Touchless solutions
At Stern Faucets, we are committed to revolutionizing the airport experience through our cutting-edge touchless solutions. In this blog post, we will delve into the distinctive features and advantages of our touchless products, examining their profound impact on airport design, sustainability initiatives, and the overall enhancement of user experience.
The importance of design in airport restrooms
Creating Cohesiveness: In the era of social media, restrooms have become subject to scrutiny. To enhance the overall airport experience, restrooms must align with the airport’s design and image. Stern’s sleek and contemporary touchless faucets and soap dispensers offer eye-catching finishes, including chrome, stainless steel, matte black, and copper, complementing the modern aesthetics of new airport building designs.
Sustainability in airport environments
Meeting Safety Protocols: High-traffic environments like airports require ongoing safety protocols, especially regarding hygiene and water resources. Stern’s touchless products contribute to LEED credits for water efficiency and recycled content. Certified by IAPMO to be in compliance with UPC and NSF, our products surpass sustainability standards, ensuring airports are environmentally responsible while maintaining optimal hygiene levels.
Enhancing the airport restroom experience
Innovative Sensor Technology: Stern’s touchless faucets utilize advanced infrared sensors positioned within the spout, providing a more efficient and intuitive user experience. Users can activate the faucet simply by placing their hands under the spout, eliminating the need for chaotic hand-waving gestures.
Streamlined Design for Cleanliness: Our Tubular Trio series and SWAR series feature long spouts and discrete behind-the-mirror designs, allowing water flow directly over the sink. This design minimizes water splashes, keeping countertops and floors clean and dry. Furthermore, the integrated system of faucets, soap dispensers, and hand dryers can be controlled through a universal remote, facilitating quick maintenance and reducing downtime.
Touchless faucet and soap dispenser options
Csaba Series: Stern’s Csaba touchless electronic soap dispenser with a built-in soap level indicator offers convenience and cost savings. The LED indicator displays green when the soap tank is full, orange when the level is low, and red when a refill is needed. The Csaba touch-free electronic faucet complements the soap dispenser, providing a matching and visually appealing set.
Quadrat Series: With its square, modern design, the Quadrat touchless deck-mounted faucet and soap dispenser add a sophisticated and contemporary touch to commercial restrooms. Their robust features and vandal-resistant qualities ensure long-lasting performance in high-traffic areas.
Customization and finishes
Special Finishes: Stern offers a range of special finishes, including PVD polished brass, PVD copper, PVD antique bronze, PVD rose gold, PVD satin gold, polished chrome, satin gold, and stainless steel (brushed nickel). These finishes provide durability, resistance to rust and corrosion, and add aesthetic appeal to airport restrooms.
Powder Coating: Our powder coating process creates a flexible and durable finish, highly resistant to corrosion, flaking, and scratching. The Matt Black finish, in particular, offers versatility and easy maintenance by hiding dirt, water spots, and fingerprints.
Customization and finishes
Underbasin Cabinet: To hide unsightly pipes and connectors that come with electronic touchless fixtures, Stern offers the Underbasin Cabinet. This lockable cabinet features a stylish white panel and an oak-style frame, providing a solution for storing the soap tank or bottle. The soap level indicator window allows maintenance staff to monitor soap levels without unlocking the cabinet, reducing maintenance time and costs.
