RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT

Dorf Ceradisc® technology provides precise control over the water mix so your tapware delivers just the right amount of water at the right temperature.

Unlike historic ¼ turn tapware, Dorf Ceradisc® technology uses a ½ or ¾ turn to reach full flow, which means you don't use more water than necessary and have ultimate water flow control.

Ceradisc® technology also ensures a water-tight seal that eliminates drips, minimises product maintenance and ultimately save you water and energy over the long term.

The innovative eco-temp feature has been designed for maximum energy savings and safety.

A special spring loaded cartridge ensures that when the mixer is turned on it reaches a pre-determined, comfortable temperature level.

To go beyond this point, the mixer handle needs to be physically pushed across and held in position to maintain the flow of water at the new temperature level.

With water only able to flow at a moderate temperature level without the capability to flow freely at high temperatures, energy is saved.

Also designed for safety, the eco-temp feature also prevents small children from accidental scalding.

A high flow rate of water running through pipes, combined with a mixer that is turned off too quickly will lead to hydraulic acoustics or what is commonly known as water hammer.

The unique soft close technology from Dorf eliminates this problem.

Soft close operates through a built-in shock absorption system that gradually slows the rate at which a mixer can be turned off.

By eliminating rapid shut off, there is no chance of experiencing any noise associated with water hammer, which means your mixers turn off softly and quietly.

Cutting edge, patented, low profile technology from Dorf creates a minimalist look not achievable with standard tapware products.

Low profile tapware is all about the technology and engineering behind the design.

Traditional tapware products feature a handle and spindle combination that sits level with the wall or a basin. Low profile tapware incorporates unique fixing technology designed to be concealed within a wall cavity or below the surface level of a basin.

A special operating mechanism within this fixing system eliminates the need for a handle/spindle combination and the end result is a minimalist look not achievable with traditional tapware products.
