The mixers, showerheads and shower systems created by Hansgrohe SE are original products that make bathrooms more functional, comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. These quality products can be found in many prestigious venues such as the luxury ocean liner Queen Mary II, London Heathrow Airport Terminal 5, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai (the world’s tallest building), the German Chancellery in Berlin, New York’s Yoo luxury residences and the Masdar City Institute of Science and Technology in Abu Dhabi. The company and its products have been honoured with numerous awards, most recently the Red Dot, the Wallpaper* Design Award 2014 in the Category “Best Shower” and the Interior Innovation Award 2014 “Best of Best”.
