Charlie Bigham’s is a leading UK food producer, renowned for its premium ready meals crafted with fresh, quality ingredients. With a reputation for excellence and a commitment to staff welfare, the company continually invests in its facilities to maintain the highest operational and hygiene standards.

Charlie Bigham’s wanted to improve their washrooms to create a more comfortable and hygienic environment for their staff, ultimately supporting staff wellbeing and retention. In addition to the aesthetic and functional upgrades, the project aimed to address mechanical and drainage issues to ensure long-term performance.

Scope of work

Interfix delivered a complete commercial washroom fit-out, including:

• Removal of all existing appliances, cubicles, wall cladding, ceilings, and lighting
• Installation of wall tiling in the entrance corridor for a clean, durable finish
• New ceilings, energy-efficient lighting, and upgraded ventilation
• High-quality cubicles and modern sanitaryware
• Corian wash troughs for improved hygiene and durability
• Hand dryers and new entrance doors for improved accessibility and hygiene control
• Wall replacement works where sections had rotted and were structurally unsound
• Replacement drainage pipework and a full mechanical system health survey to ensure long-term reliability
• Provision of temporary toilets for staff during the refurbishment

Challenges & solutions

The works were carried out within a fully functioning food manufacturing plant, requiring strict adherence to hygiene protocols. The service yard had restricted access and posed daily health and safety challenges. Interfix coordinated closely with site management to minimise disruption and ensure all safety requirements were met.

Despite the complexities, the refurbishment was completed efficiently, on schedule, and to the client’s high standards.

The result?

The upgraded high hygiene washrooms provide a bright, modern, and hygienic space that enhances staff comfort and supports retention. Mechanical and drainage improvements ensure the facilities are reliable and efficient for years to come.

Charlie Bigham’s selected Interfix for their proven ability to deliver complex projects in challenging environments, with minimal disruption to operations.
