For 90 years one of DELABIE’s major challenges has been to preserve natural resources and to contribute to sustainable development. The company is fully committed to eco-responsible production.
During every phase of a product’s design, production, distribution and operational life, it’s environmental impact is taken into account.
DELABIE uses recyclable and recycled raw materials to manufacture its products wherever possible.
The materials used are environmentally friendly, for example, the use of heavy metals is limited to a minimum.
UNIQUE SOLUTIONS, ECONOMICAL WITH WATER AND ENERGY
Regarding DELABIE’s water controls – the course of action is clear: water and energy consumption is reduced to what is strictly necessary.
The majority of DELABIE’s mixers and taps are fitted with flow rate limiters or regulators to reduce water consumption as much as possible.
But DELABIE doesn’t stop there. Special mechanisms have been developed to achieve water and energy savings of up to 90%.
ECOLOGICAL TIME FLOW SOLUTIONS
DELABIE’S push-button taps have an ecological advantage. They do not consume any energy thanks to their hydraulic mechanism.
The water flow stops automatically after a pre-set time, depending on the type of product. The shut-off delay is 7 seconds for basin mixers and taps, 3 seconds for urinals and 30 seconds for showers.
This reduces the flow time to what is strictly necessary while the user wets and rinses their hands or body.
ECONOMICAL ELECTRONIC SOLUTIONS
DELABIE’s electronic mixers and taps optimise water and energy consumption. The water flow shuts off immediately when hands are removed from under the tap, avoiding any risk of waste.
The components used in DELABIE’s electronic mixers and taps consume very little energy (bistable solenoid valve, optimised infrared detection). This saves energy while ensuring effective detection.
