A worldwide design revolution for electronic faucets — this is what GROHE has set out to trigger with its restyled and re-engineered Essence E and Eurocube E lines of faucets.

These two new faucets feature arguably the most expressive and captivating designs in today’s infrared faucet sector. Whether it’s the organically flowing lines of Essence E, or the straight geometric posture of Eurocube E, the design potential of electronic faucets has clearly been taken to the max here.

Already a long-time feature in public and commercial washrooms, touchless faucets are also gaining in popularity in residential bathrooms due to their unique combination of comfort and hygiene. The two new GROHE faucets demonstrate that they can also make bold design statements.

Whatever the décor and the ambience, Essence E and Eurocube E offer the ideal faucet. Their perfect proportions ensure maximum comfort in use with lots of space under the spout for hand-washing. Their intuitive design means they are optimally suited for bathrooms and sanitary facilities used by children and older people.

Gentle transitions and softly rounded contours make Essence E the focus of attention in the bathroom. Washbasin cleaning is facilitated by its swivel spout — a rare find in the electronic faucet sector. Models of various heights are available with and without mixing lever.

The visual impact of Eurocube E could hardly be any more different. Its contemporary and clearly minimalist design makes a highly confident statement. All details down to the unobtrusive mixing lever share the same design language, resulting in a perfectly poised sculpture.

Both faucets can be optimally paired with numerous washbasin variants. Their bi-directional sensors are positioned for flawless functionality even when mounted on washbasins with elevated edges. For added versatility, the modern infrared units come with seven pre-programmed standard settings for the most common applications.

In addition, facility managers can retrieve important information on water consumption and faucet usage. As always, the element of sustainability has also been taken into account: the sensor-controlled start-stop function automatically ensures that water only flows as long as a user’s hands are detected below the spout. At the same time, the faucets economies on water by capping consumption at 5.7 liters per minute without compromising on user comfort.
