For those who love metallic finishes.

When it comes to selecting fixtures and fittings for your bathroom the task can be daunting. With so much to consider you may think it’s best to stick to a safe option, however, with the finishes in our tapware range, you no longer have to contemplate your decision based on the quality or ageing process. 

For those who love metallic finishes, Plumbline is now offering new PVD finishes that won’t oxidize, corrode, or scratch overtime, so it will retain its shine in years to come.

What is PVD?

PVD stands for 'Physical Vapor Deposition', a highly innovative technology where a thin metal vapour is deposited onto the surface of bathroom products such as tapware, showers, and accessories in a vacuum chamber.

This produces an extremely high surface hardness, preventing scratching or corrosion and offers a long lasting, highly durable finish that will not age or alter over time. The production process is environmentally friendly as it does not create chemical waste, harmful gases, or other residues.

What are the benefits of PVD?

  • Luxurious finish that is resistant to wear
  • Less susceptible to corrosion
  • Easier to maintain and clean
  • Durable and long-lasting
  • Eco-friendly production
  • Available in a wide range of tapware, showers, and accessories
  • Available in a range of premium finishes like Brushed Brass, Brushed Bronze
    and Brushed Gunmetal

A Luxurious Finish for Your Unique Bathroom

Not so long-ago chrome was essentially the only bathroom tapware finish available. Nowadays, tapware brings forth a unique sense of luxury with the power to transform any space. The colour of your tapware is one of those things you may not have considered for your new bathroom or renovation project, but those little touches make a big statement to the overall look of your design.

When it comes to selecting fixtures and fittings, PVD is leading the way with its radiant finishes that will retain their shine, as an alternative to organic finishes that age and change over time. Finishes such as Brushed Brass PVD, Brushed Bronze PVD and Brushed Gunmetal PVD add a touch of glamour to any space and pair well with so many unique bathroom designs and styles.

Plumbline offers PVD tapware in our Buddy, Como, Oli 316 and Fantini collections, as well as matching accessories to complete the look.
