20 Khromaclean

A showertoilet from Roca, that features unique colours and a unique design, as well as a very comfortable seat & cover and backrest which turns the Khroma WC into a comfortable chair that is both fashionable and functional. (Roca)

21 Prefabricated misconception

“There is a common misconception that prefabricated means ‘cheap’ or lower quality; that couldn’t be further from the truth. We can integrate a limitless number of interior finishes into prefabricated bathrooms. That includes using marble flooring, hand painted mosaics and paint, all on the same wall if necessary.” (Robert Harper, TecnoIN)

22 Fewer steps to completion

“In a traditional bathroom wall, you take a wall of gypsum board and tile it in a conventional way. That requires literally hundreds of steps to finish one wall. With a high-quality, pre-fabricated product, you can build the walls and floors in one step.” (Robert Harper, TecnoIN)

23 Integrative approach to design

“On one hand, quality bathroom design in the Middle East reflects influences from the US and Europe. On the other hand, it is based on traditional Arabian characteristics like the use of stone and marble. It is a creative and integrative approach of both that is required in the Middle East.” (Franz Kook, Duravit)

24 proDetect

This is a revolutionary urinal flush with radar technology. proDetect is vandal proof and reliable. All of the technology is concealed behind the ceramic unit and can therefore not be manipulated or destroyed. And, due to the fact that proDetect does not have any sensors in the siphon, the system always operates reliably and its performance is not compromised by debris, urinescale or limescale. (Villeroy & Boch)

25 Favourable cost comparison

“If clients properly analyse the cost of building a bathroom, including the civil work and completing the work on-schedule, prefabricated bathrooms are far less expensive than conventional methods.” (Robert Harper, TecnoIN)

The ultimate bathroom retreat
The ultimate bathroom retreat is not complete without a bidet or better yet....a hand bathroom bidet sprayer. The hand sprayer gives you superior control and water volume and if the bathroom was not designed to allow for a bidet(the majority of them) it offers the convenience of installation on the existing toilet AND you don't have to get up and move every time! You will pay for it many times over in toilet paper savings. Available at www.bathroomsprayers.com Blog; http://community.greenhangout.com/_Dont-Say-It-Spray-It/blog/259546/82268.html
