Container Ablution Block for Sale in Kenya: The Instant Sanitary Solution

Providing clean, secure, and easily maintainable sanitary facilities is a legal requirement and a necessity for any successful project, event, or institution. Container Ablution Blocks from Frontier Containers EA Limited offer the definitive solution: a modular, robust, and “plug-and-play” washroom facility ready for immediate use.¹

We convert heavy-duty shipping containers into complete washroom complexes—equipped with toilets, urinals, showers, and handwashing basins—perfect for construction sites, remote camps, schools, markets, and disaster relief areas.

The Ablution Block Advantage: Hygiene Meets Durability

Unlike traditional permanent structures, our container units are built for maximum durability, security, and hygiene control.

• Plug-and-Play Plumbing: Our systems are pre-installed and pressure-tested in our yard. The units arrive ready to connect directly to your external sewer/septic tank and water supply.

• Ultimate Hygiene: The interior features waterproof, non-slip flooring and moisture-resistant lining, making the entire unit easy to clean, sanitize, and maintain.

• Built-In Security: The steel structure is highly secure, protecting the valuable internal plumbing and fixtures from vandalism and theft in remote or unsupervised locations.

• Portability: Your facilities can be moved effortlessly. If a construction site finishes or an event relocates, the entire ablution block moves with you.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) for Container Ablution Blocks

1. How much does a container ablution block cost?

Prices vary based on size and fittings:

• A basic 20ft Ablution Block starts at approximately Kshs 450,000.

• A large, multi-cubicle 40ft Ablution Block with showers can reach up to Kshs 1,200,000.

  The final cost depends on the number of fixtures and the quality of internal tiles/fittings.

2. How do I connect the plumbing and waste system?

The unit arrives with clearly marked pipes for clean water inlet and waste outlet. You simply connect these pipes to your external sources, such as a mains water supply, or a local septic tank, sewer, or bio-digester.

3. What is the standard configuration of a 20ft ablution block?

A typical 20ft unit is divided into two separate sections (Male/Female) and usually contains 3 private toilet cubicles and 2 sinks per section, or a combination of toilets, urinals, and sinks.

4. Is the floor slippery?

No. We install non-slip, waterproof flooring specifically designed for wet areas to minimize the risk of accidents and ensure easy cleaning.13

5. How fast can the unit be ready?

Fabrication for a standard unit takes approximately 2-3 weeks. The unit is delivered fully built, ready for connection.14

6. Do you include water storage tanks?

Water storage tanks and grey water collection tanks are optional add-ons.15 We can integrate them within the container structure or mount them externally, connecting them directly to the internal plumbing.

7. Are ablution blocks insulated?

Yes. Although not strictly necessary for temperature control in a washroom, we insulate the roof and often the walls to prevent condensation (sweating), which improves hygiene and prevents premature deterioration of the unit.

8. What kind of foundation is required?

Only a level, stable surface is required. The unit can sit on compacted ground, concrete blocks, or a simple gravel base. No complex concrete slab is necessary.

9. Can I customize the block to include showers?

Yes. Showers are a popular request for sites like gyms, mining camps, and long-term accommodation units. We can partition the space to include separate shower cubicles with hot water system preparation.

10. Do I need a permit for an ablution block?

While the structure itself is easily movable, sanitation facilities must comply with public health and drainage regulations. You should consult your local County Government and a licensed plumber to ensure the waste disposal connections meet local authority standards (CAP. 242).
