Sanitaryware and plumbing fittings

A bathroom is intended to serve personal hygiene and body care purposes. However, in addition to these basic requirements, the time spent in the bathroom is also expected to provide refreshment, relaxation and enhanced well-being.

Showering and bathing are only perceived to be pleasurable if the plumbing fittings that need to be operated are easy to use, cannot cause injury and do not put the user at risk of being scolded by excessively hot water. And who likes taps which drip or are difficult to clean?

TÜV Rheinland Product Safety GmbH's experts have developed a wide variety of laboratory tests and practical user tests to ensure that sanitaryware and plumbing fittings meet all these requirements. The appropriate "TÜV Marks" for fittings, ceramics, and accessories indicate their compliance with these requirements and facilitate the decision-making process.
