When it comes to designing functional, durable spaces in Australian schools, choosing the right fixtures is critical. From classrooms to sports facilities and outdoor areas, stainless steel wash troughs have proven to be the leading solution for both new builds and upgrades.
At Marko Stainless, we specialise in manufacturing high-quality stainless wash troughs that are built to last — combining hygiene, strength, and smart design to meet the everyday demands of busy educational environments.
Durability That Withstands High Traffic
School environments experience heavy daily usage, especially in communal spaces like bathrooms, science labs, and outdoor play areas. Stainless steel is renowned for its exceptional durability, resisting dents, scratches, and corrosion even under constant use.
Unlike ceramic or laminate alternatives that can chip or crack, stainless steel wash troughs maintain their structure and appearance over many years, offering schools excellent value for money.
At Marko Stainless, we use premium Australian-grade materials to ensure our wash troughs are tough enough for any educational facility — from early learning centres to universities.
Hygiene and Easy Maintenance
In any educational setting, hygiene is non-negotiable. Stainless steel offers a naturally non-porous surface that inhibits the growth of bacteria, viruses, and mould. This makes it the ideal material for wash areas where cleanliness is a top priority.
Our stainless steel troughs are designed with smooth, easy-to-clean surfaces, eliminating hard-to-reach corners where germs could build up.
Routine maintenance is simple: a quick wipe with mild soapy water keeps the surface sparkling clean, without the need for harsh chemicals.
By investing in quality stainless wash troughs, schools can significantly reduce maintenance costs and improve hygiene outcomes for students and staff alike.
Customisation to Suit Every School
Every school has unique space and accessibility requirements. That’s why we offer a wide range of customisation options, including:
- Lengths and widths tailored to specific installation areas
- Number and placement of tap holes
- Splashback and apron designs
- Wall-mounted or freestanding options
- Compliance with AS1428 accessibility standards
Our team works closely with school builders, facility managers, and architects to deliver bespoke solutions that not only look great but also enhance functionality and inclusivity.
Whether you need a compact trough for a small classroom or a multi-user handwashing station for a busy canteen area, Marko Stainless can deliver.
Designed and Manufactured in Australia
Supporting local manufacturing matters — especially when quality and fast turnaround times are important. All our stainless steel wash troughs are designed and fabricated right here in Australia, ensuring full control over workmanship, materials, and delivery schedules.
Plus, with Australia’s strict standards for construction and materials, you can have confidence that your new wash troughs will meet all relevant regulations and stand up to real-world use.
