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 the Ceramicplus finish. This gives the ceramic a dirt-repellent surface that prevents limescale and dirt from adhering, making cleaning easier.
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.
HygienicFlush
Smarter flushing for improved hygiene and easier cleaning. The innovative design with open rim and smooth surfaces minimizes all potential dirt traps. HygienicFlush reduces the need to use strong cleaning agents.
HygienicTwist
Revolutionary flushing technology that effectively removes dirt. The flush features a powerful water vortex that cleans thoroughly and reduces the need for a toilet brush. Toilets with HygienicTwist are rimless, minimizing dirt traps and making cleaning even easier and more hygienic.
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.
Mixers
Adjustable Flow
A smart function that allows for individual adjustment of the mixer's maximum flow. If you wish, you can easily adjust the maximum flow - the function is fully adjustable for individual adaptation.
Opti Flow
The mixer features an effective and optimised flow of water. You therefore enjoy the same wonderful, functional experience as always, but using less water and energy.
Sensor-controlled mixer
The smart sensor technology starts the water when your hands are in the right position, and turns it off as soon as you remove them. When cleaning, cover the sensor eye and the faucet will temporarily deactivate. Powered by standard battery or transformer.
Cold Start
Innovative technology ensures that the mixer supplies 100% cold water from its start position facing forward, eliminating unnecessary use of hot water.
Even pressure & temperature
Thermostatic mixers feature built-in automatic scald protection and hot-water safety stop with type-approved non-return valves. This means that the mixers react quickly to the changes in temperature and pressure that can arise in the water flow, and even out the differences.
Safe Touch
All thermostatic mixers from Gustavsberg are fitted with a Safe Touch function, which means they are designed to lead the hot water along the rear side of the mixer. This minimises the heat level on the front side of the thermostat, thus reducing the risk of burns.
Lead-free
The product is made of materials where lead constitutes less than 0.1% of the total weight.
Electronic shut-off valve
The smart self-closing valve increases water safety in your kitchen. Choose between three timing settings when the valve is open. A discreet LED lamp (green, blue, yellow) communicates your selected time setting and turns off when the valve is closed.
Leakage breaker
If water comes into contact with the detector, the valve closes immediately and the leakage breaker’s red LED lamp will flash. Even if the valve is closed, the LED lamp flashes if there are leakages from other devices.
Dual function
The mixer is operated as normal with a lever, but is also fully control-lable with the digital control. A LED light communicates the selected temperature. For smarter use, flow and temperature can be program-med in three favourite settings that are activated via quick select.
Quick fit
The mixer is installed using a quick fit nut that is simply pushed up to its stop position and then tightened. This smart solution simplifies installation and saves time, money and sore backs.
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 Plus5 system that raise the valve 5 cm with a simple movement – for deeper water and a more luxurious bath.
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.
