Choosing the right faucet range for every project – big or small

Whether you are designing a residential project or hospital, you need a range of faucets that can be made to fit every demand. Faucets that can be installed anywhere, for any purpose.

In today’s market, when it comes to planning a building project, there are several factors to consider when choosing the right faucets. Will they be expected to withstand high use? Do they need to meet strict health and safety requirements? Should they look a certain way – and can you find a range that offers flexibility in terms of design and purpose? More importantly, do they take into account global trends such as sustainability and connectivity?

At Oras, we have incorporated all the above into a portfolio of state-of-the-art faucets that are equal parts smart, safe and stylish – and can be managed via a mobile device. Embedded with Bluetooth® technology, water and energy use can be fully optimised via our simple-to-use Oras App.

To help you with your selection, we’ve listed some of our products below that can bring style, comfort and usability to any project.

Give your hotel the luxury feel

When it comes to a hotel, the first thing to consider is the user. They want something that is simple to use and looks good. For the proprietor, focus veers more towards durability and sustainability – in essence, faucets that will save water and energy while looking good for years to come.

With the Oras Inspera range, we offer a selection of SMART touchless faucets that cover all these criteria. Simply connect each relevant faucet to your app to monitor water consumption and battery life, and to set automatic flushing controls – among many other features.

For homes that stand out

When designing or refitting someone’s home, consider faucets that are easy to install, simple to use, and, ultimately, are extremely safe: so that anyone of any age – or physical ability – can operate them.

With Oras Optima, choose between our high-quality touchless or single-lever faucets for both the bathroom and the kitchen. Both have faucets that come with enhanced safety features, including eco-buttons for the bathroom that support people’s sustainability efforts and temperature displays with a hot water warning for the kitchen.

All faucets are made with nickel-free coatings, to keep drinking water pure, and our SMART Bluetooth-enabled models can help end-users save water by up to 50%. The Oras Optima range also includes rain shower systems, so all water spaces of the home can be fitted with the same style.

For health and care environments that require the highest levels of hygiene

Hospitals need to uphold health and safety conditions around the clock, both for staff and patients. When it comes to faucets, that means making sure the water supply is uncontaminated, and it means providing solutions that optimise good hygiene and are easy to keep clean – limiting the risk of hospital-acquired infections and cross-contamination.

With Oras Medipro and Oras Clinica, we’ve created a range of faucets and thermostats, specifically for health and care environments, designed to improve hygiene and safety and be easy to clean and operate – no matter people’s physical limitations.

Both design lines include touchless models, which reduce surface contact to a minimum and further improve hygiene. And some models include thermal disinfection technology, to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria such as legionella. That means that you can be confident every component in your hospital project is fit to meet the most stringent health and safety requirements.

High-quality faucets for high-traffic environments

We readily assume that high traffic areas such as public and semi-public bathrooms in town centres, schools and airports are hotbeds for germs – but they don’t have to be. By adding Bluetooth-enabled touchless faucets designed to withstand high-volume usage, you can keep germs to a minimum while managing water usage more responsibly. This is where our Oras Electra comes in.

These easily modifiable and touchless faucets can be set to provide premixed water or water that flows at a set temperature – without users having to touch a thing. In addition, thanks to PSD technology, water only flows when hand movement is detected. Such accuracy is also great at helping limit any potential vandalism as there is no possibility to leave the water running for more than two minutes, even if an object is placed in front of the faucet sensor.
