Surface to pair: GROHE SPA Colours

While one key appeal of GROHE’s interactive SPA Colours collection is its invitation to choose tones and finishes that precisely express their users’ personality, another is its taps’ durability and functionality. In kitchens and bathrooms, where fittings are in constant use and vulnerable to wear and tear, it’s essential that taps are hardwearing, their longevity assured.

GROHE is world-renowned for peerless functionality and for its pioneering technology and engineering as much as for its aesthetically pleasing designs with elegantly streamlined forms. The company is on a constant quest to offer perfection on all fronts, so it’s hardly surprising that it has developed an unrivalled method of preserving the surfaces of its sleek taps in peak condition for perpetuity.

The secret of GROHE’s success in this regard lies in its application of a process called physical vapour deposition (PVD). Not only does GROHE coat its taps with its sophisticated palette of SPA Colours but PVD provides them with a highly protective surface. This ensures that they are three times harder and 10 times more scratch-resistant than if the taps hadn’t been subjected before to this highly specialist process.

PVD technology guarantees that the taps’ colours and finishes remain immaculate and untarnished, that they retain their original appearance and integrity. It ensures that surfaces continue to sparkle and glisten if they are polished and lustrous and don’t lose their subtle, even sheen if they have a comparatively matte, brushed finish. As such, GROHE’s SPA Colours collection, whose hues range from glistening gold to a softer gunmetal grey, benefits immensely from this protective layer. And, of course, the longer bathroom fittings are kept looking good, the longer they are cherished.

GROHE marries functionality and high style in another key respect. Its washbasins and baths have been built so that taps, showers and sanitary systems match each other exactly and complement each other visually to form a seamless, perfectly functioning and aesthetically cohesive whole. GROHE’s ability to dovetail its many components harmoniously removes the risks involved in a trial-and-error approach to coordinating bathroom fittings. It also makes the process of deciding on which elements to choose convenient and painless.

This considered approach is quintessentially GROHE — quite simply the result of the combined, concerted efforts of its expert technology and in-house design teams to prolong its products’ lifespan and our enjoyment of them.
