How often have you had to sit on the toilet in order to keep an eye on your children whilst they bathe and play in the bath?

Do your children struggle to reach the sink when trying to wash and clean their teeth?

Do you get fed up of the endless trips between the bedroom and bathroom when you are getting ready in the morning?

These are old questions to age old problems for which no bathroom manufacturer has provided a solution. That is of course until now. Dansani recognize that it’s the details that enable you to get the most out of your bathroom. This is why their Calidris range of furniture provides your children with a stool to stand on so that they can reach the sink and you with soft cushioned bench seat so that you can sit in comfort whilst your children are in the bath and al last, a wardrobe system where it’s truly needed….. in the bathroom!

Who’s who in Grand Designs Awards 2009

The Grand Designs Awards recognises the importance of every-day design and quality and is sponsored by British Gas.

Best bathroom product was sponsored by Futurenergy. This year they were looking for baths, sinks, toilets, taps, bidets, showers, shower enclosures, shower trays and bathroom radiators. As you would expect, sustainability is driving all kinds of clever water-saving technologies – but also thermostatic technology as well.

Catalano’s Proizioni range was selected as one of the 6 finalists for the BEST BATHROOM PRODUCT 2009 from over 300 products worldwide.

Proizezioni – A new interpretation of lightness. A new expression of synergy among elegance, functionality and innovation. A new balance among shapes, materials and dimensions, which led to an unusual harmony in relation of parts (component).

The Proiezioni range comprises 7 basins; (75cm / 90cm / 105 cm / 120cm) all featuring a short projection of only 42cm, allowing relatively large basins to be used in a space-saving way. Installation can be wall hung or inset. A variety of Catalano WC’s can be used with these basins, making the range highly versatile.

Additional Information
Proiezioni represents the highest level of quality reached in the manufacture of ceramic sanitaryware, working at the limit of extreme shapes. On the outside, the style and fashion of Catalano design; on the inside, a highly technological project.

The world water crisis is one of the largest public issues of our time. Moreover, lack of clean water is one of the largest obstacles to progress and development in many regions across the world. Catalano, with Proiezioni, strongly felt a binding commitment to try and contribute towards easing these problems in any way it could within its bathroom market sector. On this note, the Proiezioni WC’s, CWE certified, not only reduce water consumption (only 3 – 4.5 lire flush) but also, by use of our special glaze technology, reduces the quantity of detergents required to be used for their cleansing.

Catalano’s Proizioni range was selected from over 300 products worldwide, as one of the 6 finalists for the BEST BATHROOM PRODUCT 2009.

Ceramica Catalano is the only sanitaryware ceramic manufacturer to achieve this result.
