With all the style and aplomb expected from the bathroom and kitchen innovators 

For the first time, Hansgrohe is offering a stunning range in a black finish that ends the race completely in South Africa. The limited edition Hansgrohe Black Range of mixers and showers is made inhouse in Germany by the experts who have been delivering world-class technology and high-end quality, consistently, for years. Originally launched under the AXOR FinishPlus range internationally in 2012, the range has a reputation for long lasting beauty that precedes it.  This is a welcome addition to the local market!

The advantages

This exclusive range is a step ahead of the rest because of the physical vapour deposition (PVD) method used to finish each product. PVD coatings are harder and more corrosion resistant than other finishing methods, with higher temperature resistance and good impact strength. This means less scratches, long-lasting surface shine and detergent resistance, combined with technology that ensures very little water wastage.

Another impressive quality of the PVD coating is how environmentally-friendly the method is compared to galvanized special finishes. You are not only getting the best in beauty, strength and resistance - you’re contributing to our environment too!

Care and attention

Each product is brushed by hand and then washed and sterilized to remove dirt and grease before entering the PVD chamber. The care and attention that Hansgrohe puts into each product’s finish indicates a level of commitment that sets the company apart.

The range comes in a style which is lean and cylindrical, introducing an elegant repose to kitchens and bathrooms.

Black finish

The colour palette, which has been offered in Hansgrohe but is new to the South African market as a limited edition, adds a debonair touch that is reminiscent of a Bond film. With Connery of course.

Who knew a tap could look so sexy?

Hansgrohe did.
