Venesta is a leading manufacturer of commercial washroom systems for healthcare environments. Our products are specified on new build and refurbishment projects for hospitals, mental health facilities and community healthcare settings across the UK and internationally. We work closely with NHS trusts, architects, contractors and estates teams to deliver washroom systems that meet the highest standards of hygiene, safety and long-term performance.
Healthcare environments place unique demands on washroom design. Infection control, durability, accessibility and ease of maintenance are critical, often within buildings that are in constant use. Venesta designs and manufactures washroom systems that respond directly to these challenges, supporting healthcare providers to deliver safe, resilient and compliant facilities.
Designed for demanding healthcare settings
We design and manufacture high-quality, compliant washroom systems built to perform in demanding healthcare environments where hygiene and reliability are essential. Our systems are engineered to withstand intensive daily use while supporting rigorous cleaning regimes and ongoing maintenance requirements.
Our experienced specification team provides practical input throughout the design and procurement process. From early-stage feasibility through to detailed specification, we support project teams in making informed decisions that reduce risk, simplify installation and improve whole-life value. This collaborative approach helps ensure that washroom systems are correctly specified from the outset, avoiding costly changes later in the project.
Proven experience in healthcare
Venesta is an established supplier of washroom systems to healthcare environments, with over 60 years of continuous involvement across hospitals, mental health facilities, outpatient clinics and community healthcare settings. This depth of sector knowledge has shaped the Vepps® Healthcare range and underpins long-standing relationships with recognised industry partners, including Armitage Shanks.
Our systems are developed in direct response to the operational demands of healthcare estates. They are designed to support continuous use, minimise downtime and maintain safe, reliable access to services across large and complex sites. Requirements such as infection control, durability and ease of maintenance are embedded into product design, from material selection through to system configuration.
A comprehensive healthcare-specific range
Our healthcare products are designed specifically for the sector, allowing projects to be specified with confidence. All Vepps Healthcare units are pre-plumbed at our UK manufacturing facility. This controlled process improves build quality and typically reduces on-site installation time by up to 50%, helping projects stay on programme and reducing disruption within live healthcare environments.
Vepps Hygen is our all-in-one healthcare IPS solution, designed to deliver a clean, durable and easy-to-maintain finish. The single-piece SGL construction minimises joints and seams, supporting effective cleaning, long-term infection control and durability. Lockable, hinged doors and panels provide quick and straightforward access to concealed duct spaces, enabling maintenance teams to carry out essential works efficiently.
Vepps Hygen Plus introduces greater design flexibility while maintaining the same high standards of hygiene and robustness. Satin anodised aluminium corner extrusions remove traditional sheet size limitations, allowing longer runs, more complex layouts and robust between-walls solutions. This flexibility is particularly valuable on larger schemes or where layouts need to adapt to clinical requirements.
Vepps recessed and boxed-out units provide further options where building constraints or service requirements vary. Recessed units reduce projections into circulation spaces, supporting safety and ease of cleaning. Boxed-out units accommodate services where wall depth is limited, making them well suited to refurbishment projects or older buildings with restricted service zones.
All Vepps Healthcare products are designed to meet the requirements of HBN 00-10 Part C. Components are WRAS listed or self-certified as compliant, supporting confidence in regulatory compliance and performance.
Supporting specification and delivery
Beyond product design and manufacture, Venesta provides comprehensive specification support. Our team works closely with project stakeholders to develop solutions that balance clinical requirements, budget and programme constraints. Detailed technical information, drawings and product data are provided to support clear and accurate specification.
This proactive approach helps reduce risk during procurement and installation, supporting smoother delivery on site and more reliable long-term performance once the building is in use.
Responsible manufacturing
Venesta manufactures in the UK and operates ISO 14001-certified environmental management processes. Sustainability is embedded into how we design and manufacture washroom systems, without compromising hygiene, safety or durability.
Our operations achieve zero waste to landfill, utilise renewable energy and prioritise FSC®-certified materials. By designing systems that are built to last, we help healthcare providers reduce replacement cycles and long-term environmental impact while maintaining high standards of performance.
Trusted washroom systems for healthcare
With decades of experience, a dedicated healthcare product range and a commitment to quality and compliance, Venesta is a trusted partner for healthcare washroom projects. Our systems are designed to support clinical care, simplify maintenance and deliver reliable performance over the life of the building.
