  • We set out to understand our customers better than anyone else, embarking on an exploration into daily habits and routines. What we discovered was that everyone is different, with different habits, routines, moods and needs. Inspired to create an experience which adapts to these changing needs, our challenge was not only to satisfy these, but incorporate sustainable water use and simplified manufacturing processes.

  • The Tūroa shower range combines considered technology and sustainable principles resulting in a product that's better for you and the environment. The intuitive control allows the user to seamlessly transition from a firm, invigorating spray to a gentle, enveloping fine spray. The control cleverly channels water through two spaces variably dividing into spirals or straight jets and everything in-between. The construction incorporates standard sized stainless steel tube, a material which lends itself to flexible manufacturing processes and enables alternative finishes beyond chrome. The design approach enables circular economy principles to be considered and is complemented by the optimized water use.

  • Amazing water experiences do not need to come at the expense the world's most precious resource, water. Our unrelenting pursuit to optimize not only our water use but also our manufacturing processes has lead us to create an experience which is not compromised. VJET is a new spray technology without limitations, uniquely tailored by you. Tūroa uses less water and is manufactured from more sustainable materials than traditional methods. It combines considered technology and sustainable principles with a clean, contemporary aesthetic resulting in a product that's better for you and the environment.
