Sweet Sparkman Designs Touchless Restrooms for Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport

Business

In an ongoing effort to enhance safety at Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport (SRQ), the facility has chosen Sweet Sparkman Architecture and Interiors to modernize and improve its restrooms, transforming them with additional “touchless” elements to inhibit the spread of germs.

The restrooms, which already have no-touch faucets, are slated to add features that are not only attractive but also “clean, safe and hygienic,” explained Sweet Sparkman Architecture and Interiors founder Todd Sweet, AIA, LEED AP. For instance, he said, touchless soap dispensers will be added and paper towels dispensers will be relocated to behind the mirrors at the sink. With trash containers moved to under the sink, the elements combine to provide convenience, improve general safety and limit patrons’ exposure to bacteria on surfaces.

The project builds on existing efforts to protect the health of travelers going through SRQ, said Rick Piccolo, SRQ president and CEO. “We’re already following all CDC guidelines for restroom cleanliness,” he explained, “with enhanced cleaning procedures using hospital-grade products.” This renovation he said, will further enhance these efforts to an even greater level of preventive measures. The project will be completed in an expedited process to effect the changes as soon as possible, according to Piccolo. “These types of projects are important to us,” said Sweet. “Though small in scale, they impact lives. We’re proud to partner with SRQ to help keep our residents and visitors safe.”
