User-friendliness 1 2 Content What makes us unique? 4 – 15 User-friendliness Smart Water Ecology Hygiene Safety Luxury Your Oras Experience is in good hands In the Kitchen 19 – 25 In the Bathroom 27 – 43 Origin 44 – 45 Products 46 – 56 Questions? 57 – 58 3 4 User-friendliness Every Oras faucet is designed to make your life easier. This is how we define user-friendliness. This is what makes Oras unique. This is what should be the first thought you have after using any Oras product. This is our promise. In the following pages, you will see symbols and themes that take you to finer dimensions of user-friendliness. They are features that can be found in all our products – and that we truly emphasize in some of them. By marking them with a symbol. To help you browse through our product families and find exactly what you want. Welcome to user-friendliness. Welcome to the Oras Experience. 5 6 Smart Water It’s time to be smart about water. Smarter than ever before. The fact that Oras is the world’s leading developer and manufacturer of electronic faucets enables us to say that we are approaching a new era of enjoying water – while saving it. The ease and hygiene of using our touchless faucets is just the beginning: our new Oras Eterna can actually show the ideal duration of a shower. With Oras, however, electronic does not equal smart alone. Functionality and innovation are present in endless details, defying conventional thinking and giving you the most user-friendly experience a faucet can give. Smart can be seen in easy installation, safety, usability and reliability; in faucets, shower sets and accessories across our range. Yet, while every Oras product is user-friendly, ecological and safe, if it’s touchless, electronic or exceptionally functional and innovative, it will be worthy of the symbol you see above. Smart. 7 8 Ecology Pure water is becoming a commodity we can seldom take for granted. And even if you live in a place where water is plenty and clean, you might be surprised to know that hot water can amount to more than a third of your household’s energy costs. This is why we create no technology without its foundation in ecology. Our first single-lever faucet, designed to save water and energy, was created in 1976. Ever since, we have wanted to lead the way in joining modern technology with green values. Proof of this can be experienced in even our most basic single-lever faucets equipped with eco-functions as well as in our sophisticated thermostats and in our electronic faucets. In its purest form, we label Ecology with a symbol – that you can find throughout our product families. 9 10 Safety You will not burn your fingers on the surface of an Oras faucet. Nor underneath one: even some of our basic faucets come with a safety-button that protects the smallest of hands from harm. Along with saving energy. Steady temperature is a crucial safety factor in the shower, too. And when you choose Oras touchless, it will be impossible to leave water running unattended. The same goes with Oras automatic dish-washer valves that close after the washing is done. This is why Oras is the choice of families with small children – and especially households with elderly or disabled people. In Europe, for instance, we already have more senior citizens than ever before. So, we dare proudly say that all our products are easy and safe to use. Always and for all. And especially so, when you see the symbol above. 11 12 Hygiene According to the World Health Organization (the WHO) there are thousands of diseases, from a common cold to more serious ones, that are spread by touch, and the number is increasing around the globe. That is why we design Hygiene into every form and function of our products – such as our Oras Bidetta hand showers for personal hygiene. And our touchless faucets, of course. They are easy, safe and comfortable to use without touching. Which also helps in keeping the home beautiful and tidy. That is why they deserve our special symbol for Hygiene. 13 14 Luxury Luxury is not just elegance or beauty. Luxury is also functionality that best enables you to enjoy water in your everyday life. Our design is born by need and then perfected into aesthetics. It means you can turn faucets on and off at the touch of a hand. Or without touching them at all. Luxury is water at just the temperature you require, without having to adjust it each time. Luxury is a faucet surface that never gets scalding hot or ice cold. In the hands of our internationally renowned designers, luxury sometimes reaches a peak that is simply impossible to resist. In pure form, amazing details or smoothness of flow. Or all of them. You will see a symbol then – if the faucet hasn’t blinded you. 15 Your Oras Experience is in good hands. Stefano Giovannoni Born in La Spezia in 1954, lives and works in Milan. Along with teaching and doing research, this highly awarded industrial designer, interior designer and architect has collaborated with companies like Alessi, Flos, Magis, Seiko, Kankyo, Inda, Laufen, Siemens and Oras. He has designed numerous commercially and critically acclaimed products such as “Il Bagno Alessi One” by Oras. His works are part of the permanent archive of Centre Georges Pompidou and of MOMA collection in New York. Alessandro Mendini Born in Milan in 1931. This highly esteemed architect has worked with international brands such as Alessi, Philips, Swarovski and Swatch. He works on products, furniture, interiors and installations. He is an honorary member of the Bezabel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem; has won the Compasso d’Oro Design Award, the Architectural League’s Award in New York and is a Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres in France. His works are on display in various museums and private collections. Wiel Arets Wiel Arets was born in Heerlen in 1955. In 1984, he set up the Wiel Arets Architect & Associates studio, then transferred to Maastricht in 1996. He is heavily involved in various teaching roles all over the world. His language is very simple, even austere, but softened by transparency, light and reflections thanks to a very sophisticated use of materials. 16 Jorma Vennola Industrial designer, born in 1943, has practiced industrial design in its various forms since the early 1970s. He started his career in the United States by designing children’s toys and glass items, continuing with glass, domestic appliances, packages of technical chemistry products and tractors. This acknowledged designer of high technology faucets started designing for Oras already in the 1970’s, creating numerous timeless classics along the way – and receiving wide recognition respectively. Kirsi Svärd One of the best known Finnish designers of the younger generation was born in 1961 in Tampere and graduated from the Kuopio Polytechnic, Art and Design in 1988 as an industrial designer. Along with practicing her skills in styling, design management, brand design and structural concepts, graphic design, model making and design analyses, Svärd has designed items from tiny pipettes to domestic appliances. Both Oras Vienda, Oras Cubista and the new and highly successful Oras Optima faucet range exhibit the Kirsi Svärd style. 17 18 In the Kitchen 19 Let’s clean up the kitchen. Take away everything except user-friendliness. And your imagination. 20 21 22 La Cucina Alessi by Oras La Cucina Alessi by Oras is the result of a project by the world-famous Alessi and Oras, with the goal of bringing both imagination and utmost functionality to the kitchen. The faucet series includes a faucet combination designed by Stefano Giovannoni and has two separate faucets: one for cooking (two-handle faucet) and one for washing hands (touchless faucet). Both faucets can be installed either on the same sink, side by side, or separately, so that a touchless faucet is mounted, for instance, on a washbasin. La Cucina Alessi by Oras The latest kitchen faucet in the La Cucina Alessi by Oras family is a single-lever faucet designed by Alessandro Mendini. A totally unique design with a high, sculptural spout appeals to the eye and creates a characterful effect to the kitchen. The faucet is also available, as standard, with a dishwasher valve. Oras Optima The story of this kitchen faucet began with a careful examination of all the needs you can have in the kitchen. It ends by presenting this contemporary faucet with all the imaginable user-friendly features. This kitchen faucet leads the way for all the other members of the Oras Optima family with its smartness, functionalities and design principles. The touchless function gives you a vivid water flow when you place your hands under the spout – hygienic and easy. With the two easy-grip levers you can quickly get cold or hot water. The tall design leaves plenty of space to operate under the spout. The kitchen faucet is also available with a smart dishwasher valve and a digital display which shows you the current water temperature. Design: Kirsi Svärd 23 Oras Aventa Oras Aventa truly combines modern design with ease of use and versatility. All the necessary adjustments can be handled with a single grip while the high position of the faucet gives you plenty of room to maneuver. And for those hardto-reach places, just pull out the extendable spout – and you’re done in no time! This is user-friendliness the Oras way. Design: Jorma Vennola. Oras Cubista Art becomes user-friendliness in our exceptionally wide Oras Cubista collection. The design and functionality have been strongly influenced by the geometrical forms of cubism: cones, cylinders and spheres. The range includes faucets for all water points at home: kitchen, bathroom and other sanitary facilities. The speciality of Oras Cubista kitchen faucets lie in the so called timedriven kitchen faucet; the connection valve for a dish washer closes automatically either after three or twelve hours – one can never forget it open. The arching spout of the Oras Cubista kitchen faucet makes Oras Cubista a true center-piece in the kitchen. While creating sufficient working space for washing the biggest pots and pans. Design: Kirsi Svärd. Oras Optima Oras Optima kitchen faucet with a stylish combination of chrome and deep grey is best suited to complete a modern kitchen. The wide space under a turnable spout facilitates the everyday kitchen routines. The easy-grip material of the lever is pleasant to touch, and the contrast of the colors makes the lever more visible. The water flow and temperature are both adjusted from the same handle. All materials used in connection with water are lead-free. The kitchen faucet is also available as a version with a smart dishwasher valve which closes automatically after the dishwasher program has finished. Design: Kirsi Svärd 24 Oras Vienda A faucet family that combines decades of experience with today’s thinking. The evolution of Oras core values in faucet design and user-friendliness has formed Oras Vienda into a very easy, intuitive and functional faucet for daily use. The water temperature and flow can be adjusted smoothly. The rounded shapes keep the faucet dry and stainless from drying water. This way the faucet surface is easy to keep clean and hygienic. The kitchen faucet has a high spout that gives more work space under the faucet. Due to its functionality, Oras Vienda also saves water and energy. When you take Oras Vienda, you can take it easy. Design: Kirsi Svärd. Oras Vega A faucet that began saving water in 1976. That year, we created our first singlelever faucet, designed to save water and energy. In developing the Oras Vega series, the starting point was to use existing and guaranteed Oras technology and to improve the usability of the faucet with the firm and user-friendly design. In the new Oras Vega, there is a compact lever with our eco-button, which makes it easier to save water and energy. When you open the faucet, water first flows at a limited – but mostly sufficient – economy flow-rate. If you need more water, just press the eco-button and simultaneously lift the lever and you will pass the standard flow-rate. Oras Vega is truly the original. In many modern variations. Oras Safira Oras Safira is our basic yet durable and versatile single-lever faucet family, offering an exceptionally wide range of faucets for both bathrooms and kitchen. Oras Safira also comes with a built-in limitaton option for water temperature and maximum flow-rate. To make your life easier. And like all our single-lever faucets, Oras Safira can be supplied with assist handles to accommodate users with special needs. These handles can be an advantage for the elderly or the disabled – and especially in situations where hygiene is top priority. Oras Saga Like our timeless classic, Oras Safira, you’ll find lots of lasting qualities in Oras Saga. Pure and simple forms tell the story: this faucet, in all its variations is built to be user-friendly – and to last. 25 26 In the Bathroom 27 28 Smart. Ecological. Luxurious. Luxury is not just elegance or beauty. Luxury is also functionality that best enables you to enjoy water in your everyday life. 29 If you remove the interior design and all the materials, what might be the bare essentials to make a bathroom Smart, Ecological and Luxurious? 30 31 Smart Here is where innovation and technology meet to make water smart. 32 33 34 Ecology To save water is to save energy. With Oras, you can take it to the extreme. Without compromising a drop of your showering pleasure. 35 36 Luxury Luxury is always tempting. And we just couldn’t resist inviting Alessi to join us make it happen. 37 Il Bagno Alessi One by Oras Il Bagno Alessi One by Oras is a beautifully designed bathroom system that includes numerous faucets, furniture, mirrors, lighting, bathtubs and bathroom accessories created in co-operation with Laufen and Inda. Also available are Il Bagno Alessi One by Oras touchless washbasin faucets, thus combining luxurious design with saving water and energy. Hygiene is complete with the Bidetta hand shower. User-friendliness is guaranteed by easily adjustable temperature regulation. And touchless faucets will not drip since their flow is automatically closed after washing. Design: Stefano Giovannoni. Il Bagno Alessi Dot by Oras Concentrate on the simplicity of a dot and you’re at core of luxurious design by Wiel Arets. The key design element, a circle, is shared by all the pieces. The same forms are repeated throughout the bathroom concept: the diameters of the faucets are the same size, all equal. All pure. And also suitable for bowl shaped basins. “The water flows from the faucets as freely as from a waterfall,” Wiel Arets describes. When the importance of pure harmony is essential. Oras Ventura Oras Ventura brings soft beauty and harmony to the bathroom. Smoothness of use and ease of keeping clean in crystallize in the touchless function of Oras Ventura. While also offering you the manual and intuitive single-lever feel, if you so wish. Complete your comfort with personal hygiene by combining Oras Bidetta with the Oras Ventura wash basin faucet.

As indeed it is all over the world. But maybe there’s something in the fact that the Nordic nature is so close to water, in all its forms, all year around. Maybe that sparked the ambition that we at Oras have had for over 65 years: to constantly explore and deliver user-friendly, smart, ecological, hygienic, luxurious and safe ways to enjoy water. The head office of the Group is located in Rauma, Finland, and the company’s factories are located in Rauma, Burglengenfeld (Germany), Kralovice (Czech Republic) and Olesno (Poland).

Due to decades of experience and our massive testing program we are proud to offer a five-year drop-free guarantee for our single lever faucets.

By adding electronics we have taken Oras user-friendliness on to yet a higher level. So, over the years we have moved on from pioneering thermostats to introducing ground-braking eco-buttons and automatic dish-washer valves – and all the way to being a leading developer and manufacturer of electronic faucets.
