Baby Boom in the Bathroom - Creating Bathrooms also for children

Current design trends let us run riot when it comes to bathroom design. The unlimited choice and availability of products encourages us to come up with interesting solutions. However, we always want the bathroom to be safe, practical and clean, especially for families with children. At HOESCH, we know how to do that.

Safety first

When we have children, whether they are younger or older, we always want them to be safe. There are products on the market that "think about it for us". And if you are lacking ideas when it comes to designing the bathroom - that's where the HOESCH designers come in. If you are planning a shower tray, the company has introduced the Solique Pro solution, i.e. a non-slip coating that is permanently applied to the surface of the mineral cast shower tray. It is an ideal solution for small as well as older children. Solique Pro achieves slip class C and thus the highest possible classification of slip resistance in barefoot areas.

Threshold-free shower is another idea. It allows you to enter and leave the shower without collisions. Hoesch Solique shower trays made of mineral cast material can be installed without thresholds. They can be laid directly on the level floor provided (e.g. screed) - feet as well as frames are not required.

It should be clean and that's it!

What we often think about when designing a new bathroom surface is also the fact that we can keep it clean easily and quickly. Especially if we have small children at home. That's why it pays to go for high-quality materials, such as the cast mineral shower trays from HOESCH, which will look like new for many years to come.

But how do you keep the bathroom clean with an increased number of users? It's worth thinking about these solutions in the early stages of bathroom design for a larger family, which will make it easier for us to keep things tidy. At the end of the day, it's worth rinsing the bath and shower cubicle thoroughly and wiping them down with a sponge and light detergent at least once a week. This helps to prevent soap and stone deposits. The advantage of HOESCH products is that they are also easy to clean, e.g. by using a special Ever Clean coating in shower cubicles and steam baths.
