Sales of Sandwich shower heads, which have been manufactured by Cristina Rubinetterie for a decade now, have reached the significant milestone of 100,000 units.
The Sandwich shower head, incorporating state-of-the-art design and materials, is renowned for its eco-friendly credentials. The first thing you're struck by is its ultra-slim design: two overlaid sheets of steel, with total thickness of just 4 mm, allow effective operation at minimal pressure. So you can enjoy a comfortable, cascade shower with a flow rate of just 13 litres per minute at a pressure of 1 bar, thus saving considerable amounts of water.
The choice of materials is important: the shower heads are made with sheets of stainless steel, which are not only corrosion-resistant, scratch-resistant and practically everlasting, but also non-toxic, easy to clean and extremely hygienic. And if that's not enough, they're environmentally sustainable too, because over 80% of the steel comes from recycled sources. The anti-limescale nozzles are made of silicone and are easy to replace individually.
Available in various shapes - round, square, oval and rectangular - and lots of different sizes, Sandwich shower heads are the company's standard-bearers for exclusive looks and exceptional quality.
