Bradley Toilet Partitions

Bradley toilet partitions have been used in a wide range of applications. Over the past decade, a number of very unique projects have been undertaken throughout the United States that reveal the unique properties of these durable and decorative commercial washroom fixtures. This diversity of use is a testament to a versatility and viability of design that reveals a recession proof synthesis of superior functionality and aesthetic.

One of the more recent projects involved the construction of the first LEED certified museum in the state of Wisconsin. This facility was a children’s museum intended to teach green lifestyle practices. Bradley partitions made from Bradmar®, a proprietary Bradley material, were used in the restrooms. This special material is made from recycled HDPE plastic.

Since many of the children who now visit this museum were already in the habit of recycling milk jugs at the time the museum was built, the new restroom stalls give the kids a firsthand view of how recycling can be used not only as a tool of saving our natural environment, but also in the construction of advanced, new, manmade environments.

Another project showcases the aesthetic power of Bradley toilet partitions. This was an airport renovation in Colorado where the architects and terminal manager decided to create a restroom interior whose color scheme reflected that of the surrounding Rocky Mountains.

Accordingly, fusion granite and stainless steel were chosen as the partition materials. Functionally, these materials also feature durability and a vandal resistance that makes them ideally suited to high traffic areas. They resist scratches and dents, and they are easy to wipe clean. This makes maintenance quick, simple, and cost effective. Still another project, undertaken in North Texas, involved the installation of solid plastic Bradley toilet partitions in a recreational center. As in the case of the Colorado airport, vandal resistance was a priority here. People do write graffiti on partition surfaces, and people do scratch these surfaces, both intentionally and unintentionally.

Solid plastic can be wiped clean of graffiti because of its superior moisture resistance. Scratches can be easily and cost effectively repaired with a heat gun.

A fourth project we would like to reference also involved the installation of solid plastic toilet partitions. This was in a Colorado sports stadium, where Bradmar® Bradley toilet partitions were again chosen for their superior vandal resistance and aesthetic qualities.

In sports stadiums, visiting teams can and do take out their anger on lockers and partitions. Metal dents too easily, so plastic was the logical choice of materials whose aesthetic also contributes to a clean, upbeat appearance of a fine athletic center.

The director of the project particularly liked the color choices that were available. The dark gray with speckled texture superbly complimented the black, gray, and silver of the building interior. Since repeat ticket sales are the lifeblood of the facility’s revenue stream, the aesthetic contribution that solid plastic Bradley toilet partitions made to the stadium’s attraction factor has played a signifance role in the generation of tangible, financial returns on investment.
