Key challenges
Maintaining clean and functional toilets at LaGuardia Airport Terminal B is important for the comfort and convenience of passengers and visitors. This involves regular cleaning and sanitization of all toilet facilities, including sinks, toilets, and urinals. It is also important to ensure that all toilet fixtures and amenities, such as soap and hand dryers, are fully stocked and in good working order. In addition, it is important to promptly address any issues or maintenance needs that may arise, such as clogged toilets or broken fixtures. To maintain high standards of cleanliness and functionality, it is essential to have a dedicated team of custodial staff responsible for cleaning and maintaining the toilets at Terminal B. This team should be trained in proper cleaning techniques and equipped with the necessary tools and supplies to keep the toilets in top condition.
Solution implementation
Following a process of elimination and debate, the solution that was chosen for the airport was one of our latest developments: the Tubular Series. A modern and sleek look that saves a lot of space and matches nearly any space. Being wall-mounted and nearly entirely seamless meant this faucet was not just more vandal resistant than average, but it was easy to clean and maintain.

Millions of visitors get to enjoy these faucets daily and hurry off for their flights with clean uncontaminated hands.
