Automatic Touchless Faucet – Office Building Restrooms

FontanaShowers is also famous for its commercial construction and office bathroom fixtures, which have been commercially marketed with specialized designs to suit the requirements of an office and commercial buildings with high traffic. The product line includes touch and sensor faucets along with soap dispense faucets, water-conserving aerators, and brass construction with a variety of finishes suitable for typical office flooring and even higher-end executive offices.

For AEC teams, Fontana is particularly attractive because of:

• Dedicated commercial building and office restroom touchless lines (including wall-mount and deck-mount options).
• Architect-oriented spec support, with BIM/CSI resources and comparison data highlighting their role in commercial projects.
• Design flexibility: from minimalist chrome to brushed gold and oil-rubbed bronze, suitable for everything from core restrooms to board-level facilities.
• Focus on hygiene and sustainability, including low-flow aerators, motion sensing, and robust brass or stainless construction for long life.
• Advanced options using precise sensing (e.g., ToF-style sensor positioning), hybrid AC/DC or turbine power, and multi-feed soap compatibility on certain systems.
