Duravit has unveiled its Wave faucet collection, combining contemporary aesthetics with advanced technology and long-term durability for modern bathroom spaces.

Designed with a young, expressive style, the collection features a slender cylindrical base transitioning into a rounded spout, creating a balance between fluid curves and sharp detailing. The ergonomically designed upward handle ensures precise and comfortable control.

The range is available in multiple finishes, including chrome, black matt, brushed stainless steel, brushed bronze and polished gold. Scratch-resistant PVD coatings enhance durability while enabling customised design applications.

Technologically, the faucets are equipped with ceramic cartridges and Duravit’s AirPlus system, which mixes air into the water stream to deliver a soft, full flow. EasyClean functionality simplifies maintenance by allowing quick removal of limescale without harsh cleaning agents.

The Wave series integrates with Duravit’s broader bathroom portfolio, including showers, accessories and flush systems, ensuring design consistency across spaces. It also incorporates water- and energy-efficient features to support sustainable usage.

Duravit offers a five-year warranty on faucets and showers, along with a 15-year spare parts availability commitment, reinforcing product reliability and lifecycle support.
