Bassino from Kaldewei guarantees relaxation and deceleration in one’s own private SPA

Ahlen, March 2009. In these fast-moving times, one of the great challenges is how to process a large number of external stimuli in order to face up to the professional and private demands which are placed upon us every day. The permanent stimulus satiation creates stress and tension in many people. Bassino, Kaldewei’s new model of bath, creates a completely new feeling of relaxation and deceleration in one’s own private bathing oasis. Its unusual form and size enable the bather to float freely in the water as if in the open sea and to achieve rapid, deep physical and mental relaxation for a balanced attitude towards life. The luxurious dimensions - 200 x 100 centimetres - of the straight-lined, purist bath allow the bather to stretch out and be supported by the warm water. ...more

Piatto: New Kaldewei shower tray becomes the stage for an individual performance in the bathroom

Ahlen, March 2009. The new Kaldewei Piatto shower tray is the new focal point in the high class designer bathroom. The circular shower tray can be positioned as desired to shine like a fixed star in the centre of the room. When combined with the high quality shower curtain this avant-garde shower is promoted to a personal stage providing space for an individual performance. Circles create currents of energy – this is ideal to recharge one’s energy levels. The unique Piatto shower concept is characterised by a 150 centimetre circular shower tray made from Kaldewei steel enamel 3.5 millimetre whose total height of 6 centimetres and ingenious rim design give it the appearance of floating above the bathroom floor. ...more

High-quality bathing culture follows the trend towards black

Ahlen, March 2009. Fashion has always considered black to be something special. Black is a synonym for exclusivity, individuality and noblesse in equal measure. Black means elegance without risk and is timeless as the moods of fashion change. It is no wonder then that the colour black remains, with white, the fashionable colour per se according to a study carried out by the Colour Marketing Group (CMG). Based on this trend, Kaldewei, the European market leader for baths and shower trays in steel enamel 3.5 millimetre, has extended its Avantgarde and Ambiente ranges with free-standing panelling for baths in black. ...more

Kaldewei Relax Lounger for more comfort and convenience in the bathroom

Ahlen, March 2009. In these hectic and fast-moving times bathing is gaining in importance as a sanctuary into which one can withdraw to regenerate body and soul. The bath serves as an oasis of calm into which one can escape from one’s daily responsibilities for a few relaxing hours. The bather not only takes time for their preparations but also for the subsequent relaxation phase. Because this is particularly intense after the deep bathing disposition experienced while taking a bath. Kaldewei, Europe’s market leader for baths and shower trays in steel enamel 3.5 millimetre, has now introduced the new Relax Lounger which is ideal for recuperating after a bath and the best place to relax and gather one’s thought. The beige Kaldewei Relax Lounger can simply be laid on the steel enamel bath as a lounger and secured to the four corners of the bath. ...more

Illuminated jets for the Vivo Turbo whirl system

Ahlen, March 2009. Kaldewei, the European market leader for steel enamel baths and shower trays, emphasises its whirl competence by introducing a new, exclusive lighting concept for the Vivo Turbo whirl system. Vivo Turbo is the only system in the world to have specially developed nozzles which mean it can completely forego the otherwise usual piping and pump. This system is now also available with illuminated jets, thanks to the use of modern LED technology, which create an atmospheric setting for the whirl bath and support the positive influence of light on body and soul. The illuminated Vivo Turbo jets bathe the water in the bath and the surrounding room in an positive atmosphere. This emotional lighting generates an even more intense experience in the whirl bath, because the interaction of water, warmth and light produces a long-lasting deep relaxation. The special design of the whirl jets produces an extraordinary, interesting pattern of light in the bathtub which creates an atmospheric visual highlight in the bathroom. ...more

Floor-level bathroom design with spacious XXL showers for unlimited freedom of movement

Ahlen, March 2009. The timeless-elegant design contours of the floor-level XXL shower trays create visual highlights in spacious bathrooms and harmonise perfectly with modern bathing oases. Kaldewei is extending its product range by thirteen new models in XXL sizes between 130 x 90 and 180 x 100 centimetres. Floor-level showers are the more durable and attractive solution compared to fully tiled shower areas thanks to their innovative installation systems, wide range of colours, and use-friendly optional extras such as the easy-clean finish or the anti-slip enamel. Showers in XXL sizes are not only suitable for particularly spacious bathrooms, however. They integrate harmoniously into the surrounding room making even small bathrooms appear larger than they are and the flowing transition from tiled floor to shower tray gives them an extremely elegant appearance. ...more

Flush baths with no disturbing elements

Ahlen, March 2009. The completely flush bathtub, i.e. a bathtub with no protruding interior elements to get in the way, is no longer just a pipe dream. The combination of the Kaldewei waterfall bath inlet and the Geberit PushControl overflow significantly increase the luxury and comfort when taking a bath because any fittings which limit the bather’s freedom of movement — alone or with a partner – are completely superfluous. The Kaldewei waterfall bath inlet integrates harmoniously into the design of the bath, the round cover lies flush with the inside wall and is available in the same colours as the bath - alpine white, pergamon and manhattan. Operating the waterfall bath inlet is child’s play: when the mixer is opened, the cover automatically opens slightly and shapes the inflowing water into an even waterfall. When the tap is closed again, the cover of the waterfall bath inlet returns to its original position. ...more

Kaldewei anti-slip ornamentation combines functionality and beauty

Ahlen, March 2009. The term “ornament” stems from the Latin ornare and means “decorate, adorn”. The new Kaldewei anti-slip ornamentation combines functionality and beauty to maximum effect in the bathroom by fusing two surfaces which are characterised by a different haptic into a harmonious whole. The design in the shape of a flowing wave subtly interacts with the playful, floral details to take up the trend towards using ornamentation as a decorative element in architecture and interior design and applies it with perfection to the bathroom wellness oasis. The new anti-slip ornamentation is available for all Superplan floor-level steel enamel 3.5 millimetre showers up to 120 centimetres in size. Kaldewei anti-slip is a surface structure made from a quartz-sand mixture and is permanently stoved into the steel enamel surface. So it does not wear off even when subjected to continuous wear and tear and guarantees even better safety underfoot when taking a shower. ...more

Golden ornamentation for Kaldewei baths and shower trays

Ahlen, March 2009. In our society, opulence and luxury demonstrate a way of life which is set apart from normal life by its exclusive characteristic features and is often seen as a symbol for success. No material characterises these notions as strongly as gold. Kaldewei, European market leader for baths and shower trays in steel enamel 3.5 millimetre, is once again emphasising its innovative strength with extraordinary gold ornamentation and introducing the unique radiance of this noble material into high-class bathrooms. Kaldewei baths and shower trays can be provided with individual 24 carat gold ornamentation as an optional extra. Twenty-four carat gold - also known as “999 gold” - is very pure refined gold with a gold content of 99.9%. At Kaldewei, the gold ornamentation is applied onto the enamelled surface of the baths or shower trays before being permanently stoved in. ...more
