GEC supplies facilities for London primary school

Stainless-steel worktops, cabinets and sanitaryware from GEC Anderson are supporting the learning process at a North London primary school.

GEC products - installed as part of a major renovation programme - are intended to give each classroom a practical and durable solution for dealing with art and other 'wet' learning needs at Fitzjohn's Primary School in Hampstead.

The school has fitted GEC sinktops and worktops in each of its classrooms, as well as in the main kitchen, the laundry room and the staffroom, where the ability to easily maintain hygienic conditions is an important consideration.

Typically, the installations consist of worktops of up to 3.2m in length, with integral stainless-steel sinks and water-retaining edges all round to contain spillages and to facilitate cleaning.

The worktops are mounted on matching wall-hung stainless-steel base cabinets, which offer practical, easy-to-maintain storage, according to the company.

Stainless-steel drinking fountains from GEC's sanitaryware range have been installed at key locations.

Rob Earrey, head teacher, said: 'We needed something that would meet the challenges of a primary-school environment.

'Our architects recommended this solution because it offers the functionality that we want.

'It's strong, long-lasting and has great visual impact too,' he added.
