MATERIAL EXPERTISE
KALDEWEI STEEL ENAMEL: UNIQUE MATERIAL FOR PREMIUM BATHROOM SOLUTIONS
Used for centuries, steel and glass are two entirely authentic and natural materials, each with its own inherent properties. Steel signifies strength, toughness, robustness and optimum ductility. Glass is highly resistant to chemical or thermal stress and has an excellent appearance. KALDEWEI steel enamel combines robust steel and tough glass to form an inseparable bond harnessing the strengths of each material in perfect symbiosis. KALDEWEI is the only bathroom manufacturer to produce its own enamel. Fired in the most advanced furnaces of their kind, the special formula bonds with high-quality steel to produce a material that has stood for the synthesis of robustness and aesthetics, hygiene and sophisticated design for more than four generations. KALDEWEI steel enamel is unique.

Bathroom designers all around the world trust in the superior properties of this material.
