Is matte black the new “it” tap?

A trend that doesn’t seem to be going anywhere, black interior wares can be used to create a real impact, especially in the bathroom.

Smart, sophisticated and always stylish, Tradelink have responded to this trend by introducing the Phoenix collection of quality basin and shower tapware plus matching accessories, all in beautiful matte black.

The obvious and perfect partner for monochromatic and all-white bathrooms, black can also be used to create bold decoration and a deep sense of luxe when paired with metallics such as silver, copper or bronze or with stones and textured neutrals. It also looks striking in a contemporary setting as well as a more traditional bathroom (teamed with a black claw foot bath for example).

The collection of shower, basin and bath tapware comprises of the Vivid Slimline wall mount bath set, bath outlet and shower mixer – each with a beautifully slender, elegant profile, which are complemented by a six star WELS rated basin mixer (just 4.5 litres of water a minute). For those preferring a more cubist approach there’s also the Rush wall top assemblies and the minimalist wall mount shower mixer.

Accessories are also prevalent, with towel rails (single and double), soap dishes, shelves, toilet roll holders and robe hooks – all with similar profiles that complement the tapware.

The Phoenix collection is available from all Tradelink branches nationally. For details on local branches visit their website.
