The Gap

Antonio Bullo designed this collection to be both compact and functional. Its wide range allows for optimal use of any bathroom space. The modern and stylish lines make it an intelligent choice.

Access

A collection aimed at groups with reduced mobility who seek ergonomic, versatile and sophisticated solutions for the bathroom space. Quality, functionality and design at the service of wellness, comfort and convenience for all needs.

In-Wall

Systems that combine efficiency and technology to deliver the best performance.

Smart Shower

Imagine jumping out of bed, to find that the water in the bathroom is pre-heated for you at the perfect temperature. Imagine an intelligent control that allows you, with a simple gesture, to regulate temperature, modify the flow or pause it to lather up, and then resume at the touch of a button. Imagine having different customisable profiles so that you can configure the shower exactly to your liking. Imagine integrated cleaning programmes that eliminate bacteria and protect against staining from limescale and impurities. Stop imagining and make space for the new Roca Smart Shower.

Ona

Simple as nature. Ona pays homage to the diverse shapes of nature from our native Mediterranean. It is functional without ever appearing cold, with crisp aesthetics that follow the inherent warmth of the natural environment, made for those who enjoy the power of silent landscapes

Designed by Ennead Architects with Thomas Wong, the Shanghai Astronomy Museum combines scientific and cultural symbolism. Roca’s bathroom products were chosen for their clean, modern design and ability to withstand constant use in public spaces. The Gap WCs, Site urinals, Chic urinals concealed inlet, L20-E basin mixers and Berna undercounter basins offer a perfect balance of durability and style. The sensor-operated faucets and urinals provide a touch-free experience, improving hygiene and reducing water consumption at the same time. These features ensure that the bathrooms meet both the museum’s aesthetic standards and the practical requirements of maintaining a clean, durable space in high-traffic areas.

Roca's Khroma and Hall collections, energy-efficient Loft-E faucets, and Oslo compact WCs and Euret urinals were chosen for their distinctive designs and durability ideal for high-traffic areas. Combining aesthetic appeal with resilience and efficiency, these products met the demands of one of the world's most important events in a densely populated country.

Roca was chosen by the organisers of the Olympic Games because its products meet strict requirements in terms of water conservation. Accommodation in the Olympic Village, home to the 16,000 athletes who took part in the 2008 Olympic Games, is characterised by the use of renewable energy, including solar power to provide some of the lighting, and the collection and recycling of rainwater.

With a capacity of 42.968 people, it will also be capable of hosting other events such as shows, exhibitions and trade fairs.

The upgraded toilets feature Roca’s Hall and Beyond collections, which provide adaptable solutions for high-traffic areas, and L20 faucets with water-saving technology. The elegant Chic urinals are paired with Sentronic electronic urinal flushing systems, offering touch-free convenience for maximum hygiene. The Access collection improves accessibility for all visitors, creating a welcoming environment for all.
