The products we develop for our customers ensure economical use of water and energy without sacrificing comfort.
About two thirds of water consumption in private households is accounted for in bathrooms with a WC or urinal. As much as a third of water consumption is flushed down the toilet. Contemporary sanitary technology, such as our dual flush technology, which helps to use up to 50% less water.
The second key area, which also accounts for about a third of total water consumption in private house-holds, is personal hygiene. At washbasins and in showers, water often runs even though it is not really needed at all.
This can be dealt with effectively by using GROHE single-lever mixers with GROHE SilkMove® technology which ensures precise control of water flow and temperature.
