At Goss, we specialise in creating hygienic, safe, and functional environments with our advanced hygienic wall cladding solutions. By securely enclosing pipes, cables, and other utilities, we ensure critical spaces like hospitals, laboratories, and food processing facilities remain easy to clean and compliant with stringent hygiene standards.
Ensuring Impeccable Hygiene with Expert Boxing In
Boxing in utilities is a fundamental aspect of our approach, allowing us to encapsulate essential services within durable, hygienic cladding systems. This process is particularly vital in environments where cleanliness is paramount, such as healthcare facilities, pharmaceutical production areas, and commercial kitchens.
By enclosing exposed utilities, we not only enhance the aesthetics of the space but also mitigate contamination risks, ensuring compliance with rigorous health and safety regulations.
Advanced Techniques Tailored for Excellence
Our boxing-in methods incorporate cutting-edge techniques designed to deliver seamless, hygienic, and long-lasting finishes:
Thermoforming for Precision Fitting
Our technicians thermoform hygienic cladding materials to achieve a tailored fit around complex structures and utilities. This process ensures a smooth, gap-free surface that prevents the build-up of dirt and bacteria, making cleaning simple and effective.
Hot Welding for Seamless Integration
Cladding sections are joined using hot welding techniques, where the edges are fused together. This creates robust, watertight seals that eliminate weak points where contaminants might infiltrate, ensuring a pristine and durable surface.
Silicone Sealing for Added Protection
We use silicone sealants to reinforce gaps and joints that can’t be welded, providing airtight and waterproof barriers. This final step offers an extra layer of defence, critical in demanding environments like pharmaceutical labs and food processing areas, where hygiene and durability are non-negotiable.
Versatile Applications Across Diverse Industries
Our hygienic cladding solutions are tailored to the specific needs of diverse sectors, ensuring top-tier performance in every application:
- Healthcare: Creating sterile environments in hospitals, clinics, and laboratories to protect patient health and meet stringent regulatory standards.
- Food Processing: Enabling safe food preparation and packaging by maintaining high standards of cleanliness and hygiene.
- Pharmaceuticals: Safeguarding production processes and sensitive materials against contamination in biotechnology and pharmaceutical facilities.
Raising Standards with Hygienic Cladding Boxing In
At Goss, we recognise that boxing in utilities is about more than improving appearances; it is a vital step in creating safe, hygienic environments. Exposed pipes and cables can be a source of contamination and operational inefficiency. By integrating boxing in with our hygienic wall cladding systems, we offer a comprehensive solution that supports industry-leading cleanliness, operational safety, and compliance.
Case Study: Hygienic Wall Cladding at The Courtauld Institute of Art
The works were to the walls of a BOH corridor at The Courtauld Institute of Art, Somerset House.
This was another visit from our Hygienic Cladding team to this renowned gallery, particularly known for its Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings.
The imposing narrow spaces received intricate boxing in. Our cladding team needed to manoeuvre each piece of cladding within the tight spaces and retain a perfect finish. Corners were thermoformed and sheets hot welded together, creating clean lines and a superior finish.
Case Study: School in Enfield
Trovex Satin White hygienic cladding was installed in several toilet and shower facilities, each requiring boxing in of services to create maintenance-friendly surfaces. The hygienic cladding installers carefully selected the positioning and method of thermoforming sheets to achieve the cleanest, most maintenance-friendly finish.
Case Study: Prestigious School in London
This space required a unique and complex cladding installation. Several overhangs required Trovex Satin White hygienic cladding installation to create a maintenance-friendly space. Our expert cladding installers meticulously planned the thermoforming and jointing of all boxed elements. The result minimised the loss of space and headroom.
Conclusion
Goss is committed to delivering superior hygienic wall cladding solutions that enhance safety, hygiene, and operational efficiency. By combining innovative techniques with expert craftsmanship, we empower organisations to maintain pristine environments that meet and exceed industry requirements.
Whether in healthcare, food processing, or any other hygiene-critical sector, our solutions provide the reliability and excellence you can depend on.
