splash and drip control.
drainage and debris protection.
Does the urinal screen have 3D texture and a clear drip-catching zone that pulls liquid towards the drain, rather than back towards shoes and floors?
drainage and debris protection.

example specification for a urinal screen standard.
urinal screen specifications.
When you write tenders or internal standards, use simple wording that makes your urinal screen expectations clear. For example: (see below).
“The supplier shall provide a urinal screen system designed for a minimum 30 day use in typical male washrooms. Each urinal screen must fit the urinal type in each location, reduce splash and drips into the user zone and onto the floor, include a defined drip-catching area that directs liquid into the drain, remain stable after flushing, allow rapid drainage, limit debris entering the pipework and support a planned 30 day change-out schedule.”
