Fixtures Care Guide

• We use Stainless Steel Grade 304 for our indoor range and Stainless Steel Grade 316 for our outdoor range. They are both extremely versatile types of stainless steel. It is the chromium found in stainless steel that gives it its oxidation, corrosion and durability resistance, making it one of the more hard-wearing metals to choose from. Stainless Steel Grade 316 has further corrosion resistance to seawater and de-icing salts, making it more suitable for outdoor environments.


• Grade 304 = 18/8, Grade 316 = 18/10


• Stainless Steel Construction - The "grade" of stainless steel refers to its quality, durability and temperature resistance. The numbers (18/8, 18/10, etc.) are the composition of the stainless steel and refer to the amount of chromium/nickel in the product. eg. 18/8 stainless steel consists of 18% chromium and 8% nickel.

• We use DR solid brass for the majority of our residential tapware range. DR brass is characterised by its exceptional resistance to dezincification and corrosion.

• PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) ABI Heat Shield – an industrial-grade
molecular-based colouring system which provides a harder, more corrosion resistant finish whilst remaining environmentally friendly.

• AEA (Advanced Electroplating Application) - a process that uses electrical current to plate one metal upon another metallic surface to create a long-lasting and durable finish.


• PSLT (PrimeShield Lacquer Technology) - a high impact and durable lacquer finish that is easy to maintain.
