NEW PRODUCTS
INDUSTRIE OF
COLOUR
Bold statement
pieces will be one of the
biggest upcoming trends
for tapware in 2016, allowing
proud individualists to express
their unique sense of style. Dorf’s
Industrie Basin Mixer and Tower
Basin Mixer each feature twin tap
handles in a choice of red, black or
white. Quality European internals,
including ¼ turn ceramic discs,
concealed aerators and Ultraflex
PEX hoses for superior durability
and flexibility, combine with
the smart design to deliver the
signature craftsmanship that Dorf
is renowned for.
TOOBI TAPWARE
The Toobi, from Kohler, is an
elegant take on the archetypal
plumbing form – the pipe – which
is referenced in both the body
of the tap and the spout. The
result is a tumbling, free flow of
water in all its natural beauty,
but with a final, pop-art twist – a
hit of colour as the water leaves
the spout in the form of a small,
interchangeable insert fitted
inside the spout in a choice of
spring green, phantom black or
ice white. The Toobi collection
comprises a range of 5 star WELS
rated basin and tall basin mixers,
bath and shower mixers.
TMV FLUSH OUT
Enware’s Australian made
Aquablend 1500 Thermostatic
Mixing Valve (TMV) which is
suitable for health and general
applications now comes with
a Thermal Flush feature. The
Thermal Flush feature allows
for a controlled hot water
flush to pass through the
TMV for decontamination and
maintenance functions. As you
can appreciate, this is a major
step forward in legionella control
in plumbing systems.
MINIMALIST APPROACH
Raymor’s new collection of
contemporary bathroom products
has specifically been designed
to accommodate more compact
bathing spaces, such as those
in apartments and units. Making
a significant contribution to its
compact bathroom range is the
Byron Wall Faced toilet suite.
Combined with a concealed
cistern and the clean, understated
lines of the toilet (with soft
close seat) will add to the visual
perception of space within any
bathroom. The Byron has a four
star WELS rating with an average
flush of 3.5 litres.
REMOTE INSPECTION
The Olympus Series C videoscope
is designed to provide quick and
easy inspections in difficult-to-
reach areas. The advanced image
processors can operate in low
light levels and resolve the finest
detail such as corrosion, burrs
and small defects or cracks.
Ergonomically designed to fit in
the palm of either the right or left
hand and weighing less than a
kilogram, the portability, durable
construction and ease-of-use
means the Series
C can be used
for remote
inspections
for the full
120 minute
battery life.
THE VERSATILE WRENCH
Combining the versatility of a
traditional adjustable wrench with
the convenience and speed of a
ratcheting wrench, Crescent’s
latest wrench allows users to
tighten or loosen the fastener
without removing or repositioning
the wrench. And when you find
yourself in need of a traditional
wrench, simply flick the switch
from on to off to allow
for conventional usage.
Compatible on any 4
or 6 point fastener up
to 15/16”, the pivoting
jaw allows users to fully
tighten the wrench onto the
fastener, actively reducing
the likelihood of it slipping
off.
