Brass vs. Stainless Steel: Durability Comparison in Taps

Our bathroom sink mixer taps are constructed with an array of only the best quality materials that are tested to withstand the rigours of everyday usage without suffering deformations or deterioration even with factors like high temperature or moisture exposure. Brass and stainless steel taps possess antimicrobial properties and are non-porous and resistant to bacterial growth which makes these suitable for tapware products for your bathrooms and kitchens. Both materials are also known for their solid craftsmanship with a high tolerance to rusting and oxidation, remaining with a pristine charm even with years of use.

Brass wash basin taps are highly suited for humid bathroom environments which grants them a high resistance to rust and corrosion. While brass taps may require occasional polishing to maintain their shine, they are relatively low-maintenance and can last for many years with proper care. It is an eco-friendly choice as brass is a highly recyclable material. The second type of tap features a stainless steel construction known for its resilience to scratches, fingerprints and tarnishing. This is a 100% recyclable material that enables you to reduce your carbon footprint, allowing you to make a conscious effort towards sustainability. 

Modern and Traditional Basin Taps: A Fusion of Style and Functionality

Understanding the difference between modern and traditional basin taps lies largely in their aesthetic value. Both are embalmed with only the best quality functionality and serve as high-tech solutions for any home. A defining feature of the contemporary range is its sleek, minimal lines that move away from ornate detailing. Modern structures are defined by the straight, fixed or swivel spouts. While the straight design bends with a slight curve towards the spout’s base, the swivel style allows suitability for both single and double wash basin units. Handles range from single to dual controls with stunning round styles or levers that offer comfortable usability. A selection of these taps are adorned with water-saving technology powered by a sensor-motion property. The modern basin taps also incorporate water-saving features such as aerators or flow restrictors.

A traditional basin mixer tap has more ornate detailing like intricate crosshead and white/black lever handles that complements the equally embellished long-nose, knob, swan neck and arched designs. This design ranges from single to triple tap holes and offers utility with single or dual controls. These taps evoke a sense of nostalgia and old-world charm, adding character to any bathroom space. Installation is a convenient task with both selections with minimal maintenance requirements that make this ideal for your homes!

To further improve the functionality of your taps more efficiently, you can invest in our assortment of basin tap and waste combinations. A proper drainage system can drastically improve the practicality of your space by allowing smooth disposal of wastewater while also preventing unwanted drain odour and gases from ruining the ambience of your bathrooms. Our assortment is diversified in various shades and finishes to match your selection of basin and bath taps, making them ideal embellishments for your home.

Variety of Colors and Finishes: Exploring Options for Basin Taps

Crafted with the best-quality brass and stainless materials, the bathroom sink tap selection is further improved in durability by the thick coating of finishes and a rich allure of colours. Offering a diverse palette for bathroom elegance, these taps are key design elements that contribute to the overall aesthetic of the space. Serving with timeless elegance, bronze taps have a warm, earthy tone and often feature antique finishes with subtle patinas and textured surfaces to create an authentic vintage look. Warm tones are also offered by the gold range that invites opulence and luxury. Rose gold has a rich rosy hue that gives the feel of romance and elegance, providing a subtle and soft touch to your space.

A black basin mixer tap creates a dramatic focal point and provides a bold contrast against light-coloured basins and tiles, adding depth and visual interest to the bathroom. Chrome taps are timeless and add a sense of freshness and cleanliness to the bathroom for a bright and inviting look. Tapron’s assortment of tapware is typically coated with a durable finish that is resistant to scratches, tarnishing, and corrosion. This makes them easy to clean and maintain, requiring only a gentle wipe with a damp cloth to restore their shine and lustre.

Marked with a durable coating, the bathroom basin mixer taps are offered in radiant brushed, matt and polished finishes. Brushed finishes feature a textured surface created by fine brushing or sanding, resulting in a soft, satin-like appearance. It is characterised by subtle striations and a muted sheen, offering a sophisticated and understated elegance. With a more glossy surface, polished finishes offer a more reflective surface for a bright and luxurious appearance while the matt finish is defined by a flat or non-reflective surface that absorbs light rather than reflecting it, creating a soft and velvety appearance. They add a sense of understated elegance to the bathroom, creating a calm and tranquil atmosphere.

Exploring Different Mounting Options for Basin Taps

Basin sink taps are offered in the two common mounting options of wall-mounted and deck-mounted designs. Deck structures are installed directly on the basin or countertop surface with a simpler installation manual as compared to wall designs. It requires users to drill the number of holes required without posing alterations to the wall’s plumbing. The structure ranges from Monobloc styles to up to 3-hole designs enabling homeowners to choose as per requirements. Best served paired with a counter top wash basin, you can easily navigate between your choice of colours and finishes from our diverse assortment.

With both categories available in sleek square and cylindrical outlines, an added benefit is the wall mounted basin tap height adjustability. Unlike deck designs, these taps can be installed at any height on the wall as required and space demands, catering to the needs of a vast expanse of users. It can be fixed directly onto the wall behind the sink and provide a neat look by concealing the pipework behind the walls. To make installation more convenient, these designs are structured with circular and rectangular base plates and offer diversity from single to three tap holes.

Three-Hole Basin Taps: Classic Elegance with Traditional Installation

As the name suggests, the 3 hole basin mixer tap is designed with three separate structures –two handles to navigate flow and temperature and a central spout that features a square or round structure. Each handle corresponds to a specific water supply line (hot or cold), allowing users to control the temperature and flow of water independently. Available in both modern and vintage elements, these taps are characterised by stunning handles and spout designs that make your basin space stand out with extravagance. The versatile compatibility to a three pre-drilled holes pedestal sink, vanity unit and countertop basin makes these flexible choices, though it is important to consider the spacing and sizing of these holes to match the product’s specification.  

The handles of the 3 tap hole basin mixer are usually mounted on either side, with the spout centred between them. Proper spacing and alignment of the holes are essential for a secure and aesthetically pleasing installation. Additional factors to consider while investing in this range of tapware include the depth of your basin and determining whether there is an ample amount of clearance needed for the handles to operate smoothly. Water pressure requirements vary from product to product, which is another essential factor to reconsider!

Additional Features in Basin Taps: Enhancing Functionality and Style

Each of our taps for bathroom sinks features an advanced ceramic disc technology that ensures enhanced performance, durability, and longevity compared to traditional rubber washer systems. This innovative technology provides two ceramic discs where one moves against a stationary one to provide a path for water to flow from within the tap. With a high resistance and durability to degradation, the discs provide for fewer leaks and drips, drastically minimising water wastage and maintenance requirements. Another key benefit of ceramic disc technology is its smooth and precise operation while eliminating risks of mineral buildup and corrosion, making these taps ideal for areas with hard water.

Tapron’s bath and basin taps are also powered with an aerator technology which is a key feature in enabling a soft and pleasant water flow. These aerators work by mixing air with water flow which results in a steady stream of water that feels softer and more gentle. However, this does not compromise water pressure but rather conserves water by maintaining sufficient pressure for everyday tasks and aids in preventing unwanted splashing around the sink area. Designed with a fine mesh screen, these tiny aerators trap particles and debris to remove impurities from water ensuring a cleaner, purer water.

Why do you need a basin waste? Getting unslotted or slotted basin waste depends on whether or not your sink has an overflow. Slotted designs are ideal for sinks with an overflow while in the absence of this, unslotted designs are required. These minor fittings are offered in a diverse range of colours and finishes marked with durability and range from designs like the click-clack, fliptop and free-flow structures. Basin wastes serve the primary function of allowing water to drain from the sink while preventing large debris, such as food scraps or hair, from entering the plumbing system. They consist of a plug or stopper mechanism that can be opened or closed to control the flow of water.
