Stainless steel as a medium for enhancing people’s living spaces in regards to functional fittings and fixtures has come in leaps and bounds over recent years.

The bathroom space, along with the patio and poolside spaces have seen an upward trend in creating a higher end and aesthetically defined finish through the use of quality stainless steel.

This increased interest in the finishes that can be achieved can be attributed to more than one benefit.

The durability of quality stainless steel is unquestionable, and is also commonly known and spoken of. It’s ability to take on the forces of direct weight, and other daily tests of strength, without anything but a tiny scratch have seen it lead the way in bathroom and shower drainage and also fixtures. Extending boundlessly into the patio, poolside and pools – even to the extent many other household and industrial drainage applications.

The pleasing aesthetics that can be achieved with stainless steel, be it polished and sheen, or, the more weathered and distressed finishes that are more common place with the drainage section – it’s attractive qualities bring the finish of class, function and quality.

As stainless steel is non corrosive there is no better choice for your linear bathroom drainage system. Being non corrosive, stainless steel is impervious to rust, and will last indefinitely longer than any aluminium or copper. The sleek finish prevents soap scum accumulation, or hard water deposits forming – and therefore by not collecting any of these residues makes it easy to clean and maintain.

The wedgewire ranges Kawana Series 304 and Signature Series 316 offer the above in price ranges that can fit all budgets, and meet the stringent Autralian Standards, therefore offering the quality that is expected. Handmade, here in Australia from start to finish and undergoing a thorough quality control system, ensures that each and every item is to standard.

The high water escape system makes it suitable for all modern applications including double showers.

Imports of similar products from China have increased over the years, offering up cheaper dollar value products. Their appetite for cheap copies of products have always been prevelant – and Chinese wedgewire is no exception.

However the quality of the material being used needs to be kept in perspective, and whereas our products are of the 304 and 316 type stainless steel, it has been shown that some of the imported products can be as low as 301 – which is satisfactory for the mining industry but not for the architectural industry.
