Established in the 1980s, wedi as the pioneer of the XPS industry has developed many ingenious product innovations that have revolutionised the construction industry.
As a certified EcoProfit operation for over 15 years, wedi’s mission is to support the industry improve its carbon credentials and to help consumers recognise the added value of having a ‘green’ home with lower energy bills. Manufactured with at least 25% recycled foam material and 100% renewable energy, wedi XPS products have their own Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) confirming their environmental footprint throughout their lifecycle and wedi Top design surfaces, made entirely of recycled materials, are fully recyclable at the end of their life making sustainable bathroom construction all the more easier.
2023 marks not only the 40th anniversary of the brand’s foundation, but also several clever product introductions to the market – new solutions further simplify and speed up the installation process whilst offering a timeless look and longevity in bathroom design.
Fixed or free standing wall - full of technology, free of water
The new Sanwell shower wall module with its factory-integrated, hot and cold-water pipes, Hansgrohe iBox and reinforcements for the shower outlets, eliminates risky installation steps and saves time on the construction site.
- the integrated Hansgrohe iBox allows for 200+ thermostatic mixer designs
- the module can be used as a fixed wall or as a free-standing partition
- after simple set up and connection it is ready to be directly tiled
- with all integrated components sealed, it is 100% waterproof
- available with a thickness of 80 or 100mm and with or without an integrated niche
- included technical components can be placed individually at the appropriate height
- the height (2500mm) and width (900 or 1200mm) of the module can be simply adjusted on site
High degree of prefabrication can save enormous amount of time on the construction site whilst due to the reduction of interfaces between different trades, achieves the highest level of system security providing peace of mind for both the contractor and the client.
Functionality paired with security – 2 products, 1 system
The brand new member of the Fundo range, the Fundo Ligno Plus, with its outer edge thickness of just 23mm, is made for timber floor applications. Fitted with a support plate to account for the fall in the gradient, it provides unrivalled peace of mind about the ever moving moisture sensitive timber floor.
- sits flush with the existing wooden substrate
- with 360° dry-fit drain technology & support plate
- features an integrated 4-sided precise gradient
- matching, one-piece design surface in 5 colours
Opting for the seamless Fundo Top surface instead of tiles provides further assurances for wet rooms on timber. Its grout free design makes it easy to maintain and coupled with its antibacterial finish, it promotes utmost hygiene. Furthermore, thanks to the low heat-conductivity of the material, it is not only warm to touch but keeps surface condensation to the very minimum for a comfortable and safe shower experience.
