Case Study: Custom Solid Surface Ramp Basin for McDonald's New Zealand

Stonebaths Australia was approached by architects to design a custom solid surface ramp basin for McDonald's New Zealand. The objective was to create a basin that could seamlessly integrate the Dyson Airblade Wash & Dry unit while maintaining a sleek and modern appearance. This case study details Stonebaths' collaborative efforts with architects, manufacturers, and plumbers to deliver an innovative and functional solution.

Stonebaths' product development team began by brainstorming and sketching initial concepts. The goal was to balance functionality with visual appeal. Key considerations included:

• Ensuring the basin could handle the Dyson unit's operational requirements.
• Designing a sleek, continuous surface to hide the mechanics.

Once the design was finalized, Stonebaths collaborated with manufacturers to produce the custom basins. Utilizing solid surface materials allowed for:

• Durability and seamless finish.
• Molding to effectively hide the Dyson unit's components.
• Integrated channels to guide water flow efficiently.

Two custom basins were produced, each meticulously engineered to meet the specific requirements of McDonald's restrooms.
