Description
Improved Experience Families can use the facilities together in privacy, making public washrooms more convenient.
Accessibility & Inclusion Supports a wide range of users, including single parents, carers, and children with additional needs.
Added Value to Facilities A modern expectation in high-footfall venues such as shopping centres, attractions, and transport hubs.
Brand & Reputation Boost Demonstrates a family-friendly, inclusive ethos that resonates with today’s users.

3. Epcot Design Recommendations

To ensure a functional and durable family cubicle, Epcot Cubicles recommends:

  • Increased footprint: Typically 1.5 to 2 times a standard cubicle size.

  • Durable finishes: Use of Compact Grade Laminate (CGL) for hygiene, longevity, and easy cleaning.

  • Fixtures:

  • Accessibility features: Wide door opening, low thresholds, and good manoeuvrability for pushchairs.

All layouts can be designed to align with Building Regulations Part M and BS8300 best practices.

4. Sector Suitability

Sector Suitability Comments
Retail Parks & Shopping Centres ✅✅✅✅ High user demand.
Leisure Centres & Attractions ✅✅✅✅✅ Strong case for multiple family-friendly options.
Healthcare & GP Practices ✅✅✅ Ideal for outpatient areas with families.
Primary Education Facilities ✅✅ Particularly relevant for nursery or infant school settings.
Modular Buildings ✅✅ Feasible in larger public-facing modules, especially in leisure or retail.

5. Epcot Implementation Advice

Epcot Cubicles can work with architects, facility managers, and contractors to create bespoke family toilet cubicles that complement the rest of the washroom layout. Key tips include:

  • Strategic placement near accessible or baby change areas.

  • Inclusive signage with clear family-friendly icons.

  • Robust hardware and privacy locks for security and ease of use.

  • Weekly UK-wide delivery ensures timely installation even on tight project schedules.

Conclusion

The inclusion of family toilet cubicles demonstrates a forward-thinking, user-first approach to washroom design. As part of Epcot Cubicles’ commitment to quality, flexibility, and reliability, we are well-placed to deliver tailored solutions for clients seeking to enhance accessibility and usability in their washroom spaces.

Whether for modular builds, public facilities, or leisure sectors, a family cubicle is a smart, inclusive addition to modern toilet cubicle layouts.
