CeramicPlus

Villeroy & Boch has succeeded in improving the properties of ceramics. A special process gives the CeramicPlus surface a permanent high quality finish. The advantage: CeramicPlus offers optimum hygiene and is kind both to the environment and the wallet. CeramicPlus is available exclusively from Villeroy & Boch.

The water forms droplets on the CeramicPlus surface. These flow off into the outlet, taking residues, such as limescale and dirt, with them.

FAQs

Why are CeramicPlus products particularly easy to care for?

Because they undergo a special production process which provides them with such a smooth surface that particles of dirt can hardly get a hold and are simply rinsed away. If any dirt does happen to remain behind, it's not a problem because ceramicplus is much easier to clean.

What does the everyday care of CeramicPlus involve?

The most suitable things for caring regularly for CeramicPlus are a standard all-purpose cleaner and a kitchen sponge with a soft or rough surface. Scouring powder or rough sponges should be avoided as this may adversely affect the surface if used over any length of time. This prevents the dirt from simply running off with the water.

How can you recognise sanitary ware ceramics with CeramicPlus?

All CeramicPlus products (for the UK: except the semi-recessed and Evana washbasins) bear a "Cplus" logo. On some products the name and logo are combined: a capital C with the addition "CeramicPlus Villeroy & Boch".

CeramicPlus is available for all current ceramic models and colours in the price list in force at the time.
