Elegant and touchless wall-mounted taps, clean washbasins, and enough space between them to wash your hands: This image is often precisely what sanitary engineers, architects and operators envisage when planning public or semi-public sanitary facilities projects. The reason why we see so few electronic wall-mounted taps, despite these advantages, is relatively banal: There has been practically no solution so far for planning them safely and installing them without errors.
With its modular tap system, Geberit has developed an impressive solution to remedy the general shortcomings of many touchless washbasin taps and specific problems that arise during the installation of wall-mounted taps. All electronic components, with the exception of the IR sensor, are thus well protected from moisture in a separate function box. It is built in under the washbasin behind the wall and thus enables completely new possibilities for tap design.
Electronic washbasin taps are primarily used in sanitary facilities in public and semi-public buildings such as airports, shopping centres, schools or restaurants. These taps have to be reliable in highly frequented places in particular and must be able to withstand a lot, including rough use. Selecting the right solution is therefore particularly important for reliable function.
