Roman
Launches New Products into Orbit
Roman
has added two new products into its range of Orbital shower enclosures.
These new additions, which were launched in September, are; the Orbital
Hinged Door and the space-maximising Orbital Bi-Fold Door.
The
high quality Orbital Hinged Door features 8mm thick toughened glass and
is available in a range of size options; 760, 800, 900 & 1000mm width
fittings. However, when used with inline panels, the flexible hinged door
can be used to fit apertures up to 1700mm.
Alternatively, the Orbital Bi-Fold Door is suitable for when an inward
opening door is required to avoid projection into the bathroom - helping
to maximise space. This contemporary styled bi-fold door features 6mm
thick glass, solid brass chrome plated hinges and is available in a range
of width fittings; 760, 800, 900, 1000 &1200mm.
Both the hinged and the bi-fold door options are suitable for an alcove
situation, or alternatively can be used with side-panels to achieve an
eye-catching two or three sided enclosure. The enclosures feature new
chrome on brass ergonomic handles, along with the curved profiles that
are unique to the Roman Orbital collection.
The Orbital Hinged and Bi-Fold Doors stand at a height of 1900mm and are
reversible for left or right hand fitting. To complete the look there
is a choice of a silver or white frame finish.
As with all Roman shower enclosures the Orbital Bi-Fold and Hinged Doors
are covered by Roman's service backed 'Truelife' Lifetime guarantee.
Commenting on the new products, Roman's Design Manager, Chris Ward, says;
‘Since its launch to the market in 2004, the Orbital range has proved
to be one of our most popular collections. Currently the range consists
of; smooth action sliding doors and our space-saving quadrants, which
take up minimal wall space, yet bow out into the middle of the room to
create a massive showering area.
Due to the range's popularity Roman decided to launch new additions, which
likewise make good use of space. The key being flexibility, Roman wanted
products which were available in a range of size options, as well as an
inward opening door alternative that would allow for other bathroom furniture.
‘From this the Orbital Bi-Fold and Hinged Door were born. Attention
to detail, ease of installation and superb good looks meet to create the
next evolution of this successful range.’

Daryl
Showering Continues Successful Mira Showers Collaboration with Launch
of Indigo
Premium
showering products brand, Daryl Showering, is further strengthening its
collaborative portfolio with Mira Showers by launching the Indigo Quadrant
enclosure and Magna digital showering system - the second offering in
the brands' successful joint venture.
The
two brands joined forces earlier this year to create 'the best of the
best' in shower enclosures and water delivery, and are following their
triumphant first launch of the Cyan enclosure with the launch of the Indigo
combined with Mira's integrated Magna digital showering system.
Constructed in a quadrant shape to optimise corner shower space, the stylish
Indigo is also available with an extended enclosure and features a simple
yet elegantly curved glass door with top hung smooth gliding rollers.
True integration of the shower space is achieved by the fact that the
door rollers run along a profile within the tray. This brings benefits
including great water-tightness of the whole unit, a more robust structure
and a true minimalist style.
The Magna shower features the very latest in electronic water delivery,
including preset temperature and timer settings, a choice of flow rates
and a lockable control pad. The shower control is connected to the digital
mixer valve that can be sited up to three metres away.
The digital mixer comes in two varieties, with or without a built-in pump,
to suit all hot water systems. Without a pump, the mixer can take hot
water supplies from a high-pressure system via a combination boiler, thermal
store or mains pressure hot water supply. The pumped version boosts the
supply where only a low gravity head is available.
Available with a slider rail or fixed showerhead, the Mira Magna's contemporary
styling complements that of the Indigo Quadrant and both products together
offer ease of installation, including frame adjustments.
Mike Wilson, marketing development manager for Daryl Showering, explained:
‘The success of Daryl Showering and Mira Showers' Cyan launch showed
us that this combination of sophisticated water delivery technology with
superior, contemporary styling is offering the consumer what they want
at a price they are prepared to pay. By extending the offer to the Indigo
Quadrant enclosure we are continuing to meet the customer's demand for
the best of the best at a competitive price point.’
He continued: ‘We are pleased to be a part of this collaboration
between two of the market's strongest, most progressive brands, and believe
that the Indigo Quadrant integrated with the Mira Magna once again demonstrates
Daryl's commitment to quality and Mira's outstanding technological developments.’
The Indigo Quadrant with Mira Magna will now be available through Kohler
Daryl and promoted through its Daryl Showering brochure and website.

‘Tapping
into the Market’ with the Waterside Collection
Shaws,
the Lancashire based fireclay ceramics manufacturer, has launched its
own branded range of kitchen taps.
Created to complement the traditionally styled Classic and Original ranges
of sinks, each tap has been specifically designed to enhance the Shaws
offering to the trade. ‘Having frequently been asked which tap do
Shaws recommend to go with which sink, we decided to introduce our own
limited range’ comments Emma Crofts, Sales Manager. ‘We are
responding to the demands from the retail trade who want to offer the
complete Shaws package. The new bespoke tap range is the perfect solution
to sit with our unique handcrafted sinks.’
As with the sinks, the taps all have local Lancashire names. Helmshore
(pictured), a Swan necked design with ceramic Shaws branded levers comes
in both bridge and monobloc styles and available in Chrome finish only.
Turton, a classically fashioned mixer tap with crosshead controls also
comes in both monobloc and bridge designs and offered in Chrome, Antique
Bronze, Brushed Nickel and English Gold.
Whalley, a monobloc double lever tap with curved spout features Shaws
ceramic indices set into the head of each lever. This classic tap will
complement most kitchen designs and is available in all four finishes.
The last tap in the range is Summerseat, a traditional single lever Shaws
branded mixer tap. Summerseat has an angular shaped spout to give easy
reach into either a single or double bowl sink. Available in Chrome only.
The entire Shaws range of kitchen mixer taps are manufactured with quarter
turn ceramic valves and comes with a Shaws 5 year guarantee. Tel: 01254

The
Onyx range of taps from Mayfair has
the ability to cope with a wide range of water pressures, while maintaining
a high flow rate.
With
many homes in the UK still suffering from poor pressure, the choice of
suitable taps can be limited. The Onyx range has the ability to cater
for pressures down to 0.2bar, making them a stylish option for dwellings
with low pressure problems.
However, the Onyx will also handle a maximum pressure of 6bar, making
it suitable to just about every likely application in the UK.
While the ability to handle this wide range in pressures is an important
factor, the Onyx has also been designed to give impressive flow rates
at whatever the pressure might be.
For example, at 0.2bar the mono basin mixer can deliver 4.2 litres/min.
of cold water, or 6.6 litres/min. of mixed. These figures jump to 18.8
and 28.2 litres/min. for cold and mixed respectively at a pressure of
4bar.
Within the collection are two bath shower mixers - one for single-hole
applications, the other for twin hole.
Shower heads on both of these are the 'microphone' style, making them
particularly suitable for modern style bathrooms.
Indeed, the entire range has been designed with contemporary styling,
from the flared stem lever to the cylindrical body and straight post spouts.
Apart from the bath shower mixers, the range also includes a mono basin
mixer, single- and two-hole bath fillers, and a mono bidet mixer.
The twin-hole bath filler and bath shower mixer has a design which features
a cylindrical horizontal bar standing on two sturdy chrome plated cylindrical
posts, giving it plenty of clearance from the bath to allow for easy cleaning.
Mayfair manufactures its own brassware in bespoke plants in Thailand and
China. This allows the company the control selling prices by eliminating
the 'middle man', and give more accurate and trustworthy delivery dates.
A high level of customer service is also another important part of the
Mayfair 'package'.

Conserve
Water With the BLANCOFILTRA Fresh Tap
The
BLANCOFILTRA Fresh tap offers kitchen
retailers and designers an opportunity to incorporate water saving within
the overall kitchen design, thanks to the flow-restrictor feature.
The tap is already popular because of its integrated filter unit for fresh
drinking water, which negates the need to buy expensive bottled water.
But it is also fitted with an easily-adjustable screw to restrict water
flow; this means that even if the tap is left running, during food preparation
for instance, the amount of water used is reduced.
The adjustment is easily made by the householder, before or after the
tap is fitted.
The BLANCOFILTRA Fresh tap retails at around £299 and is available
in chrome or brushed steel. It is one of several taps in the BLANCO range
which incorporate this flow-restrictor feature.

JADO
Unveils Next Generation Bathroom Products
JADO,
a provider of exclusive and luxurious designer bath and kitchen products,
has unveiled its new range of bathroom fittings and accessories including
a new ‘smart’ collection. Designed by world-renowned architect
Jean Nouvel, the ‘smart’ collection uses a digital sensor system
for water and temperature control. This is the first time Jean Nouvel,
famous for buildings including the Agbar Office Tower in Barcelona, the
Fondation Cartier and Musée de Quai Branly in Paris, has explored
new design frontiers in the bathroom solutions environment.
The
distinctive range reflects JADO's vision to evolve bathrooms to the next
level and to set a precedent for the future of bathrooms. JADO works with
talented designers from all over the world, each injecting fresh thinking
and originality into its range. From the Scandinavian minimalism of Friis
& Moltke to the avant-garde style of Jean Nouvel, each designer's
unique personality contributes something innovative to the brand.
The company says that the latest JADO collection designed by Jean Nouvel
is one-of-a-kind and incomparable to any other bathroom collection on
the market today. ‘This new product line - with its bold organic
look and sensor technology - provides a glimpse into the future of the
bathroom. It encompasses digital technology, programming options to regulate
temperature and water flow, as well as a pop-up hand-spray for the shower.
JADO's Jean Nouvel collection embodies bathroom chic and at the same time
offers products that are easy to use, install, maintain and clean.’
The centre-piece of the collection is a highly resistant chrome-brass
plated tap with a design shape intended to replicate the natural effects
of water erosion on stones and rocks. ‘High-tech digital sensory
technology offers a comfort level and ease of use unlike any other tap’.
It is completely battery driven so that there are no mechanical handles
or levers. Instead, there are four easy-to-use flat buttons, with fast
response time which provide on/off functionality and regulate the water
temperature and flow. Batteries can easily be changed and are located
in a sealed, water-proof control box that is easily accessible.
The collection includes a showering system and bath fitting with an integrated
hand-held spray that comes into use the second it is picked up out of
the socket. The range also features a full line of accessories including
a unique modular towel rack system, using detachable bars, which can be
fitted to suit individual space and tastes. In addition, the collection
comprises a mirror, storage drawer, lotion dispenser, soap dish, tumbler,
a modular towel rack system and hooks, as well as toilet accessory sets
and add-ons.
‘When we approached Jean Nouvel for this project, our brief included
positive interaction between water and the user all wrapped in beautiful,
quality materials," said John Rietveldt, President Ideal Standard,
Europe, Middle East and Africa. "Following that, we gave him virtually
'carte blanche' in order to fully benefit from his unleashed creativity
and the experimental design that he is known for. He has developed a collection
that, we believe, is very exciting and futuristic; applying smart design
for distinctive beauty. The collection is quintessentially JADO, combining
cutting-edge design with innovative technology to create a range that
is original, exclusive and of high quality.
‘It was fascinating to experiment in order to create an intuitive
interaction between water and human touch,’ said Jean Nouvel. ‘That
is why I decided to work with a digital sensory system using a tactile
interface and pictograms that are universally understood. Electronics
with integrated micro-captors inside the fixtures detect human touch and
enable ergonomic yet instinctive control of water. The hydro-dynamic system
allows for a very natural flow of water, resembling a waterfall's transparency.’
The new JADO Jean Nouvel collection can be integrated with other JADO
collections or existing bathrooms offering users the possibility to create
a unique and individual style. The JADO brand encompasses the following
collections:
• GLANCE - designed by ArteFakt. Simplicity, sensuality and consistency.
• GLANCE WELCOME - (ArteFakt) Intelligent design for restricted spaces.
• CUBIC - designed by Friis & Moltke. A display of cubism in
its purest form.
• GEOMETRY - designed by Christian Bjørn and Ad Van Berlo.
International class.
• IQ - designed by Matteo Thun. An intelligent, modern and minimalist
design.
• NEW HAVEN - A modern classic fit for contemporary architecture.
• LIGHTHOUSE - Inspired by the Cape Hatteras lighthouse in North
Carolina.
• ORIENTAL - Radiating warmth and charm.
• PERLRAND CRISTAL - With crystal handles made exclusively by Swarovski.
• RETRO - Evoking memories of 'art nouveau': A timeless nostalgia
in 1920s style.
• JADO's Coordinated Design also offers matching fittings, accessories,
wash basins, shower systems, furniture and kitchen taps.
For more than 110 years, JADO's product and brand philosophy has been
based on the three principles of innovation, design and quality. True
to its motto, ‘freedom of expression’, the JADO collection does
not impose one version of style. It encourages buyers to express their
personal interpretation of beauty and goes from classic to modern, covering
a wide range of tastes.
JADO taps and showering systems are produced at Ideal Standard's manufacturing
facilities in Wittlich, Germany. This ensures constant quality of the
highest standards. Modern techniques are combined with traditional skills
that are employed when hand-finished individuality is called for, e.g.,
to achieve an ‘antique’ look. JADO products also use a surface
treatment, called Ultra|Finish. This finish is more scratch-resistant,
colour-fast, ultra hardwearing and has greater corrosion resistance. The
molecular fusion of metal and gas ions makes it extremely hard and gives
it its extra-long service life.

competitively priced way to achieve an all-over showering sensation that
is easy to install.

comfort within the reach of any pocket.

Bristan's new dual control ceiling fed shower is specially designed to ease the workload of installers, with a sleek central column that hides all pipework, thus negating the need to channel out walls - saving time, effort and money.

with contrasting chrome plated controls, handset and holder - is especially
suitable for gravity fed systems, which have the water supply in the roof,
but is equally suited to all plumbing systems.
Thermostatic controls, which are pre-set to 42°c, offer safety as
well as showering comfort, while the simple dual-control operation makes
it easy to use. The dual control ceiling fed shower is suited to water
pressures ranging between 0.1 bar and 8.0 bar, and a 700mm extension kit
is also available for properties with especially high ceilings.

Eco
Taps Now Available from Pegler
As
the campaign to save water gathers pace in the UK, Doncaster based Pegler
has responded by introducing a range of taps that make a practical contribution
to saving water in the bathroom. Eco Taps form part of the Pegler
Performa range and are designed to deliver an environmentally friendly
water saving solution for domestic and commercial applications.
With ten varieties of Eco Tap in the Performa range, there is a design
to suit most environments. Businesses where water saving is a priority
will reap the most benefit from the Press Tap range, but Pegler has taken
care to design several taps predominately for domesic use. The domestic
environment is the one that feels the impact of water shortages first,
so installing Pegler Eco Taps provides the public with a positive way
to reduce their water usage.
Every tap in the range is fitted with a flow regulator to reduce water
wastage to a maximum of 4 litres per minute, which leads to savings in
the long term and significant reductions in water wasting in the shorter
term. For specifiers who need a water saving solution, the Eco Tap is
a suitable product and interest has already been expressed by the social
housing sector in particular, but Eco Taps could find a home in a variety
of environments, including schools, offices, homes and hospitals.
As Thames and Severn Trent water continue to battle with leaks in the
system, Eco Taps are one method of cutting the amount of water wasted
every day and allow everyone to get involved in saving one of our most
valuable and little respected resources.
Pegler Product Manager Mike Dickinson said, ‘In the light of recent
water shortages and hosepipe bans throughout the UK this year, we all
need to look at water saving measures more closely. While water companies
fixing leaks will help, we can all play our part in saving water and Pegler
has responded with a range of Eco Taps.’
As increasing numbers of Eco Taps are installed, Pegler and its customers
will be making a significant contribution towards saving water in the
years ahead. The new taps are available in many popular styles, and Pegler
also offers a comprehensive range of self closing taps and shower controls.
Full details of the new Performa range of Pegler Eco Taps can be found
by visiting http://www.pegler.co.uk
or by calling 0870 1200 284 and asking for further details.
