Stop school toilets smelling: proven solutions for education environments
Unpleasant smells in school toilets are one of the most common complaints from students, staff and visitors. Despite regular cleaning, high footfall and limited ventilation can lead to persistent odours that affect hygiene standards and the overall school environment. AIRsteril provides an effective, science-backed solution to stop school toilets smelling and create a cleaner, fresher atmosphere.
Why do school toilets smell?
School washrooms, especially those used by boys or younger pupils, often face a combination of poor ventilation, high usage and inconsistent hygiene. Odours build up quickly in these settings, and once established, can be difficult to remove using conventional methods. Air fresheners may temporarily disguise the problem, but they do not remove the cause.
A safer, more sustainable approach
AIRsteril technology works by continuously treating the air to eliminate the bacteria and organic compounds that cause unpleasant smells. Unlike chemical sprays or masking agents, AIRsteril offers a permanent solution that works around the clock to improve the environment.
Our units are safe to use while rooms are occupied and require minimal upkeep. There are no cartridges to replace, no batteries to change, and no harmful emissions. A simple annual lamp change is all that is needed. This makes AIRsteril a greener choice for schools focused on sustainability and cost efficiency.
Proven results in busy washrooms
Independent testing and real-world applications show that AIRsteril systems:
• eliminate odours entirely rather than covering them up
• help reduce absenteeism by improving air quality
• improve perceptions of hygiene and cleanliness
• support infection control policies without adding chemical exposure
Designed for education environments
Whether you need a solution for small cubicles or large shared washrooms, AIRsteril offers compact, quiet units that blend into the school setting and work without interruption or supervision.
Breathe new life into your school washrooms If you're managing a primary, secondary or further education facility, AIRsteril can help you create a cleaner, fresher and more sustainable environment for your students and staff.
"The UK banking centre at Canary Wharf is populated with modern skyscrapers featuring the latest in office building technology. The Credit Suisse UK HeadQuarters allows staff to make the most of windows which has meant that the main building services are sited in the middle of the building. As such with long air ducting, their luxury washrooms struggle to maintain air quality and a clean, fresh smelling work place.
They have installed AIRsteril for odour and infection control in their washrooms. Convinced that the bacteria and viruses that cause infections are killed by AIRsteril, the new offices will feature MF units to ensure staff absenteeism is kept to a minimum."
Marylebone Cricket Club
"On a Test Match day at Lord's there are 25,000 people, mostly males, spending all day watching cricket and drinking. With several visits per person during the day the gents toilets can have up to a 10,000 footfall a day. The staff have had difficulty in clearing the resulting odours. The stainless steel trough urinals in some of the washrooms create added problems.
Just in time for a major Test Match, AIRsteril WRX trial units were installed in two of the major washrooms. After just a few hours, the units had managed to get on top of the smell, then controlled the odours throughout the 5 day match. The facilities staff are very pleased and plan to increase the number of installations before the start of the next cricket season."
