DORMA Gral shower systems achieve new EC quality standard

All shower systems in the extensive GRAL range from DORMA have been successfully tested to a new quality standard, EN 14428; resulting in compliance with the provisions of the EC Construction Products Directive: Shower enclosures – Functional requirements and test methods.

The complete enclosure (incorporating all glass and hinge components) is subjected to stringent testing procedures before the standard is reached, rather than just the fittings in isolation. All GRAL shower enclosures were successfully tested, positioning DORMA as a true system supplier of shower enclosures – for use in applications such as private housing; offices; hospitals and hotels – as opposed to simply a fittings supplier, complimenting the current range of fittings already available. It also entitles DORMA to apply CE marking to all shower system packaging.

The test carried out on the shower systems included characteristics such as ease of cleaning; the ability to withstand chemicals, stains and wet and dry recycling; impact resistance and shatter properties of the glass, corrosion resistance and general endurance and stability.

The Gral shower system door and enclosure range is available in quadrant, pentangle and flat hinged door styles, designed to provide a solution for practically any situation. It offers folding, sliding and swing door options, and incorporates characteristically slim fittings in a wide range of styles and finishes. Curved or angled glass door leaves are also included in the offering within the round and pentagular shower sets.
