Nicholls & Clarke Group
Independent living, inclusive design
N&C Phlexicare are pioneering, British manufacturers and distributors
of showering, daily living, access, wall & floor and kitchen solutions
within the healthcare construction market. We design, manufacture and
distribute a full range of inclusive solutions with users, carers and
installers in mind.
Our products are inspirational by design, functional by nature and
produced using high quality materials. Our passion is to enable
freedom and independence for users with different levels of abilities,
within commercial or domestic environments.
N&C Phlexicare invented many of the products taken for granted today,
such as the raised height W.C pan, low entry shower tray and half
height shower doors. Our commitment to research and development
has led to the creation of many unique products which are specified
and used throughout the U.K and exported worldwide.
One of Phlexicare’s key core values is ‘attractive, inclusive design’
claimed by many but achieved by few. To that end, we work very
closely with charities and organisations such as ‘Disability Rights U.K’,
‘The Centre for the Accessible Environment’, Occupational Therapists
and disabled users to ensure that our products achieve solutions for
all, users and the people that care for them.

The high level of engagement has led to various
inventions and innovations over time that have
naturally developed through knowledge and
experience. N&C Phlexicare was the first
company to introduce rise and fall units for
kitchens and bathrooms, enabling users with
different levels of abilities to lead a more
comfortable life.

The first raised height toilet within the industry
was another superb invention. Until this point a
wheelchair user had to lift themselves up, often
purely with the strength in their arms or with the
help of a carer, to transfer from a toilet pan back
to a wheelchair. The development of a toilet pan

made this transfer far easier and in many cases
allows the user to retain dignity as they no
longer require assistance.

With the growing demand for products to be sourced from more eco-friendly production, a high volume of carbon dioxide
emissions have been considerably reduced, as a result of the new procedures in place to effectively tackle climate change
and the negative effects on the environment, continually advocating the prudent use of natural resources. These processes
have lead to the accreditation of ISO 14001, the international standard for environmental management systems (EMS). This
achievement ensures that our customers are benefiting by proving the products are sourced from an ISO 14001 company.
“Through controlling our CO2 emissions, our customers benefit by sourcing their products from a responsible manufacturer.
We have recognised the importance of the environment on future generations and proactively work towards reducing the
environmental impact within our manufacturing processes.
Stephen Forbes, Deputy Chairman, Nicholls & Clarke.
