Expertise everywhere

Geberit’s leadership within sanitary technology and all-round expertise in concealed bathroom design make us the choice for architects, specifying engineers and planners. Our broad product range satisfies the most demanding standards of design, durability and hygiene in public, semi-public and residential installations.

Private homes

We offer aesthetically designed,

reliable and cost-effective flush

plates – but the beauty of our

products is far from just skin deep.

Office blocks

Fire protection installation systems

and flexible flush plates designs are

just two of the options available to

office blocks.

Airports

One-piece moulded cisterns are

one of the many robust and

reliable products available for

heavily frequented public toilets.

Hotels

Hotel rooms must be hygienic, so

Geberit supplies flushing systems

that automatically refresh drinking

water in periods of low usage.

Retirement homes

Extra handrail fixtures to aid elderly

or disabled users are an example of

how Geberit products can be

adapted to changing circumstances

in our customers’ lives.

What lies behind the best-designed bathrooms?

Knowledge, innovation and integration – together these form our guiding

philosophy: Know-How Installed. We employ all three in the development

of products that are beautifully designed, efficient, reliable, hygienic and

user-friendly. And nowhere are these benefits more important than in public

washrooms. As the most communal rooms in any building, these deserve the

utmost attention to quality and comfort. All Geberit products are designed for

swift and easy installation, making them the ideal choice for building projects

of every scale.Reliability

Our concealed cisterns are moulded in one robust piece, radically reducing the likeli-hood of leakage.

Design

Our flush plates are now avail-able in stylish new designs with customisation options.

Hygiene

The concept behind our touch-less taps is as simple as it is advanced: no touching = no germs.

Water saving

Geberit touchless, automatic one-litre flush technology greatly reduces water waste.

Drawn together in perfect harmony

Page 7: Building design, hygiene and quality into new washroom ... · Our new range of flush plates for toilets and urinals* are designed to complement each other perfectly and create one

Our new range of flush plates for

toilets and urinals* are designed to

complement each other perfectly

and create one harmonious expres-

sion throughout the bathroom. Now

you can enjoy the design freedom

offered by Sigma flush plates.

These are available as single and

dual flush models and in a selection

of colours and surfaces. Both are

fully compatible with the UP300 and

new UP320 concealed cisterns.

Improving the concept of hands-off hygiene

Optimal hygiene is the foundation

of bathroom design. Thanks to

improved sensor technology,

Geberit hygienic touchless urinal

flush plates and taps now boast

even greater reliability and

durability.

Sensor-operated taps

Geberit HyTronic electronic washbasin taps are entirely sensor-operated. Their reliable performance is complemented by their hygienic self-flushing function.

Urinal flush plates*

Our touchless flush plates for urinals enable a greater hygiene level in any public bathroom.

* Urinal plates available from 01.01.09

Toilet flush plates

Geberit touchless flushing options feature sensors that react to either a waving hand or the body moving away from the toilet seat.

A water-tight investment

Page 11: Building design, hygiene and quality into new washroom ... · Our new range of flush plates for toilets and urinals* are designed to complement each other perfectly and create one

Look closely at the body of our

concealed cisterns and you won’t

find a single joint or seam. This is

thanks to state-of-the-art one-

piece plastic mold production,

which means there is no danger of

cracks forming anywhere. The new

UP320 is truly an extremly reliable

long-term investment. The UP320

joins a host of Geberit innovations

designed for long-term cost-effec-

tiveness. These include dual flush

and one litre flush options.

Dual flush

Save water by selecting the appropriate flushing technology: single flush (six litres) or dual flush (six or three litres).

One-litre flush for urinals

Save even more water by letting one litre do the work of more conventional three litre volumes.

Room for expression

By keeping the unsightly out of sight, Geberit concealed elements create a

calm design, even in the more limited spaces of hotel room bathrooms. And it’s

never just a question of looks. Behind every Geberit surface is a fascinating

ensemble of innovations.

Hygiene

When fixtures aren’t used for some time, the water stagnates. Automatic sanitary flushing from Geberit replaces the potable water in pipes on a regular basis.

Design

Our new toilet and urinal flush plate ranges are perfectly matched in appearance and quality, with the possibility to select the inlay of your choice.

Safety and comfort

Geberit also integrates fire protection and noise reduction into its installation systems.

Changing the face of creativity

Create a unique bathroom expression, individual to the finest detail. Sigma50

flush plates come in a range of colors—white, black, pergamon and green

satinised – for a touch of color and flair. There is also a customisable inlay

option allowing you to match the flush plate to your bathroom’s décor.

That’s integrated technology at its most flexible and stylish.

Built to protect

Silent-db20

Providing increased levels of sound proofing, the Silent-db20 drainage system offers outstanding acoustic insulation by applying mineral reinforced plastic pipes and fittings with a ribbed profile which have enhanced noise reducing properties.

Fire protection sleeve

Designed to offer section insulation for Silent-db20, the sleeve has a fire resistance time of 120 minutes. It can be used for both straight ceiling feed-throughs as well as more complex installations.

Sound protection

Our dry wall systems are the ideal basis to fulfill fire and noise standards.

With the bigger picture always in

mind, Geberit develops installation

systems for fire and noise protec-

tion. Everything you need to meet

fire regulations and reduce irritating

or harmful noise is right here.

Personal hygiene

The Balena shower toilet offers the ultimate sanitary solution in terms of personal hygiene and well-being.

Noise reduction

The Silent-db20 drainage pipe system reduces the noise of draining water.

Aesthetic and practical design

Our washbasin trap embodies functional conveniences as well as clean, attractive design.

Page 22: Building design, hygiene and quality into new washroom ... · Our new range of flush plates for toilets and urinals* are designed to complement each other perfectly and create one

Washbasin trap

Stylish in design with a chrome finish, the washbasin trap features an in-built hydraulic element that directs water in a constant and direct stream towards the waste pipe creating a self cleaning effect.

Chrome popup and filler bath trap

Geberit bath trap assemblies have been tried and tested in millions of applications; the water is emptied from the tubs reliably and without the typical gurgling noise. The trap can be opened and closed by turning the overflow rosette without having to immerse hands in water.

PushControl bath trap

The push actuator’s flat design allows two people to sit comfortably in the bath. The drain can be fitted into most standard bath tubs. The lower trap enables the inlet height to be lowered.

Geberit’s range of washbasin traps,

bath fillers and popups strikes the

perfect balance between form and

function, combining outstanding

performance with striking aesthetic

qualities that enhance the look of

any modern bathroom.

The height of individuality

Corner frame

The corner frame makes the traditionally difficult corner situation into a stylish design feature and often helps save valuable floor space.

Disabled frame

The disabled frame is designed to accommodate fixings for support handles and, during installation, height of WC can be adjusted between 410mm to 460mm.

We know that one size doesn’t fit

all, so we have designed Duofix

frames to allow more flexiable and

individual designs meeting all

design requirements.

One sound barrier that can’t be broken

Can you really hear comfort?

Absolutely. And the less you hear

the better. Take for example our

flush plates: these are mounted on

rubber nodes for almost silent

operation. And that’s only one of

countless Geberit product features

designed specifically for sound

reduction.

Silent-db20 drainage pipe

Constructed from a composite of barium sulfate and polyethylene, the Silent-db20 drainage pipe system reduces the noise of draining water.

Filling valve

Despite being the most complex mechanisms in our cisterns, Geberit filling valves emit next to no noise.

When nothing but the best will do

The Hotel Splendid in Montenegro played a starring role in the 2006 James

Bond film Casino Royale. An exclusive five-star retreat on the Adriatic Riviera,

Hotel Splendid offers its guests nothing but the very best in luxury, design and

quality. No surprise then that the architects selected Geberit sanitary elements

throughout. Amongst other solutions, Geberit supplied the hotel with no less

than 400 Duofix WC frames and 400 flush plates with satinox surfaces. Hotel

Splendid’s drainage system boasts 3615 metres of Silent-db20 pipes and its

water supply network includes 2678 meters of Mapress high-grade steel pipes.

Integrating sustainability into quality design

Geberit was founded amidst the unspoiled beauty of the Swiss Alps, so

it is no wonder we have always dedicated ourselves to preserving the

environment. We integrate sustainability into all our work practices and

products. For example, our water conserving technologies such as one

litre flushing had already saved more than 4,500 million m3 of water by

2006. That is millions of people now able to contribute to conservation

in their own homes and workplaces thanks to Geberit. And we treasure

all our other resources just as much, especially people. You can read
