Materials
With our products we want to ensure that the water we use is safe and not impaired by chemical substances. As a result, HANSA products do not contain any materials classified as hazardous. Since May 2016, HANSA has finished with the necessary material changes to ensure that all HANSA products will be manufactured according to the 4MS Common Composition List, where metallic materials suitable for drinking water use are listed for EU countries. Moreover, HANSA is committed to use materials that comply with quality regulations and satisfy the evaluation criteria of all our market areas.
The pressurized faucet parts are always made of dezincification resistant brass. In addition, plastic and composite offers greater comfort especially in bath and shower faucets. One of the advantages is that it prevents the faucet surface from heating up. Special high-quality technical plastics are selected with utmost care and our products are long lasting and safe to use in a wide range of applications.
