BLACK SPIRIT range from DELABIE - Opt for black in public facilities.
Having conquered kitchens and bathrooms in private homes, black has set out to conquer sanitary spaces in public buildings as well. This timeless color is a safe solution that gives rooms a unique style and introduces a slightly industrial, cool, yet elegant character. It looks beautiful in combination with gold elements or in juxtaposition with wood. It is perfect for designer interiors of clubs, restaurants or hotels. However, the DELABIE brand realizes that looks are not everything, and the public sector needs specific products that can simultaneously withstand heavy use and are easy to clean to ensure optimal hygiene for all users. That is why, in response to this trend, the brand DELABIE has created a unique BLACK SPIRIT range . BLACK SPIRIT plumbing fixtures and sanitary appliances and accessories not only follow the black trend, but also meet the specific requirements of public facilities, such as easy hygiene, unmatched durability, easy installation and simple maintenance.

Fittings with character - when beauty and utility go hand in hand
Selected and installed in many public buildings around the world, BLACK BINOPTIC fixtures combine aesthetics with specific functionalities adapted to the needs of the public sector. The 100% brass construction coated with matte black chrome provides optimal resistance. Touchless operation avoids the transfer of germs on the hands, and the anti-bacterial function of periodic flushing 24 hours from the last start-up eliminates stagnant water and bacterial growth in the system. The unique design of the BLACK BINOPTIC mixer, with a smooth inside spout that retains a minimum amount of water, also prevents the growth of bacteria inside the mixer and thus ensures total hygiene. Set at 3 l/min, the outflow and automatic shut-off provide 90% water savings compared to standard mixers. In addition, the outflow from the BLACK BINOPTIC mixer can be adjusted from 1.4 to 6 l/min. In terms of maintenance, anti-sediment (strainer, mechanism) and filters guarantee minimal maintenance of the mixer. Its electronic box has LEDs to help with diagnostics, and direct access to components (faucets, solenoid valve) facilitates interventions.

Sanitary appliances coated with Teflon® - durability and hygiene at the highest level
The new range of black sanitary fixtures from DELABIE is made of Inox 304, which provides them with exceptional resistance to intensive use (unbreakable material) and lightness, which in turn is not insignificant during installation. Stainless steel is coated in this case with matte black Teflon® (a.k.a. PTFE). This material is extremely resistant to all chemicals. Yes, it is exactly the same material that is found on pans or pots in our kitchens. The only difference is that sanitary appliances (sinks, toilets or urinals) are not exposed to as much stress as kitchen utensils (i.e. high temperatures or contact with sharp tools, such as knives). Thus, the black finish will remain intact on them for a long time. In addition, Teflon® has extremely low adhesion, which means that any dirt will simply slip off. Thus, scale, the main enemy of black, will have great difficulty settling on it. Maintenance and cleaning of sanitary facilities will therefore be much easier. The range includes wall-mounted, countertop and built-in washbasins, wall-mounted, floor-standing, handicapped or integrated tank toilets, as well as urinals and baffles between toilets.
