Grant Westfield to demonstrate practical and stylish accessible bathrooms at Housing 2026

Grant Westfield, the company behind leading wall panel brands Multipanel and Naturepanel, will return to Housing 2026 to showcase how accessible bathroom spaces can successfully combine practicality, durability and contemporary design.

The exhibition, taking place at Manchester Central from 23–25 June, brings together housing professionals from across the social and affordable housing sectors. At Stand G29, Grant Westfield will demonstrate how decorative waterproof wall panels can help housing providers, contractors and specifiers deliver accessible bathroom environments that are functional, low maintenance and visually appealing for residents.

With accessible housing continuing to be a major focus across the sector, Grant Westfield will use the event to highlight how inclusive bathroom design no longer needs to feel clinical or purely functional. Visitors will be able to explore a range of wall panel solutions designed to create welcoming, hardwearing spaces that support both practical requirements and improved resident experiences.

The stand will showcase products from the Multipanel and Naturepanel collections, including designs suited to everyday housing applications and refurbishment schemes. A dedicated Laura Ashley feature wall will also demonstrate how decorative finishes can introduce warmth, texture and character into accessible bathroom environments while maintaining durability and ease of maintenance.

Grant Westfield’s grout-free wall panels offer a practical alternative to traditional tiling for planned works, refurbishment programmes and void property turnarounds. The large-format panels are designed to reduce installation time, simplify cleaning and minimise long-term maintenance requirements, while creating a smooth, high-quality finish with fewer visible joints.

The systems are also designed for straightforward installation, helping contractors reduce time on site and minimise disruption for residents — an important consideration for social housing providers carrying out occupied bathroom refurbishments.

Throughout the event, Grant Westfield’s specification team will be available to discuss how Multipanel and Naturepanel can support projects of varying sizes and requirements, from accessible bathroom upgrades to wider housing refurbishment programmes. Advice will also be available on design options, installation considerations and the long-term benefits of specifying waterproof wall panel systems across housing stock.

Sustainability and whole-life value will also be key themes on the stand. Manufactured in the UK using FSC-certified materials, Multipanel and Naturepanel panels offer a durable, low-maintenance solution for landlords seeking to balance cost efficiency, resident satisfaction and design appeal, while also helping reduce CO₂ emissions compared with traditional tiles.

A spokesperson for Grant Westfield said: “Accessible bathrooms are an important focus for many organisations across the housing sector, but practical spaces can still feel considered, comfortable and design-led. At Housing 2026, we want to show how wall panels can help create bathrooms that work for residents, contractors and housing providers alike.”
