GROHE Cradle to cradle stands for continuous material cycles. The product is manufactured in such a way that, at the end of its life, the components can be used to create new products. Since the building sector accounts for more than 50 percent of the worldwide material consumption, the rejection of the linear model towards a circular economy is essential to stop the exploitation of natural resources. Next to t e Cradle to Cradle certification, GROHE BauEdge and GROHE Eurosmart are enhanced with SilkMove ES technology. It reduces the use of hot water by supplying only cold water with the faucet lever in the middle position which helps to reduce a building’s carbon footprint.
