Braehead Shopping Centre
04-10-2022
Braehead shopping centre is one of Scotland’s leading shopping and entertainment destinations. The centre also prides itself on its accessibity, with plenty of disabled washroom facilities, sensory aids, changing rooms, 650 designated parking spaces and a dedicated Shopmobility service.
During a washroom refresh in 2021, Braehead shopping centre decided to procure new hand dryers. The Pebble hand dryer became the clear winner due to its elegant streamline design and low noise levels, as well as the solutions it offers to washrooms in high footfall venues.
A key driver for the project was the speed and ease of replacement if there should be a fault. The Pebbles True Plug & Play design makes replacing an out of service dryer simple and fast. More so because the Pebble includes a 24hr
turnaround warranty service! And, in the event that a dryer does need replacing, the dryer swap over is so easy that no expert knowledge or training is necessary!
Due to visitor volumes Braehead shopping centre also needs hygienic and robust dryers. Not only is the outer casing of the Pebble strong (IK08 rating), the dryer casing also has Ion Pure antimicrobial technology impregnated, meaning that germs and bacteria that make way onto its surface are eliminated.
Focussing our attention on the inside of the dryer, the Pebble also includes a smart HEPA iFilter that warns you when it needs replacing, and a brushless motor. So, the Pebble is cleaner and has a longer lifespan.
The Pebble seemed like the most obvious solution to the shopping centres washroom challenges.
CLIENT
Braehead shopping centre, one of Scotland’s leading shopping and entertainment destinations. It has over 1 million square feet of retail and leisure facilities and a high footfall.
PROJECT
Procurement of a stylish, hygienic, robust, and easily replaceable hand dryer which can be easily integrated into the washroom environment. A hand dryer that can accommodate large volumes of people daily.
SOLUTION
The Pebble
The Pebble, an innovative new dryer with a True Plug & Play feature. A machine built for high traffic footfall due to its speed, strength and ease of replacement with antimicrobial casing and a replaceable smart HEPA iFilter. What’s not to love!
“Unlike other hand dryers, the plug and play design of the Pebble is fantastic. The dryer looks sleek and modern. The noise level of the Pebble is very low in comparison to the dryers being replaced.
Our customer was extremely impressed with the dryer and reduced noise levels! The greatest benefit is that down time of the dryer due to any unforeseen faults is reduced to minutes instead of days, as any faulty units can be replaced easily by anyone - no need for an electrician.
I’ve seen many different hand dryers in the past 25 years and I’d say that the Pebble’s probably the most innovative, practical and stylish dryer I’ve seen in this time. Definitely a 5 star product.”
