Tenant improvement fit-out: a guide to going touch-free

Let’s work together to create safe spaces where we can limit the spread of germs, starting from the basic fit-out plan. With Covid-19, how we approach high-touch areas of any workplace will be impacted. When improving a tenant fit-out, the emphasis needs to be on reducing the number of touch-points and leveraging as many hands-free and touch-free options as possible. In this new world, these technologies that were deemed luxuries have now shown themselves to be essential to limit the spread of germs and necessary for a safe business environment.

Here are our recommendations on key products for a safe, touch-free tenant improvement fit-out: 

 

 Washrooms:

 

 Washrooms are arguably the most important area to focus on to reduce the spread of germs. The close quarters and the importance of hygiene are imperative. Washrooms should be fitted with: 

 

 Sensor operated flush valves for washrooms and urinals 

• Low flows available with full replacement 
• SMO – side mount overrides are available for budget renovations
• Quick connect MJ couplings to reduce time on-site for installation

 

 Sensor operated faucets & under counter lavatories

 

• Under counter lavatories make for more effective cleaning
• Low-flows available, and space-saving above deck mixing valves. 
• Matching sensor-operated soap dispensers, non-fillable to prevent bacterial growth

 

High-traffic areas

 

Our hands are a petri dish of bacteria and with the spread of viruses such as COVID-19, there’s a logical focus on changing behaviors to avoid unnecessary contact. Here are some products that can change how we interact with the environment around us:
