Marine links impacted on design

Specialist in automatic washroom technology, Dart Valley Systems, describes how it has evolved its products and technologies to meet changing demands, explains what sets it apart from its competitors – for instance its use of materials technology deployed in ballistic armour and other marine-based products for many years, and focuses on some of the demanding sector-specific criteria it is asked to meet, including from mental healthcare specifiers, and how it addresses them.  

Dart Valley Systems (DVS) has manufactured and supplied electronic water efficiency controls since 1985, specialising in the design and manufacture of high quality washroom controls including bath, tap, shower, WC, and urinal controls. In the past 15 years we have also ventured into the safe en suite sanitaryware market, producing a lightweight, extremely strong en suite suitable for use in the mental health and acute healthcare sectors. The range is also ideal for high security washrooms or any other specialist applications

Our products are designed for the toughest environments, and manufactured using the latest advanced technologies, and we pride ourselves on innovative, high quality systems designed with the healthcare sector in mind. We have, for example, seen our range of Safe Ensuite Sanitaryware and accessories go from strength to strength, as more and more private healthcare providers and NHS Trusts install and see the benefits of these products. From anti-shatter moulded resins to integrated ligature-resistant water-saving spouts, the reliability and durability is unrivalled.
