Tapitalia: Giving Shape to Water

In the world of interior design and home improvement, it’s often the smallest details that make the biggest difference. One such detail, often overlooked but undeniably crucial, is the humble tap. Tapitalia was established in 1993 with the view of providing the South African market access to top-quality, unique Italian taps at competitive prices. Today Tapitalia offers a life-time warranty on all taps.

Over the many years, Tapitalia ranges have expanded and diversified, and currently, they offer over 50 ranges of taps at various price levels, including high-design, premium ranges as well as aggressively priced collections to meet the demanding project sector. They also offer extensive and unique ranges of sanitaryware, baths, showers and bathroom accessories, as well as an extraordinary collection of Italian made, customisable vanities.

Whether you’re renovating a kitchen, updating a bathroom, or simply seeking to elevate the aesthetics and functionality of your space, the choice of tap can significantly impact the overall look and feel of your home. With a commitment to excellence and a dedication to bringing the best to market, Tapitalia has become synonymous with top-tier taps that combine form and function seamlessly.

Join us as we explore some of the quality taps and brands they have to offer…

Watertube

Simple, classic, copper water pipes inspire a designer tap. Massimiliano Braconi, the designer behind the new Watertube addition to the Tapitalia range, explains the inspiration that gave him the idea, a sort of search for a primitive essence. The same pure, clean lines of the classic public fountains we used to find in the town square, from which the water flowed through a simple copper pipe, designed to slot seamlessly into a contemporary, industrial-style bathroom.

Watertube is a complete collection of steel taps, with a distinctive, carefully studied, innovative design. The simple, rounded lines, reminiscent of a regular water pipe, are the ideal choice for those seeking a designer look with a distinctive style and plenty of character.

5mm collection

The 5mm Tap Collection is simple yet refined with sophisticated lines for one of the most exclusive, award-winning collections imported by Tapitalia. The 5mm design perfectly embodies the essence of the technology that made it possible: five millimetres is the thickness of the entire pipe the water passes through until it reaches the spout after it has been mixed.

The use of a single thickness for all the elements that make up the tap, for the control levers and all the other applications in the series, make the 5mm design exquisitely light and delicate.

T30

Tapitalia’s T30 collection, designed by Giampiero Castagnoli and Marco Pisati, is a collection of brass mixer taps with elegant, minimalist lines. The perfectly balanced, rigorous shape makes the supremely functional, reliable T30 model suitable for any bathroom environment.

T30 boasts a beautifully light, sophisticated, circular silhouette, thanks to the minimal size of the sections. This effect has been obtained thanks to the 22 mm diameter of the smallest brass cartridge on the market, together with an innovative Neoperl aereator with a diameter of just 13.5 mm.

The signature feature of T30 is the mixing control, also available with an elegant, milled texture, both stylish and practical, for improved grip.

Energy

The ENERGY collection of single-lever mixers is a versatile and modern tap solution. The modern design of ENERGY harmoniously combines soft radii with flat and profiled surfaces. The casting of the brass body includes the shape of the aerator which thus disappears inside without interrupting the visual continuity of the mixer.

The true beauty of ENERGY lies in its accessibility at a price point that is very competitive.

Tapitalia ranges are available in a wide range of finishes, so be sure to check them out and pick an option to suit your style.
