Education Furniture & Washroom Solutions
BRAC Projects manufactures and installs durable furniture and washroom solutions for schools, colleges, universities and educational facilities across the UK. We work directly with main contractors, architects, consultants and educational procurement teams to deliver science laboratory furniture, toilet cubicles, IPS duct panelling, changing room solutions, bespoke storage and communal area furniture — built to withstand intensive daily use in demanding educational environments.
Education is one of our largest sectors. The specification challenges are specific: materials need to survive constant use by large numbers of children or young people, comply with safeguarding and accessibility requirements, and hold up to aggressive cleaning regimes without degrading. We design and manufacture with all of those demands in mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
What materials are best for school toilet cubicles?
Solid grade laminate is the standard specification for school toilet cubicles. It is fully waterproof, impact-resistant and solid all the way through — there is no absorbent core to swell when exposed to moisture or cleaning chemicals. For primary schools, cubicle heights are often reduced to suit younger users, and colourful finishes are available. Solid surface wash troughs replace individual basins in many primary school washrooms, reducing water usage and maintenance.
Can BRAC Projects work during school holidays and out of hours?
Yes. We regularly schedule installation to work around school term times, completing work during holiday periods or out of hours to avoid disrupting pupils and staff. Our project programmes are agreed in advance with the school and main contractor, and we coordinate deliveries to avoid peak arrival and departure times.
Do school washroom cubicles need to meet specific standards?
Yes. School washrooms must comply with Building Bulletin 103 (BB103 — Area Guidelines for Mainstream Schools) for the number and type of sanitary provisions, and with Approved Document M for accessible provision. BRAC Projects designs cubicle layouts to meet these requirements, and bespoke manufacture ensures accessible dimensions are hit exactly rather than compromised around catalogue sizes.
Can you supply laboratory furniture for school science rooms?
Yes. School science laboratory furniture — benching, worktops, storage, sink units and service solutions — is part of our education scope. We manufacture to the dimensions of the specific room after a site survey, and specify materials appropriate to the science being taught: chemical-resistant worktops for chemistry, standard laminate worktops for general science.
What is the lead time for school washroom or laboratory projects?
Lead time depends on scope. A straightforward washroom — cubicles, IPS panels and vanity — typically takes two to four weeks from confirmed order to installation. Laboratory furniture projects with bespoke benching and service integration run longer. We provide a detailed programme at quotation stage so the timeline can be confirmed against the school’s term calendar.
