GRAFF, the worldwide manufacturer of innovative faucets and shower systems, presents its timeless series LAUREN, which offers a full range of three-hole articles for the washbasin, the bathtub and the shower area. The elements are both deck-mounted and wall-mounted and they are all characterized by sinuous lines and a majestic spout. The gentle curve of the faucet and the slim perfectly-appointed handles can take on a stronger look when shown in the gold-plated finish. The LAUREN collection is now available in a new version with lower spout and also as a single lever mixer. The Lauren Collection is now offered also with cross handles in 20 different finishes. The whole collection can be viewed on www.graff-designs.com
The LAUREN faucets collection by GRAFF is developed in accordance with the most restrictive environmental regulations. From implementing ISO 14001 and therefore meeting the rigorous Environmental Management Systems (EMS) standards, to offering products that respect strict conservation standards, GRAFF is green in every way. GRAFF’s manufacturing system is based on an innovative Lean Manufacturing Management concept. By eliminating waste in the form of time, energy and materials, each process achieves substantial efficiencies. Even with all the foundry, metal finishing and modernized plating, GRAFF has a zero discharge system that recycles 100% of brass and paper products.
GRAFF also works closely with the LEED (Leadership in Environmental and Energy Design) green building rating system. This third party certification program is the nationally accepted benchmark for design, construction and operation of high performance buildings.
GRAFF’s LAUREN faucet blends the character of the past with the design and function needs of today into a product line that is truly remarkable. The collections evoke a nostalgic feel with forms that recall tradition and warmth, and, at the same time, show streamlined design for a sleek, polished look. No matter the style or finish, each LAUREN faucet reflects the quality, beauty and workmanship of GRAFF’s European heritage.
