Key Features and Benefits

Mixer Taps

Mixer taps are designed with two inlets for hot and cold water, merging into a single spout. They provide precise control over water temperature, enhancing comfort and efficiency. Their sleek, minimalist design complements modern bathrooms.

Monobloc Taps

Monobloc taps are mounted on a single hole and can have one or two handles to control hot and cold water. These taps save space on your countertop or basin, making them ideal for compact bathrooms. Their streamlined installation offers a clean and contemporary look.

Pillar Taps

Pillar taps feature separate controls for hot and cold water and are installed in pairs. Perfect for vintage or traditional settings, they allow users to draw exclusively hot or cold water, simplifying temperature control and maintenance.

Wall-Mounted Taps

Wall-mounted taps are installed directly into the wall, providing a suspended water source above the sink or basin. These taps free up counter space, offering a modern, minimalist aesthetic that is especially beneficial in small areas.

Floor-Mounted Taps

Floor-mounted or freestanding taps are anchored directly to the floor and often paired with freestanding bathtubs. They offer flexible positioning around the tub and a luxurious, elegant look by hiding plumbing beneath the floor.

Bib Taps

Bib taps are traditional taps commonly used outdoors or in older homes, featuring a simple on-and-off spindle mechanism. They provide straightforward functionality, perfect for outdoor settings or rustic interiors where ease of use is important.

Materials and Quality

Our taps are crafted from premium materials such as stainless steel, brass, and chrome, ensuring durability and longevity. In addition to resisting corrosion and wear, these types of materials are also designed to be aesthetic and functional for a long time.

Usage and Maintenance

Mixer taps offer precise temperature control for cooking and cleaning while monobloc and wall-mounted taps enhance space and style. Furthermore, bib taps provide reliable and simple water access.

Regularly clean your fixtures with a soft cloth and mild detergent to prevent build-up. Inspect and tighten any loose fittings to avoid leaks. For limescale deposits, use a vinegar solution to dissolve them.
