The New Orca tap from Franke - Eau so chic

New from Franke is the Orca spray tap, which offers a modern look with a series of cutting edge-design elements.

The Orca tap is similar in design to the popular Dolphin tap but offers a number of practical changes to the operation of the spray function.

New features include the innovative spray head, which you hold as if you were holding a computer mouse. This is a natural grip for many of us these days and therefore makes the handling of the spray function more convenient.

The Orca spray tap also features a cut away spout, which enables the spray head to be pulled out from the spout more easily than before. An ergonomic switch, situated where your thumb grips the spray head, also alternates the flow between normal and spray modes.

John Swain, product manager for Franke, commented: "As more and more people are opting for spray taps we have invested time in identifying ways in which we can improve the handling of the spray head and we believe the cut-away feature and the ‘computer mouse' style design of the Orca spray tap will make it easier to operate.

The Orca spray tap is also available without the spray function and in a choice of Chrome or SilkSteel.
