The Importance of Quality and Durability in Bathroom Sanitaryware

The Importance of Quality and Durability in Bathroom Sanitaryware

After 27 years in the bathroom industry, Lecico has learned that beautiful design is only the beginning. For architects, property developers, and interior designers, the true test of any specification is how well it performs ten, fifteen, or even twenty years after project completion—long after the handover photographs have been taken.

In large-scale developments, boutique residences, schools, hospitals, or hospitality spaces, the choice of sanitaryware influences far more than aesthetics. It affects lifecycle costs, client satisfaction, maintenance budgets, and ultimately, professional reputation.

Why Quality Matters Beyond the Showroom

On the surface, two toilets or basins may appear nearly identical. The real difference lies in how they are made and how they age.

High-quality vitreous china that is germ- and scratch-resistant is far less likely to stain, crack, or dull over time. This results in fewer complaints, fewer replacements, and fewer site call-backs.

Durability becomes especially crucial in high-traffic environments such as:

  • Schools and public buildings, where fixtures endure constant daily use

  • Healthcare and assisted-mobility spaces, where hygiene, safety, and reliability are essential

  • Commercial and hospitality projects, where even small failures can disrupt operations and impact guest experience

In these settings, the principle of “cheap now, pay later” is a genuine risk. Premature product failure can compromise both design intent and client trust.

How Lecico Designs for Long-Term Performance

Lecico manufactures its ceramics in line with international best practices and supports them with structured warranties. This offers specifiers and clients tangible reassurance that they are investing in fixtures designed for long-term performance—not just for the project launch.

Over nearly three decades, the company has developed a portfolio that performs across both large-scale and smaller projects. From wall-hung pans—compatible with Lecico’s concealed cisterns and actuator plates in white, chrome, and black, as well as Glass Actuator plates in white, red, and black—to back-to-wall toilets, contemporary basins, and bathroom cabinets, each product is designed with durability, easy maintenance, and long-term reliability in mind.

Whether the project calls for high-traffic commercial solutions or stylish, functional bathrooms in residential developments, Lecico offers products that meet diverse needs without compromising on quality.

Specifying With Confidence

As Lecico marks 27 years in the industry, its goal remains simple: to give specifiers peace of mind with every project. Quality and durability in sanitaryware are not optional extras; they are essential foundations for lower lifecycle costs, fewer disruptions, and improved user satisfaction.

When reviewing sanitaryware options, professionals are encouraged to consider not only how a fixture looks in a 3D render but how it will perform in year ten. That is where quality, durability, and the right manufacturing partner make all the difference.

Lecico’s team is ready to assist with selecting the ideal products for upcoming projects—helping ensure that every specification is built to last.
