Aycliffe based manu-facturer, Roman Limited, recently launched a new designer range of Shower Enclosures, the Decem Range. This new collection has been shortlisted as Product of the Year at the Northern Design Awards, which take place in Manchester on the 22nd November.
Also shortlisted for Plumbing Product of the year, at the national Build It awards, is their Roman Shield Complete Tanking Kit, which offers a quick and easy way to install a water-tight wetroom. The Kit has been shortlisted alongside two other products and the winner will be revealed on the 21st November.
David Osborne, Managing Director comments: “Our Complete Tanking Kit is no stranger to awards having two others, including the Homebuilding and Renovating Bathroom Product of the Year and the Kitchen’s, Bedrooms and Bathrooms Reader’s Choice Award for Best Bathroom Product. We are excited at the prospect of adding another award to the collection.”
The Decem Collection, manufactured at Aycliffe was launched in August this year and so far the feedback has been fantastic.
David comments; “Our retail partners have been extremely enthusiastic about the range and we have seen displays quickly being established UK-wide. The bespoke-ability of the range has also stimulated much interest from the contract market, with architects and specifiers excited about the option to create something totally made to measure.”
Roman’s Decem Range and Roman Shield Tanking Kits are available UK wide from specialist bathroom retailers. Mr. Osborne continues: “We are thrilled to have been shortlisted for two totally different product awards within such a short-space of time. The Build It Awards highlight products which are practical and easy to use, to make the installer’s life simple; whereas the Northern Design Awards focus on innovative and stunning product design. We are delighted to see that our product range fits into both of these briefs.
“We are particularly excited about the recognition of our new Decem Range for the Northern Design Awards – this is a range we have carefully developed and nurtured; that we have not only designed, but that we have also expertly manufactured right here in the UK. This range is a culmination of everything we have learnt about showering over the last 28 years, so to have been shortlisted for an award in these early stages after launch is fantastic.”
Roman has previously won a Northern Design Award for their Sculptures Range of enclosures.
