MANUFACTURED EXCELLENCE Saponé Bathrooms are manufactured in a controlled factory environment and are high quality, fully functional and indistinguishable from a conventionally built bathroom. Our bathrooms can be produced cost effectively and quickly – without ever compromising our clients’ expectations. Two of the most important requirements for any construction project are programme and cost certainty. Bathrooms are the most complex aspect of any build, and often fraught with problems.
Construction site environments, limited supervision, weather conditions, health and safety concerns, and poor performing contractors can all escalate building costs and significantly affect the programme. The result – build time and quality compromised.
Stop this happening by producing bathrooms offsite to a fixed cost, and under strict quality control procedures, and then delivered to site at a pre-specified time. Construction programmes can be easily maintained and on-site problems significantly reduced. International experience has shown that programme duration can be reduced by 20% through the utilisation of prefabricated bathrooms. The result – satisfied clients with quality products.
Saponé Bathrooms are a revolutionary approach to bathroom construction. The prefabricated bathrooms are designed for builders, developers and architects seeking to include premium bathrooms in their construction programmes while increasing profitability, and reducing construction time.

Throughout the production process, we test and certify all bathrooms before shrink wrapping and delivering them to the project site. This process creates uniformity and helps prevent costly delays and chargebacks
With a completed high quality product delivered on-site and on schedule, ready to plug and play, Saponé prebuilt bathrooms keep construction projects ahead of the critical path and in the end, increase the project’s bottom line while reducing overall risk.

MANUFACTURING Saponé Bathrooms uses cutting edge technology and a seamless production line process to produce our bathrooms. Each bathroom is created using drawing software that communicates the critical parameters of the bathroom’s structural panels to a CNC machining centre which fabricates each element to exacting specifications. The bathroom walls and ceilings are made from solid structural timber panels, whilst the floor incorporates our own ultra thin patented flooring system that unlike other manufacturers precludes the need for a rebate to be constructed into the building platform. Our bathroom simply sit directly on top of the slab.

Our revolutionary monocoque wall construction enables us to build bathrooms that are extremely rigid with negligible deflection properties, critical attributes for transporting the product to site. The bathrooms are manufactured in sequence and pass through a number of stages during which operations and quality are strictly controlled. The units are fully decorated and fitted out to our Clients’ specifications with all sanitary ware, tiling, shower screens, plumbing, electrical connections, mirrors, right down to the toilet roll holder.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Can you manufacture a custom shape of layout? Yes. Our bathrooms are 100% custom manufactured and can be tailored to suit virtually any design, installation and functional requirement. Do I need to change the construction process to accommodate a Saponé Bathrooms? Changes, if any, are minimal. We require room to insert the bathroom. How much notice do you need? The earlier we are involved with a project, the better, however we can be included as late as three months before the bathrooms are required. Although the suggestions we make are often minor, they can make a big difference towards reducing overall construction times. Is there a minimum order quantity? Experience shows that the most benefit comes when projects have 10 bathrooms or more. Minimising the number of bathroom types is critical to achieveing maxium savings.
Can I choose my own colours, finishes and fittings? Absolutely. You are never limited to choosing from a catalogue of interior elements. You have the freedom to select any colour, fitting and finish you desire.
