INTERVIEW WITH LECICO Q&A
All panels are 100% circular, with transparent sustainability data. Every layer is made from PET with no metals, glass-fibres, or wood. This means that the complex and costly process of separating and sorting can be eliminated from recycling. Damaged panels, cut-offs and even milling dust can be recycled, delivering a fully circular solution.
The benefits of REPEAT Materials® products include:
• Reduced installation costs • Simple customisation
• Easy handling as the products are lightweight • The ranges are also strong, waterproof, lightweight, and dimensionally stable meaning they are anti-vandal and impact resistant.
REPEAT Materials® proudly holds an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) to back its green credentials. The EPD gives credible insights into the sustainability of our products. It’s the result of rigorous life cycle assessments (LCA) conducted by independent experts, ensuring you can rely on the environmental claims we make.
In partnership with REPEAT Materials® we aim to transform the outdated “take-make-use- dispose” nature of construction materials usage and transform this into a journey of “recycle-use-repeat.”
Matt: What nods to water saving technologies can you tell us about? Antony: Our drive to develop and evolve our range of solutions for a more sustainable future provides additional meaning to the work we do. Our technical innovations and partnerships have seen us launch award winning and
groundbreaking new sustainable bathroom solutions that will contribute to tackling climate change and manage our scarce water supply more effectively in the future.
One of the more interesting new innovations being launched at the Installer Show is another exclusive to Lecico Bathrooms. We are bringing to market a range of leak free syphon technology, low flush WCs - Powered by Quantum® Technology from Thomas Dudley. Leaking toilets can waste between 215 and 400 litres of clean drinking water on average every day. Between 5 and 8% of toilets in the UK are leaking, mostly dual flush toilets. A principal cause of a leaking toilet is a faulty button operated flush valve. Syphons cannot leak when they fail, however syphons traditionally use lever control which is seen as outdated.
The solution is a syphon operated cistern, actuated with a push button, a product that has no joint beneath the waterline, that lifts water up. Quantum® Technology delivers a leak free syphon, and a low flush (4L), which is operated using a push button. Our range of Quantum® Technology WCs are available to view on our stand at the Installer Show.
Matt: Can you also share with us any information about Lecico’s design-led ranges? Antony: The Design Series from Lecico Bathrooms consists of families of bathroom solutions to suit all tastes and budgets, from contemporary to classic. As well as ceramics, this series offers high quality pre-built furniture, brassware, baths, and shower trays and enclosures for any design conscious installation of bathroom products – at an affordable price. New to Design Series in 2024 is Layla short projection furniture in beautiful colours including Ice Blue and Leaf Green. In addition, we are launching a new range called Shani which boasts a wide range of square and round designs and comfort height WC’s. We are also complementing our existing Zara range with a new range of round sanitaryware. Together this increases style and design options in our Design Series range, and we very much look forward to showcasing the new products at the Installer Show.
Matt: What are the company’s goals for the rest of 2024? Antony: Many brands talk about value. But few deliver value like Lecico Bathrooms. And when we say value, we mean so much more than a very attractive price. We mean quality, design, water efficiency, reliability, service, warranty, support… all the things you actually buy when you think you’re just buying a product. Our culture is what sets us apart, every single person working for Lecico Bathrooms has a clear purpose – to deliver the best possible products and service to our customers. That remains our consistent goal, not just for 2024, but into the future.
