The brand new Twinline 2 is the culmination of ongoing development by Austrian manufacturer Artweger, whose shower-bath concept has attracted many imitators in recent years. Eurocare Sales and Marketing Manager Joanna Talbot commented: “A big part of Twinline’s appeal is its ability to offer the best of both worlds, by combining a bath and shower in one. With extra compact dimensions and contemporary design at its core, this winning combination makes Twinline 2 even more appealing to a greater number of people.” With a reduced threshold, the new model features a deeper tub and a straight glass door allowing the bath to squeeze into the smallest of spaces. Simple to use, the shower door is operated from standing and a specialised coating provides additional grip. The waste is activated by a mechanical locking mechanism, making it easier and cheaper to install. For further information 01302 788684 or email

second being technical advancements which increase the scope of what’s possible in special effects. Recent advancements include metallic glazes, raised prints, sparkle effects all of which play with light and surface reflection giving shimmering, sparkling finishes which seem to change within different lighting conditions. Fashion often dictates the way in which tiles are used; currently vertical features and panels are replacing the traditional horizontal border. Full tile decors are used to striking effect and mosaics are a popular decorative feature, often within a panel or defined area such as a shower cubicle. Whites are probably the most popular option as they can be accessorised by accents in any choice of colour; just change the towels for a new look! New effects include textured tiles with combinations of prints, offering Damasks, printed mosaics and other interesting optical effects. For further information telephone 0845 5048923 or visit

range of thermostatic shower mixers is independently tested and certified by BuildCert to the stringent NHS Model Engineering Specification D08/TMV3, and offers many safety and water efficiency benefits. Smooth operation and comfort is ensured by the easy-to-use control knobs, separate on/off and temperature control and progressive temperature adjustment, which re-opens at the last temperature setting. With a three-year warranty against manufacturing defects, the Securitherm TMV3 shower valve enables the temperature to be adjusted from 20 to 41°C (maximum). Automatic anti-scalding safety is ensured as the hot water supply shuts off in the event of cold water supply failure, while smooth internals reduce the possibility of bio-film development. The controlled flow-rate system with integrated flow-rate limiter at 12 lpm enables around 40 per cent water savings, and water wastage is prevented as users can select the most appropriate comfort temperature for their needs.
