 | | ‘SMALL HINGE OPENS BIG CONVERSATIONS FOR CARRARA & MATTA AT KBB 2006’ | | | Carrara & Matta | | 05/10/2006 | | |
A small hinge fitted to a range of toilet seats made by Carrara & Matta created surprising levels of interest among visitors to their stand at the KBB 2006 show, held in January at the NEC.
In spite of the number of eye-catching products that were on display within their stand, Carrara & Matta were hugely impressed by the number of questions they were asked about the state-of-the-art 'Silentium' technology that is employed in the toilet seat hinge that operates the range of slow-close seats which they manufacture and distribute as the 'Nord Silentium.'.
The hinging mechanism that creates a braking effect as a toilet seat closes under its own weight, after little more than a nudge whilst in the raised position, has been the outcome of many years of research and development, and has been tested to withstand the equivalent of many years of use by a typical family. It may also make a contribution to domestic harmony in many homes, where the correct resting place of the toilet seat after use has been a point of disagreement between men and women.
Carrara & Matta believe that the technology involved in their hinge is the best in the market, and what intrigued visitors to the stand was how such a highly sophisticated mechanism was capable of being concealed within such an unobtrusive hinge.
In addition, Carrara & Matta's toilet seats have been designed to meet their 'Hygienic-plus' concept. Smooth, low-rise buffers on the underside of the seat offer the easiest of wiping, having no niches or corners where bacteria can accumulate. The material used in the construction of their seats also meets the Hygienic-plus specification, as the composition manifests significant anti-bacterial properties, further improving hygiene in the home.
Other products that created interest were a new range of bathroom accessories, the Fard Elite and Atelier ranges, and an attractive range of decorative toilet seats the Gallery range, that have proved popular in Europe.
