19 recycling Recycling of Palma Vita shower toilets for Local Authorities and Housing Associations that manage their own housing stock

Due to financial pressures on budgets we were approached by a number of local authorities and housing associations to see if we could help them make better use of Clos-o-Mat Palma Vita shower toilets that were no longer needed in their original location.

To deal with this we introduced a Clos-o-Mat factory refurbishment programme, which can provide toilets that are practically indistinguishable from our new units.*

● Allows for the use of the refurbished toilets by new clients

● Can help local authorities to save money, making better use of their budget

● Each factory refurbished Clos-o-Mat Palma Vita can be provided to a new customer with exactly the same guarantee that we provide for new units

● All products that benefit from our refurbishment programme are brought up to date with regards to current electrical and water regulations

NB The Recycling of Palma Vita WC's is subject to the initial condition of each unit. * The Clos-o-Mat Recycling programme is only available to Local Authorities and Housing Associations that manage their own housing stock.
