Healthcare furniture at Kingston Hospital

The fitted furniture includes base and wall units, worktops, shelving, storage systems, counter tops and reception desks, as well as other specialist equipment.

All base and wall carcasses are constructed from 18mm thick, rigid-dowelled MFC (melamine-faced chipboard) to guarantee sturdy and long lasting units, with all exposed edges coated in melamine for a smooth, hygienic and easy clean finish.

This construction project at Kingston Hospital is the result of a partnership with The Royal Marsden Hospital and Macmillan Cancer Support; the completion of the Oncology building will culminate with the opening of the new Sir William Rous Unit. This new cancer unit will provide chemotherapy treatment for outpatients, diagnostic clinics and access to support services.
