Smart and intuitive GROHE SmartControl is packed with German technology and manufactured to the very highest standards of German workmanship, as encapsulated in the label "Made in Germany".

For a truly personalized shower experience that pampers the whole body, the generously dimensioned GROHE Rainshower 360 Duo head shower combines the gentle GROHE PureRain or GROHE Rain O2 spray with the energizing TrioMassage setting.

Cosmopolitan design, now even smaller: GROHE flush plates A particularly aesthetic solution now comes in the form of the new GROHE flush plates, with their small size and flat design. Available in all shapes, from square to round and lozenge, they ensure a coordinated style by echoing the design language of the manufacturer's faucets and showers.
