Whether it’s a new build or a remodel, carefully designed, resource-efficient shower solutions will prepare your bathroom for the future, combining sustainability with lasting comfort.
We can expect a bathroom to last 15 to 20 years on average, so it’s important to keep the future in mind when planning today. For expert guidance, this means looking at sustainable solutions as a whole — from planning an accessible design and using long-lasting materials to overall efficiency in everyday use. Within the shower area, in particular, you can find a variety of different ways to combine functionality with environmental responsibility.
Sustainability starts with planning and smart product choices
An accessible, floor-level shower area is comfortable, convenient, and allows independent use even with physical limitations. The self-supporting Sustano shower tray, with its extremely low overall height of only 1.2 inches (30 mm), enables flush-mounted installation even in remodel projects with low floor heights. In addition to the low-profile, edge-free design for installation flush with the floor, the shower tray range comes in a variety of sizes for small and large bathrooms alike.
Sustano also has an attractive entry-level price and comes in six colour options for creative, individual bathroom design; it is especially suitable for remodel projects. DuroCast® Nature, a recyclable mineral composite material, offers a range of excellent features: it is lightweight and easy to handle and cut during installation, whilst being durable, easy to clean, pleasant to the touch, UVresistant, and slip-resistant on matte finishes.
Taps and showers that save water and energy
Whether designing a new bathroom or updating an existing one, innovative water-saving solutions are the preferred choice. They contribute to sustainable water use in the bathroom without compromising comfort. They also help lower your water and energy bills. Duravit’s MinusFlow feature can reduce water use by up to 40% with the overhead shower and up to 60% with the hand shower.
Modern thermostatic taps actively help reduce energy consumption by keeping the water at a constant temperature. The integrated HeatLock function, with a safety lock at 100°F (38°C), helps prevent energy waste and reliably protects against scalding.
Available in a variety of designs and finishes, Duravit’s shower systems feature a thermostat that is seamlessly integrated into the shower tap. They are also available with the MinusFlow feature, providing a resource-efficient, all-in-one solution that is easy to install — an appealing choice for bathroom remodels.
