SHOW REVIEW | kbb Birmingham 2020
CDA | New oven range
CDA showcased a number of new products, including its award-winning 300mm integrated wine cooler and its new and improved range of large ovens. The new collection of 77-litre single ovens have been upgraded with new features and aesthetics. As well as a number of additional features, including rapid preheat, timer settings, preset recipes, pyrolyitc cleaning and steam cleaning options, models in the range also benefit from a simple, touch-screen user interface. The SL670 model (picturd) is CDA’s first oven with full steam functionality.
INSINKERATOR | NeoChiller
The new NeoChiller from Insinkerator can dispense up to seven litres of chilled water – between 3°C and 10°C – per hour. The water can also be hooked up to the filter system to remove impurities from the water. The 4-in-1 touch tap produces steaming hot water, regular cold and hot water as well as chilled water. The chiller unit can be installed in a cabinet below the sink. Insinkerator also previewed the Modern 3010 and 3020, which is a smaller steaming hot water tap that is created to be an addition to its regular tap range. The new taps come in six colours.
RAK CERAMICS | RAK-Feeling
Colour was a big story at this year’s kbb Birmingham show and one that was prevalent on the RAK Ceramics stand with the launch of its RAK-Feeling collection. This complete collection of shower trays, enclosures and valves, washbasins, brassware, WCs and bidets are available in a range of coordinated colours. Alongside matt white, products are available in matt greige, matt cappuccino, matt grey and matt black finishes, in a bid to give designers and consumers freedom to express themselves by adding flair and personality to their space.
SHOWERWALL | New colours
Showerwall has added 26 new colours and designs to its portfolio. The new colours are split into 10 different trends: retro, metallic, terrazzo, botanical, classic marble, striking marble, industrial, geometric, blush, and pastels. The range comprises multiple bold Showerwall decors, including a Flamingo or Vintage Birds acrylic, to more subtle natural colours like black marble and stone colours like Moonstone. There are softer colours too, such as Pink Blush, which is also available with a faux brick pattern, or a soft sage and sky blue colour.

MEREWAY | Q-Line
Sharing its stand with the KBSA, Mereway launched its new Q-Line handleless kitchen. This made-to- order system combines a range of styles that can be mixed to create a sleek, contemporary kitchen and give complete design flexibility. Featuring a low-level plinth line and two different handleless base unit designs, the Q-Line concept also offers Mereway customers the opportunity to work with new materials, including glass and ceramic. This premium range also features drawer and wall units in a choice of three widths.
PERRIN AND ROWE | Armstrong taps
The Armstrong taps unveiled at the show were said to be Perrin and Rowe’s first major kitchen launch in four years. It is billed as a ‘strikingly modern take’ on the heritage brassware look with a strong hint of the industrial. Armstrong is offered in eight finishes, from hand-polished chrome to aged brass, satin brass to 24-carat gold-plated. The range includes a bridge mixer with pull-down rinse and a quarter-turn ceramic disc valve. There is also a single-lever with pull-down rinse with a solid smooth-surface brass lever or a more industrial-looking knurled grip.
