Award-winning kitchen and bathroom brand Abode made a strong impression at Kbb Birmingham 2026, showcasing its new boiling water tap collection, innovative product designs, and coordinated finishes across trend-focused kitchen and bathroom spaces.
Bathroom display
Abode opened its stand with a dedicated bathroom zone, showcasing the FOCUS 60 collection, including the CAVA and IOX basins, new Gunmetal brassware, UNO showering solutions, mirrors, and accessories. Supported by distribution partner PJH, the display included a colourful vanity unit and freestanding bath with Fibo UK panels, demonstrating how the brand’s bathroom products combine style and functionality.
Four trend-focused kitchen environments
Abode’s Stand P80 was buzzing with UK visitors exploring the latest kitchen innovations. The display featured four style-led areas – Traditional, Scandi/Japandi, Contemporary, and Personalised – each designed to show how products from a single brand can be combined seamlessly across kitchens of any size or style.
Curated by Abode, the stand included exclusive product demonstrations, insights into the Accumulate rewards programme, and practical examples of how customers can create coordinated solutions for kitchens and bathrooms.
Highlighting next-generation boiling water taps
Leanne Stansfield, digital & marketing director at Abode, explained: “Our stand was built around four key style trends, with different product pairings illustrating how complete kitchen and bathroom solutions can be achieved with Abode. Visitors also experienced the relaunch of our boiling water tap collection, featuring the new PB3X boiler and five new tap designs: Persona, Arkitect, Oxbury, Organico, and Scandi-X.”
Stansfield noted that the Persona Boiling Water Tap has been praised for its customisable design, with a wide choice of finishes and interchangeable handle packs. The compact PB3X boiler was particularly well-received, allowing installation alongside a traditional Belfast sink while still leaving storage space in a standard 60mm base unit.
Traditional kitchen display
The Traditional zone showcased the Oxbury boiling water tap in Antique Brass, alongside Oxbury mixer taps in Dark Bronze and Polished Nickel finishes. Paired with Abode’s ceramic sinks – including the signature Belfast Sink and Sandon models – the display demonstrated how traditional British style can blend with modern functionality.
Personalised kitchen display
In the Personalised area, visitors explored the Persona boiling water tap and Ornate mixer tap ranges, featuring fluted dual-lever handles. These were paired with Abode’s reversible Optima Belfast sink in Taupe Grey, offering a fluted surface on one side and a smooth finish on the other. Accessories, matching wastes, and overflows completed the look, showing how vertical grooves and complementary finishes can tie a kitchen together.
Contemporary kitchen display
The Contemporary space introduced the Arkitect boiling & filtered water tap, with bold sculptural form and a two-stage safety handle. Displayed in the new Gunmetal finish with a KOTO PVD Black sink, the setup was complemented by the LINARO granite sink collection in Pure Black, Matt White, and Grey. The area also previewed the Arkitect Flex Pro Spray in Matt Black, a professional-style pull-around tap with boiling and filtered water capabilities.
Scandi/Japandi kitchen display
The Scandi/Japandi area celebrated Nordic warmth and Japanese minimalism, featuring the Organico boiling water tap with Beechwood handles and optional filtered cold water. Abode’s award-winning Scandi-X tap was also on display, highlighting solid metal levers and advanced boiler technology alongside the Synchronist sink collection and accessories.
