Duravit Medical & Barrier-Free Toilets and Basins
The Duravit Medical & Barrier-Free bathroom collection brings together specialist toilets and washbasins designed for accessible bathrooms, healthcare environments, retirement facilities, rehabilitation centres, hospitality projects and public or semi-public washrooms.
Duravit’s Vital bathroom products are designed to help people with reduced mobility use the bathroom more independently. Selected products from the D-Code, DuraStyle, Starck 3 and Architec collections provide solutions specifically developed for wheelchair accessibility and easier transfer.
Barrier-free washbasins are designed with wheelchair access in mind, providing sufficient clearance underneath the basin and positioning the washing area within comfortable reach. Selected D-Code, DuraStyle and Starck 3 Vital basins can be installed with flat or concealed traps to maximise knee and wheelchair clearance. Architec also offers wheelchair-accessible basin solutions.
Duravit Vital toilets address the specific requirements of accessible bathrooms through increased projection and appropriate installation heights. Selected models feature a projection of approximately 700 mm and can be installed to achieve a seat height of around 450–500 mm, helping make transfers between a wheelchair and toilet easier.
For medical and healthcare environments, Duravit offers specialist washbasins designed with hygiene and ease of cleaning as key priorities. Medical models are available from selected Architec, D-Code, DuraStyle, Starck 3 and Vero ranges. Options include basins without conventional overflow openings and models with hygienically sealed overflow channels, helping reduce areas where dirt and bacteria can accumulate.
Selected medical toilets also include washout configurations, which can be useful in clinical and care environments where visual inspection may be required. Durable sanitary ceramic surfaces are designed for straightforward cleaning and compatibility with the demanding hygiene requirements of healthcare facilities.
The Duravit D-Code range also offers dedicated Vital and Med versions, making it particularly suitable for hospitals, medical practices, nursing homes, rehabilitation facilities, accessible residential bathrooms and public projects requiring specialist sanitaryware.
When designing an accessible bathroom, the basin and toilet should be specified together with suitable grab rails, concealed cisterns, installation frames, taps and other components according to the individual user's requirements and the applicable building and accessibility regulations.
