Red dot 2012: Creativity once again wins the day for GROHE

GROHE Allure Faucet

GROHE products regularly garner international design awards on the strength of their distinct language of form, love of detail and state-of-the art technologies. Now the global brand has once again convinced the judges of one the world’s most renowned awards. No fewer than five of its products have garnered the coveted “red dot award: product design 2012” - four lines of faucets and a handshower exhibiting a perfect blend of innovation, functionality, ergonomics, ecology and longevity.

“Given the highly demanding judging criteria at this award, we are all the more pleased that our products have been so well received by the judges,” says Paul Flowers, Senior Vice President Design at Grohe AG. “In developing our faucets and showers we work to the highest standards to achieve just the right balance of design, quality, sustainability and technology. This kind of acknowledgement by international design experts is very important for us and we certainly take great pride in this award!”

New Air Injection Showerhead Technology

Danze Air Injection Showerhead

Danze, Inc. has announced the addition of a unique showerhead technology that ensures a high-performing shower even at lower flow rates. The new showerhead configuration injects air directly into the showerhead "engine" providing an improved shower experience.

This mixing of water and air provides three significant benefits to the user:

  • Increases water velocity and shower spray intensity
  • Softens the feel of the shower spray by trapping air bubbles in the water stream
  • Maintain water temperature compared to "misting" showerheads, which tend to lose their warmth

This air injection showerhead technology is being introduced on two of Danze’s newest showerheads – the Danze 200 (pictured left) and Danze 250 (pictured right). These showerheads are available in different versions to accommodate varying flow rates (1.5 gallons per minute, 1.75 gpm, 2.0 gpm and 2.5 gpm).
