GROHE Quality

Designed and engineered in Germany, we craft high quality bathroom solutions with exceptional fit, feel, and finish, delivering GROHE quality that ensures lasting pure joy of water.

GROHE Quality is an experience

From the first design sketch to the final product, quality is embedded in every step of our process. It’s in the precision of our engineering, the durability of our materials, and the reliability of our technologies. It’s what ensures that every touch, every turn, and every drop of water delivers this specific GROHE fit, feel and finish.

How we ensure long-lasting water enjoyment

The journey to high quality bathroom fittings starts with thorough testing in our own research & development laboratory in Hemer, Germany.

Tested for life

GROHE cartridges are tested with up to 220,000 load cycles, corresponding to a simulated service life of up to 15 years in a 4-person household. This not only guarantees durability in our high quality taps but also ensures that every interaction remains as smooth and precise as on day one.

Water testing at a swimming pool for GROHE tap precision

With highest precision

In leaching tests, water flowing through a GROHE tap is checked for two-thirds of the elements in the periodic table. The testing precision is 1 in 10,000,000,000 – equivalent to a 3-gram sugar cube dissolved in the water volume of 1,200 Olympic swimming pools.

And unmatched accuracy

The ceramic discs of cartridges form the heart of all GROHE single-lever mixers. The surface of these ceramic discs must be 250 times smoother than a glass bead. The evenness and structure of the surface are scanned three-dimensionally using an X-ray laser.

GROHE product tested under extreme temperature conditions

Built to last

The surfaces of our GROHE products are rigorously tested to withstand even the harshest conditions – including repeated temperature changes of up to 70 degrees Celsius.

Unstoppable durability

GROHE hand showers with the ShockProof feature would withstand a fall from a height of 2 metres without any functional impairment, proving they’re a high quality bathroom solution.

Supreme reliability

The tightness of GROHE cartridges is tested at up to 50 bar. This means they can withstand water pressure at a depth of 500m. The world record for a scuba diver is 332m.

What makes us GROHE

Quality, Technology, Design and Sustainability. These four pillars are the foundation of every GROHE product and every GROHE experience. They are the heartbeat behind GROHE’s promise of Pure Joy of Water.
