Changing Tables & Freestanding Changing Units in Various Designs
The foldable changing table is an essential element for equipping a public restroom in buildings such as shopping malls, community centers, or other public places. However, these changing tables are also perfect for private baby rooms, allowing you to change, wash, or dress your child comfortably. Compared to a freestanding changing unit, foldable changing tables are extremely space-saving and can be mounted directly on the wall, making them one of the most popular changing table options. These items are particularly ideal for small spaces. Our range includes a wide selection of horizontal and vertical changing tables in various designs.
Functionality of a Foldable Changing Table
A foldable changing table is equipped with a hinge, allowing the changing mat to be folded either vertically or horizontally, depending on the model. This creates a comfortable changing surface, which takes up no space when not in use. Many models also feature shelves or drawers in the wall unit, allowing you to store baby powder, nappies, or other changing accessories. Due to their minimal space requirements, foldable changing tables are particularly suitable for public restrooms, especially in wheelchair-accessible and barrier-free washrooms.
Selecting the Right Changing Table
There are several criteria to consider when selecting the right changing table.
First, we recommend paying attention to the dimensions of different changing tables so you can estimate how much space they will take up. Our range includes compact models that require minimal space, as well as options with additional shelving on the wall mount for increased functionality.
Design is another important factor, which is why we offer a variety of high-quality materials and colours. Our selection includes changing tables made from wood, metal, and plastic. Wooden and stainless steel changing tables are particularly durable and long-lasting, while plastic models are lightweight and generally more affordable. We have the perfect design for every washroom, whether in aluminium, stainless steel, wood, or practical plastic.
In addition to material and size, colour plays a role in ensuring the changing station blends seamlessly into the room. Our models primarily come in neutral, modern colours such as black, white, grey, or brown. We also offer ladybird-themed changing tables, which are particularly popular in nurseries and kindergartens.
Mounting a Wall-Mounted Changing Table
Most foldable changing tables are securely mounted to the wall using multiple screws. The wall installation is straightforward and can generally be done by yourself. However, professional installation is also an option. The exact installation process varies by model and is detailed in the instruction manual included in the packaging. Most changing tables come with the necessary screws, so you only need a screwdriver or power drill for assembly. In public buildings and new constructions, installation is often carried out by a plumbing technician using a concrete drill, anchor bolts, or wall plugs to ensure a secure fit. Plumbing professionals can also benefit from attractive resale conditions.
Changing Table Pads
Many of our changing table models come with comfortable changing pads, which can be reordered even years after the initial purchase.
Advantages at a Glance:
• Ideal for compact and small spaces
• Quick and flexible installation
• Safe design with rounded edges
Mobile Changing Tables: Flexibility for Your Daily Routine
For parents or facilities that value flexibility, mobile changing tables are the best choice. They can be easily moved from room to room, adapting to your needs. This is particularly useful for nurseries, hotels, or at home when the changing area shouldn’t be fixed in one place.
Practical Applications:
• At home as a temporary changing station in the living room or bathroom
• In nurseries for flexible care areas
• Space-saving and easy to move
• Simple to clean and store
• Stable and secure thanks to high-quality materials
What Size Changing Table Do You Need?
The ideal size of a changing table depends on the available space and the size of your baby. A standard changing table typically has a lying surface of around 70x50 cm. It is essential that the surface is large enough for your baby to lie comfortably and for you to have enough space for changing essentials. Compact or foldable models are ideal for small spaces.
Space-Saving Changing Tables for Small Homes
Not everyone has room for a large nursery. That’s why space-saving changing solutions are ideal:
• Wall-mounted changing tables: Simply fold them up after use, and they disappear neatly against the wall.
• Foldable freestanding changing tables: These models can be set up flexibly and stored away after changing.
The Best Materials for Changing Tables
When choosing a changing table, ensure it is made from durable and easy-to-clean materials. Our models are available in:
• Lacquered wood: Sturdy, long-lasting, and stylish
• Plastic: Easy to clean and hygienic
• Stainless steel: Lightweight yet robust, ideal for mobile models
Important: The surfaces should be free from harmful substances and safe for your baby’s sensitive skin.
