Bathrooms are typically designed to last 15 to 20 years, making it essential to consider sustainability from the outset. Today’s bathroom design goes beyond mere aesthetics; it requires a thoughtful approach that combines durability, accessibility, and efficiency. In the shower area, this means finding smart, resource-conscious solutions that blend comfort with environmental responsibility. Whether you’re building new or remodelling, selecting the right products ensures your bathroom remains functional and eco-friendly for years to come.
Innovative shower tray design
One standout innovation is the floor-level, self-supporting Sustano shower tray made from DuroCast® Nature, a recyclable mineral composite. At just 30 mm (1.2 inches) tall, its ultra-low profile allows for flush installation, even in homes with low floor heights. Its edge-free design and range of sizes make it ideal for both small and large bathrooms, while six colour options offer endless possibilities for personal style. Beyond aesthetics, DuroCast® Nature is lightweight, easy to install, durable, UV-resistant, and slip-resistant, qualities that make it a practical, long-lasting choice, especially for remodels.
Water and energy efficiency
Water and energy savings are key elements of sustainable bathroom design. Duravit’s MinusFlow technology can reduce water use by up to 40% with overhead showers and 60% with hand showers, lowering utility bills without compromising comfort. Complementing this, modern thermostatic faucets maintain a consistent water temperature while preventing energy waste through features like HeatLock, which locks temperature settings at 38°C (100°F) to protect users and conserve energy. These integrated solutions not only promote sustainability but also add convenience and safety to the bathroom.
Investing in sustainable living
Choosing sustainable shower products means investing in a bathroom that supports your lifestyle while respecting the planet. With intelligent design and advanced technology, today’s shower solutions offer lasting value for customers and set a new standard for responsible living.
