About HD Diamond Series Douchecabine

Book Text: De HD Diamond Series is een reeks douchecabines ontworpen voor minimalistische badkamers. De serie maakt gebruik van een 6mm H-vormig ultrasmal frame, gebaseerd op een gelaagd glasprincipe waarbij twee lagen glas van 5mm ten opzichte van elkaar verschoven zijn. Het rechthoekige frame is aan de voorzijde slechts 10mm breed, overeenkomstig met de dikte van het glas. Het deurframe is afgedicht met een metaalomhulde siliconenstrip voor optimale luchtdichtheid en kleurharmonie met het metaal. Een demperbuffer zorgt voor een geruisloze sluiting, en een metalen terugvoerkanaal aan de onderzijde leidt het water terug naar de douchezone.
