'Sound' Toilet Seat Design
A design student from the UK has won the Design Innovation in Plastics Award, sponsored by Bayer MaterialScience. Derek Muir, a design student from the University of Huddersfield, is the winner of this year’s ‘Design Innovation in Plastics’ competition.
His entry, the ‘Stingray’ toilet seat, won praise from the judges for its design, aesthetics and careful choice of material – in this case integral skin polyurethane foams from Baydur and Bayflex product lines from Bayer MaterialScience. The toilet seat reduces noise by 40 percent and is ideally suited for parents who may not flush toilets at night in case it might wake up young children. The design works through the underside of the seat forming a complete seal around the rim, plus constant contact between seat and lid, when the lid is lowered. The use of Bayflex for the seat makes it comfortable, chemically resistant and easy to clean.
