Gustavsberg's Smart Symbols
Smart symbols for smart bathroom solutions
In order for you to find the qualities you are looking for in your bathroom products, we have created simple symbols to make the searching easier. Gustavsberg's smart symbols, listed below, explain advantages in choosing and using our products.
Toilets

Quiet and dry
The fully encompassing porcelain cistern conceals a separate inner tank. T his reduces noise and counter - acts the build-up of condensation on the cistern, helping prevent the accumulation of dust.

No room for dirt
On toilets with porcelain covers, the “seam” between the seating ring and the cover has been moved up. A soft curve in the porcelain simplifies cleaning and prevents the build-up of dirt. The foot of the toilet is smooth to facilitate cleaning and improve hygiene.

Soft close
Hard, solid toilet seats have previously been associated with loud noises when they are lowered. Soft close functionality has solved this problem through the introduction of a damper that is built into the seat to ensure that it can be lowered gently and quietly. The damper has no direct contact with the porcelain, which facilitates cleaning and makes the seat more hygienic.

Quick release
With quick-release functionality, you can remove the toilet seat from the bowl easily and without tools. The seat and toilet can then be cleaned separately, which is both simpler and more hygienic.

CeramicPlus = C+
Many of our products are available with ceramicplus surface treatment. This provides the porcelain with a dirtrepellent surface that prevents the accumulation of limescale and dirt. CeramicPlus is also good for the environment, as it means that you can use a milder detergent – and less of it! – when cleaning.

Suprafix
The patented suprafix system simplifies installation of your wall-mounted toilet and cuts installation time. Built-in wall fitting for invisible installation of wall-mounted toilets. Neater design, free from dirt traps, means improved hygiene and simpler cleaning.

Hygienic Flush
Smarter flushing for improved hygiene and easier cleaning. The innovative design with open rim and smooth surfaces eliminates all potential dirt traps. Hygienic flush minimises the need to use strong cleaning agents.

Concealed fixture system
Wall fitting for concealed installation of wall-mounted toilets. Neater design, free from dirt traps, means improved hygiene and simpler cleaning.

Flexible bolt spacing
Flexible bolt spacing makes it possible to replace your existing wall-mounted toilet with a new model, regardless of whether the distance between the bolts on the wall is 180 or 230 mm.

Sensor-controlled flush
Atouch-free flush function means improved hygiene. Using an app, the function can be set to flush automatically when the user walks away, or to flush at hygienic intervals if the toilet is used infrequently. Touch-free is a smart solution for all users, both at home and in public environments.
Showers & bathtubs

Elevating hinge
The elevating hinge is a smart detail that lifts the shower walls 5 mm every time you open and close it. This minimises wear on both the floor and the shower doors. A practical function that provides a sense of authentic luxury.

Reversible
Shower doors, reversible for right/left-hand installation; they can open both outwards and inwards, which helps save precious space.

Glazeplus
Our bathtubs are available with an extra surface treatment called “glazeplus”. This is a crystal-clear polymer film that protects the surface of your bathtub against dirt and limescale deposits – which facilitates cleaning and reduces the amount of detergent you need to use.

Plus5
An overflow outlet on the bathtub rim prevents the water from overflowing – but means a lower water level when you bathe. Gustavsberg has solved this problem with the smartest overflow outlet on the market: the plus5 system lets you raise the valve 5 cm with a simple movement – for deeper water and a more luxurious bath. An overflow outlet is an insurance requirement for fixed installation tubs in bathrooms without a floor drain.

Anti-slip
The bathtub is available with an anti-slip treatment where quartz sand has been burned into the enamel in an aesthetically neutral pattern. The surface counteracts the risk of slipping when entering or leaving the bathtub. Moreover, it is located at the foot end of the tub so that it does not affect the overall bathing experience.

Support handles
You can order the bathtub with support handles on the rim to improve safety and ease of use.
Bathroom furniture

Soft close furniture
The acoustics in a bathroom can result in loud, sudden noises being particularly irritating. With soft-close functionality, cabinet doors and drawers close gently and quietly.

Moisture resistant
The wood used in gustavsberg bathroom furniture has been developed and tested for high durability in hot, humid bathroom environments. Smart design – e.g. the way our washbasins extend beyond the edge of our washbasins – protects the furniture from splashes and eliminates unnecessary moisture traps.
