Icon, Solo, Eco: Icons of sustainability for shower lovers

The new GROHE Rainshower® collection

Here are three new “it” items which are bound to impress and inspire their users by virtue of their smart design and excellent functionality - three favourites which add a “green” touch to the daily shower experience. Introducing the new Icon, Solo and Eco hand showers, the next generation of the GROHE Rainshower® family.

The three new family members are extremely attractive and appealing. You see them, you want them. And once you own them, you will never give them away. That’s because Rainshower® Icon, Solo and Eco are the new objects of desire, products that are so beautiful you instantly fall in love with them. Extra flat, with a fresh green spray face and a Moon White handle, the new Rainshower®s are sure to impress. Their sleek shapes are based on the three elements of the GROHE Design DNA - the ring, the lozenge and the 7° angle - for a modern and unmistakably GROHE look.

The design of the three showers is certainly the first to catch the eye. Whether it’s halo-shaped, circular or oval – these new star performers are sure to attract attention in the bathroom. Unique eye-catchers offering unparalleled functionality. The GROHE Rainshower® range has the right new product for every taste. Colourful and with a unique design, the three showers are an exercise in originality. They are full of surprises, joie-de-vivre and creativity. A completely new way to enjoy water.

Tremendous trio

Rainshower® Icon is the ultimate style statement, the icon of a new generation of showers, which appeals to design disciples around the world. Its halo-shaped shower head is not only a new concept in bathroom style but also allows the shower to be hung up on a dedicated wall holder. It goes without saying that the unique shape does not compromise the showering comfort at all; all nozzles are adjusted in such a way that they produce the perfect rain shower. The laws of shower design have never been challenged in finer style.

Rainshower® Solo is just as special and unique. Its large spray face is synonymous with maximum showering enjoyment. Fresh colours, luxurious spray pattern. Modern showering pleasure with that special something - the hand shower against boredom.

Who says that the head of a hand shower has to be round? Rainshower® Eco has an oval shape. This shower has been designed to match the shape of the human body, which, seen from above, is oval. The result is the ideal spray pattern. Smaller surface, fewer nozzles – less fun? Not so with GROHE. The full showering pleasure is guaranteed. Rainshower® Eco: a shower that looks different. A shower that is a pleasure to handle. A shower that uses water extremely efficiently.

The green idea

Environmental awareness and efficiency are hallmarks not only of Rainshower® Eco but also of the other members of the new Rainshower® generation. All members of the GROHE EcoJoy™ product range guarantee the sparing use of water and energy, while at the same time being quick and easy to use. Rainshower® Icon, Solo and Eco feature the unique GROHE EcoButton. This specially coloured button on the shower handle allows water consumption to be reduced significantly, without blocking part of the nozzles and without compromising on the fun – a “must have” for all who think green.

All showers feature GROHE DreamSpray® technology which ensures the even distribution of water to all nozzles for perfect spray patterns and maximum showering pleasure. It is not without reason that Rainshower® Icon, Solo and Eco spearhead a new generation of different and superior showers. Benefiting from the constant evolution of GROHE’s innovative and advanced technologies, their optimised rain spray guarantees ultimate pleasure from the very first drop. An intensive shower experience that helps save resources – a smart, responsible and sustainable choice.

This tremendous trio will appeal to design lovers all over the world. Rainshower® Icon, Solo and Eco add new features and bold colours to the extensive Rainshower® range. All those who like it a bit more discreet will appreciate the fact that the three models are also available in chrome with a grey spray face.
