As part of the ongoing Travelodge relationship , Traveldoge have confirmed that they no longer would like tiles in their ensuite bathroom pods.

MD Mr S Walker “ The use of the Walker Modular composite bathroom pod allows our clients the option of removing traditional tiling from their bathrooms. Our walls are made of similar material to corian, only unlike corian our wall surface is both antifungal and antibacterial. The bathroom will look as good in 10 years time as it does today. This leads to a lower lifecycle cost to the hotelier and a greater occupancy rate in the future. Areas that were once tiled now have our innovative granite effect tiled walling system.”
