Capturing a passion for superior quality and process, the Catalano brand showcases the Cataglaze+ antibacterial glazing technique and precision manufacturing facilities. The collection sees considered design elements that speak to a modern aesthetic, but also to timeless palette that will extend beyond its years. With a quarter of Catalano’s power used in the making of its products, generated from solar, the emphasis for Catalano is firmly placed on reducing its footprint and lowering its impact.

Additionally, Cataglaze+ offers a superior glazing technique, ensuring a perfectly smooth finish, ensuring retention of brightness. Through the use of automation, efficiency of energy and resourcing is captured, while the latest generation robotics allows for the highest precision. The Catalano bathroom brand not only offers innovation and quality through a sustainable lens, but also speaks to an enduring and sophisticated look.

Employing their inherent influence of re-using and recycling, the Claybrook brand is built on principles that are embedded in sustainability and complete control over the manufacturing process. Having engineered their own MarbleForm, Claybrook bathware sees the by-product of their mosaic tile business re-purposed and restructured into new pieces. The manufacturing process is emission-free, low impact and utilizes environmentally sustainable products, materials and manufacturing methods which completes the process.

This complete control over the manufacture, production and finishing process allows for a completion of the process cycle to occur under the watchful hand of the brand. Each piece is hand finished, with the one artisan working on the piece from beginning to end, where a three-day polishing process and an embedded chip ensures the quality and authenticity of each piece. The Claybrook brand combines innovation, quality and an impassioned approach to making.
