The guide to public toilets for camping sites
Do campsites really need public toilets?
The regulations for campsites are different and vary from area to area. However, there are some general principles that apply throughout the country, such as those relating to hygiene or safety requirements.
Certainly, organised campsites must have adequate sanitary facilities to ensure the hygiene and health of campers, the number of which varies according to the accommodation capacity of the campsite.
At SANO2, we are ready to provide you with outdoor and indoor toilets, available in both traditional and self-cleaning configurations, with or without grid connections, and can be fitted in multiple or single blocks.

How many public toilets should I have on my campsite? How big should they to be?
The installation of sanitary facilities on campsites must comply with several types of regulations: urban planning and building regulations, sanitary regulations, accessibility and safety regulations. With regards to the number of toilets on campsites, there are minimum ratios between the number of guests and the facilities available. As an indication:
- One toilet for every 20 people
- One shower for every 25 people
- One wash basin for every 10/15
people - One toilet for disabled users for every 100 people.
Toilet sizes also vary according to local regulations, but you can use these general guidelines as a trace:
Toilet dimensions for non-disabled people
The minimum recommended public toilets dimensions are approximately 1.00 x 1.20 metres, with a door that closes from the inside. Showers should also be installed in rooms of at least 1.00 x 1.20 metres and should be equipped with a changing room. SANO2’s Precast Public Toilets are fully customisable: we offer a range of prefabricated structures in which you can fit different types of public toilets and choose the interior finishes and equipments.
Toilet dimensions for Disabled users
The minimum size requirements for disabled toilets on campsites provide adequate space to manoeuvre a wheelchair or use sanitary equipment. In England, building regulations to ensure that people are able to access and use buildings and their facilities are set out in the Equality Act 2010 and Building Regulations 2010 (Document Part M).
SANO2 offers you accessible, hygienic, safe and equipped solutions: in each of our Public Toilets we guarantee comfort for all people with reduced mobility.
However, given the variety of regulations, we invite you to consult the specific regulations of the region where your campsite is located to check the conformity of your project. We are ready to provide all kinds of services and offer advice in all circumstances.
